    • Starter Plan


Overview

In this article, you will learn how to pre-set all of your tracks' metadata for your future uploads using track preferences. Presetting your track metadata saves time when uploading beats and ensures your tracks use consistent tags, genres, descriptions, and pricing. Once configured, these defaults will automatically apply to all future uploads, helping you publish tracks faster and keep your catalogue organised. Please see the instructions below.

Step-by-step Guide:

  1. Log in to your BeatStars Account.
     
  2. Navigate to the "Content > Tracks" section of your Studio.
     
  3. Click on the "Track Preferences" button near the top right of the page.
     
  4. If this is your first time setting your track preferences, click the "Set up preferences" button in the window that appears.

     
  5. In the "Default Metadata" section, you can pre-set all of your tracks' metadata for future uploads. Use the "Tags", "Genre", "Moods", "Instruments", "Description", "Track release", and "Track visibility" fields to pre-set the metadata for your future uploads as desired.

    Alternatively, you can toggle on the AI autofill button to enable AI to preset the selected fields for you.

  8. Click the "Save changes" button when finished.

Troubleshooting:

My presets didn’t apply to my upload

  • Make sure you saved your Track Preferences.

  • Presets only apply to new uploads, not existing tracks.

I want different metadata for one track

  • You can edit metadata during the upload process or later in the Track Editor.
