Overview

Draft Beats allow you to prepare your listings before customers can see them. This gives you time to upload files, configure pricing, add collaborators and review every detail before publishing.

What You Can Do

  • Edit beat information.
  • Upload or replace audio files.
  • Configure license pricing.
  • Add collaborators.
  • Upload artwork.
  • Review before publishing.

Creating Drafts

Drafts are created automatically when you save an unfinished beat or when using Bulk WAV Import. You can return at any time to complete the listing.

Draft beats are never visible to customers and cannot be purchased until they are published.

  • Confirm BPM and musical key.
  • Upload preview, MP3, WAV and stems if available.
  • Set all license prices.
  • Review collaborator splits.
  • Upload professional artwork.

Managing Drafts

Drafts can be edited, duplicated or deleted without affecting your live storefront. Organize them regularly to keep your catalog clean.

Best Practices

  • Complete all metadata before publishing.
  • Use consistent naming for your beats.
  • Review every uploaded file.
  • Double-check pricing.
  • Publish only finished listings.

Common Questions
