Orbit
The music server built for serious collectors.
About
Orbit is a self-hosted music server designed for audiophiles, vinyl collectors, and classical music enthusiasts who demand more than basic playback. Most music servers treat your library as a flat collection of files. They don't understand that your 1975 original pressing sounds different from your 2015 Mobile Fidelity remaster. They can't tell the difference between Beethoven's Symphony No. 5 conducted by Karajan versus Furtwängler. Orbit does.
Features
- Multiple versions per album — Every pressing, remaster, and edition tracked separately. Mark your favorite with a note explaining why.
- Vinyl-first design — Track pressing details, label, matrix number, condition, equipment chain. Full Discogs integration.
