Upload a Version
Create and release versions of your Loops & Audio packs
As with all products on MuseHub, Loops & Audio pack releases are grouped into Versions.
After you've created the product and filled out the general details, you can proceed to creating a new version by clicking the "+ Add" button from the Versions tab.
Version Type:
Beta: this will release the pack to a special list of beta testers only. For mor einformation, see: "Set up Beta Testing"
Release: This sets the product to release immediately to MuseHub. Your product may be held for Content Review; after passing review it is made available immediately on MuseHub.
Version: Set a version number for this release. This usually will be 1.0.0 and increment from there.
What's New: This section is typically empty for Loops & Audio packs. However, if you update a pack to fix issues (e.g., loop point problems) or add new content, highlight the changes here.
Description: You can add an extended description for the version here.
Genres: choose the genre(s) for the pack. E.g a pack of "House vocals" may simply have the genre: "house". Fewer is better!
Instruments (optional): Outline the instruments used here for better search results at a pack level.
Tags (optional): You can add optional, additional tags to help surface the pack in search results. for example, "House Vocals" may have some additional tags of "a capella, auto-tuned, processed, chart".
EULA: If you have a specific license agreement, you can enter/copy and paste it here. If this is left blank, the standard MuseHub EULA will be displayed
User guide: If your product has a user guide or content list, you can upload this (PDF format only) here.
Knowledge Base Document: Upload a PDF, RTF, or TXT file to enhance customer support. This resource can be used by our support agents or through an AI support bot to improve domain-specific knowledge and provide automatic responses to common product queries.
Previews: Upload an audio (mp3, .m4a) here; this will be displayed on featured product cards, and on your product page. This demo should showcase the sounds contained within the pack.
Upload Loops & Audio
Click the "Loops & Audio" tab to upload your audio content.
There are 4 main ways to ingest content:
Individual sound upload. This may be relevant if you're releasing a pack of production music, with relatively few but longer/larger tracks.
Batch Upload: the same as a single audio file upload, but you can drag n' drop or select mulitople audio files at once.
Zip upload: The most common scenario will be to upload a zip that contains your audio content. As such, this method has the most flexibility and options.
Upload a zip
There are two supported formats for the Loops & Audio pack zip file:
With a CSV file containing a list of audio files and their metadata
CSV file should have file_name or filename column containing a file name or a path to the file inside the zip in case of a nested folder structure.
All supported columns:
file_name or filename (required) - file name or a path to the file inside the zip
category - UCS category (e.g, MUSICAL). For more information, see https://universalcategorysystem.com)
subCategory - UCS sub-category (e.g, PERCUSSION for MUSICAL category)
title or title - audio file title. If not provided, the file name without the extension is used.
tags - comma separated list of tags
description - Free-form description. If tags are not provided, the description is used to extract tags.
genre - musical genre. Single value, e.g., ROCK
key or sample_key - musical key of the audio file. Single value, e.g., C or Am
bpm - beats per minute. Single value, e.g., 120
instrument_name - Instruments. Commas separated list, e.g., guitar, bass, drums
sample_type - Sample type. Enum loop or one_shot. If not provided, the type is determined by the USC category. Defaults to one_shot
Zip file can include only the CSV file, without the actual sample files. This can be used if you want to update only the metadata of the existing audio files. For this mode to work you should upload a .zip file with only a CSV inside, then check the "Allow metadata-only updates" checkbox before you submit.
Without a CSV file
In this case, the zip must contain the actual sample files and metadata will be extracted from the file names. The file names should follow this pattern:publisher_pack_bpm_instrument_tag1_tag2_tag3...tagN_key.wav
Examples:
91V_GO_100_synth_arp_arcade_high_Bm.wav
AQU_80_vocal_hook_wet_sunset_bliss_harmony_A#.wav
AI Audio Tagger
After uploading a zip file, you can choose whether or not to augment or supplement the results with additional tags provided by our Muse Audio Tagger. This is an AI based classifier that will try and add tags based on the audio content of the file itself, including tempo, key, instrument and other descriptors. If you have detailed and accurate CSV information, you should turn this off. If you are using the file name scheme or have no metadata supplied within the file, you may want to leave this on.
