After uploading the file to the AudioMicro you will need to enter information about the music track, also called “metadata”. We need a track title, description, a main category (optional subcategory), and at least 5 tags, separated by commas (3 words max per tags and a total of 50 words max). Please note that the more thorough your track information, the better your track will sell.  For additional tips about boosting your sales on our site, please read our FAQ section on "Selling Music on AudioMicro".

IMPORTANT NOTE: Remember to try and fill out the title, description, and tags boxes fully so more people can find your tracks. The more concise your descriptions and tags are, the more tracks you will sell. Remember to separate tags with a comma and keep total tag words to 50 or less per upload.

When you click on "my account" there's a field under "bio" for songwriter/composer, and the information you enter there follows all of your songs around, so it'll be known that you are the songwriter for all of them.

YES – there is a little red icon next to each Pending file and if you click this icon, your Pending file will be deleted.

After entering the information, AudioMicro will listen to your track within 1-2 business days and only if your content is disapproved will we send you a notification email. In most disapproval cases, we will provide the reason for disapproval. If you content is approved, it will go live into the AudioMicro archive immediately upon approval by our editors.

YES – you can edit and amend the Titles, Descriptions, and Tags from your “My Account” profile page

Our back end editors would be more than happy to create a new category / genre for you. Please contact us via email at Editors[at]AudioMicro.com and we will create the appropriate category for your work.

YES – you can request an FTP account by clicking the “Ftp Request” link on the right side of your “My Account” profile page. Once we approve your request, we will email you the login details and you can use an FTP client to transfer your content directly to our servers for speediness and ease of upload.

Yes - the site will extract all "titles" and map them to AudioMicro's "title" input field. In addition, the site will extract all "comments" and map them to AudioMicro's "tags" input fields. If you "title" and "tag" your tracks locally before uploading, our system will extract this data for you, thereby saving you valuable time. Please be advised that we are diligently working to improve many aspects of the site as we are still in beta mode and we will be for quite some time.

Here are some guidelines for you:

- if you upload the file in .wav format, our clients have the choice of downloading the file in wav, aif, or mp3.
 
- if you upload in .aif, our clients have the choice of downloading the file in .aif, .wav, or .mp3.

- if you upload in .mp3, they have the choice of downloading the file in only in .mp3 format.

You are free to upload the files in whichever format you choose.  We try not to have duplicate files (i.e. a .mp3 version and a .wav version) wherever possible, and we always prefer the higher quality files (.wav and .aif).

If you go into the My Account profile page, you can see the status of each track that you have submitted to us that has been approved. Please note that if a track says inactive in red next to it, this means that we originally accepted your tracks and that our back end editors (upon a second or tertiary review) decided to inactivate your content.
