Upload your first beat

Learn how to upload your first beat, add artwork and metadata, configure audio previews, and prepare it for sale.

Upload your first beat

This guide explains how to upload your first beat in Banaslap Studio and prepare it for your store.

A beat can include artwork, metadata, audio preview, license options, downloadable files, membership access, and publishing settings.

Before you start

Before uploading your first beat, make sure you have:

  • installed Banaslap Studio;
  • activated your license;
  • connected Stripe if you want to sell paid licenses;
  • prepared your beat files;
  • prepared your artwork;
  • decided which licenses you want to offer.

Step 1: Open the beat editor

In your WordPress dashboard, open Banaslap Studio and go to the beat management area.

Click the button to add a new beat.

This opens the beat upload page where you can configure the track, license options, membership access, and publishing status.

Step 2: Add artwork

Upload the artwork for your beat.

Artwork helps customers recognize the track visually and gives your store a more professional look.

Recommended artwork:

  • square format;
  • high resolution;
  • clean visual identity;
  • no unnecessary text if the title is already displayed by the store;
  • consistent style across your catalog.

After upload, Banaslap Studio shows a live artwork preview so you can check how it will appear in the catalog and player.

Step 3: Add beat details

Fill in the main beat information:

  • title;
  • BPM;
  • duration;
  • genre;
  • tags;
  • instruments.

Use metadata carefully. It helps customers search, filter, and understand your beat faster.

For example, a beat can include:

  • Genre: Afrobeat
  • Tags: summer, happy, dancehall
  • Instruments: guitar, drums, bass

Keep tags useful and specific. Avoid adding too many generic tags.

Step 4: Upload the sample MP3

Upload the sample MP3 that customers will preview on your store.

This file is used for listening, not for final delivery.

The sample should be optimized for fast playback while still sounding professional.

Avoid uploading the full high-quality master as the public preview if you want to protect your final files.

Step 5: Configure license options

Banaslap Studio allows you to sell beats with multiple license options.

Common license examples include:

  • MP3 lease;
  • WAV lease;
  • stems license;
  • exclusive license.

For each license, you can define the price, included files, usage rules, and delivery options.

Banaslap Studio can also generate a professional license document automatically when a customer purchases a beat.

Step 6: Configure downloadable files

Attach the files that customers should receive after purchase.

Depending on your license setup, this can include:

  • MP3;
  • WAV;
  • stems;
  • trackouts;
  • license PDF.

Make sure each license gives access only to the files that belong to that license.

For example, an MP3 license should not automatically deliver stems unless you intentionally allow it.

Step 7: Configure membership access

If you use memberships, decide whether the beat should be available to members.

You can use membership access for:

  • member-only beats;
  • VIP Early Access;
  • Private Drops;
  • exclusive downloads;
  • special catalog access.

If the beat is public, all visitors can see it according to your store settings.

If the beat is private or members-only, only eligible customers or members should be able to access it.

Step 8: Set the publishing status

Before publishing, review the beat carefully.

Check:

  • artwork;
  • title;
  • BPM;
  • genre;
  • tags;
  • sample MP3;
  • license prices;
  • downloadable files;
  • membership access;
  • publishing status.

When everything is ready, publish or update the beat.

Sold and unavailable beats

Banaslap Studio can also mark a beat as sold or unavailable depending on your setup.

This is useful when:

  • a beat has been sold exclusively;
  • a beat should stay visible but no longer be purchasable;
  • you want to keep a track online as part of your catalog history.

If a beat is sold, the buy button should not allow customers to purchase it again.

Recommended first test

After publishing your first beat, open your public store and test the customer experience.

Check that:

  • the beat appears in the catalog;
  • the artwork displays correctly;
  • the audio preview plays;
  • license options open correctly;
  • checkout works;
  • downloads are delivered after purchase;
  • the license document is generated if enabled.

Troubleshooting

If the beat does not appear publicly, check that:

  • the beat is published;
  • the store shortcode or page is configured;
  • the beat is not private;
  • the category or visibility settings allow it to display;
  • the catalog cache has refreshed.

If the audio does not play, check that:

  • the sample MP3 was uploaded correctly;
  • the file URL is accessible;
  • your server allows audio streaming;
  • the browser is not blocking playback.

If downloads are missing after purchase, check that each license has the correct files attached.
