​
Why These Fields Matter

Accurate musical attributes help buyers:
  • Match the beat to their vocal range
  • Find the right mood quickly
  • Search by tempo and song feel
  • Avoid downloading or purchasing something that does not fit the session

​
Best Practices

Do not guess if you can avoid it. Wrong tempo data makes the beat harder to use.
Buyers often rely on key data when planning toplines and arrangements.
Enter the BPM that best reflects how the beat is commonly understood and produced.
