What is a .wubble project file?

A .wubble file is Wubble's proprietary project format that contains everything about your project in a single, portable file.

  • All audio tracks and their settings
  • Effects, mixing, and mastering settings
  • Project metadata (title, description, tags)
  • Version history and edit logs
  • AI generation parameters and prompts
  • Chat conversation history with the AI
  • Tempo, time signature, and arrangement data
  • All assets and references used in the project

When to export project files

Exporting project files is essential for various professional workflows and safety practices.

  • Backup: Create regular backups of important projects
  • Archival: Store completed projects long-term outside of Wubble
  • Transfer: Move projects between different Wubble accounts
  • Collaboration: Share editable projects with other Wubble users
  • Migration: Prepare for account transitions or team changes
  • Version control: Save milestone versions before major changes
  • Legal/contractual: Provide deliverables that clients can re-open

Project file vs. audio export

Understanding the difference between project files and audio exports helps you choose the right format for your needs.

  • Audio export (MP3, WAV, etc.): Final rendered audio for playback and distribution
  • Project file (.wubble): Fully editable project that can be reopened and modified
  • Audio exports are smaller and playable anywhere
  • Project files preserve all editability but require Wubble to open
  • Use audio exports for delivery, project files for archival and editing

Tips

  • Export project files regularly as part of your backup routine
  • Include source files if you want a completely self-contained backup
  • Disable version history for smaller file sizes if you don't need it
  • Use descriptive filenames: ProjectName_vX_YYYY-MM-DD.wubble
  • Store project files in multiple locations (local + cloud) for safety
  • Export before major changes so you can revert if needed
  • Consider exporting both project file and stems for maximum flexibility
  • Document any external dependencies (like custom samples) separately

Notes

  • Project file export is available on all plans, including Free.
  • File size varies based on project complexity and whether source files are included. Typical range: 5MB-500MB.
  • Project files can only be opened in Wubble. For use in other DAWs, export stems instead.
  • Version history can significantly increase file size. Disable if you only need the current state.
  • Exported project files are compatible with all Wubble accounts, including different plan levels.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I import a .wubble project file?

From your Wubble Studio dashboard, click "Import Project" or drag the .wubble file into your browser window. The project will be added to your library with all settings preserved.

Can I open .wubble files in other DAWs?

No, .wubble files are proprietary to Wubble and can only be opened in Wubble Studio. To use your project in other DAWs, export stems, MIDI, or audio files instead.

What's the difference between "Project Only" and "Include Source Files"?

Project Only exports your project structure and references. Include Source Files embeds all audio assets, creating a self-contained file. Use "Include Source Files" for complete backups or transfers.

Will imported projects use my storage quota?

Yes. When you import a project into your account, it counts toward your storage quota just like any other project. Consider your plan limits when importing large projects.

Can I share .wubble files with clients?

Yes, but clients will need a Wubble account to open them. For client delivery, audio exports (MP3, WAV) are usually more appropriate. Use .wubble files when clients need full edit access.

Are project files encrypted or secure?

Project files are not encrypted by default. If you need secure project storage, use Wubble's built-in project sharing with permissions instead of exporting files.

How long does it take to export a project file?

Small projects (5-10 tracks, no source files) export in seconds. Large projects with many tracks, effects, and embedded source files can take several minutes. You'll see a progress indicator during export.

Can I export multiple projects as .wubble files at once?

Yes! Use batch export and select ".wubble Project File" as the export format. All selected projects will be packaged and downloaded as a ZIP file.
