Audio Fingerprinting

During upload, your track is automatically analyzed for:
  • Duplicate detection — Ensures the same audio hasn’t been uploaded before
  • Content protection — Creates a unique identifier for licensing
If a duplicate is detected, the upload will be blocked and you’ll see details about the existing track. See Audio Fingerprinting for more information.

Before saving, you’ll need to indicate the sample clearance status:

Cleared

Your track is 100% original or uses fully cleared samples. Safe for commercial licensing.

Needs Clearance

See Sample-Safe Warranty for details.

Tips for Success

Good: “Midnight Trap Vibes” Not so good: “beat_final_v2”
More tags = more discoverability. Think about what artists might search for.
Tell listeners about the vibe, inspiration, or intended use of your beat.
WAV or FLAC formats preserve the quality of your productions.
