Uploading high-quality audio is one of the most important steps before distributing your music. Artist OS validates your files before they are submitted for release.

Supported Formats

  • Lossless WAV files are recommended.
  • Use the original mastered version.
  • Keep the same sample rate and bit depth for all tracks in a release.

Before Uploading

  • Verify that every track is the final master.
  • Check for clipping or unwanted silence.
  • Confirm track titles match the metadata.
  • Use clear file names for easier management.

Validation

Artist OS checks uploaded files for common problems before allowing distribution, helping reduce release delays.

Best Practices

  • Keep a backup of every master.
  • Do not replace audio after final approval unless absolutely necessary.
  • Listen to every uploaded file before scheduling your release.
