Add a track

Click New track on Home, or open Catalog and click Create Track at the right end of the toolbar.

• You now see the Create Track dialog.

Type the Track Name and start typing the Artist Name. Pick the artist from your roster and Location is set to their folder; otherwise choose a folder under Location yourself. Click Create Track.

• You now see the new track open on its Summary tab.

Open the Metadata tab and click a value to edit it where it is. Fill in genre, language, ISRC, key and BPM. As soon as you change something, a bar appears at the bottom of the page; click Save in it to keep your edits.

• You now see the values in place and the unsaved-changes bar gone.
• If you leave the page without clicking Save, your edits are lost.

Open the Files tab and click Upload Files, or drag the files anywhere onto the tab. The first audio file you add is marked Main Audio and the first image becomes the Cover Art.

• You now see the files listed with their Main Audio and Cover Art badges.

Go back to Metadata and click Edit on the Credits card. Type the person’s Full Name, select every role they had, and click Add Person. Repeat for everyone who worked on the track, then click Save Credits.

• You now see everyone you added on the Credits card, grouped by role.

Open the Package tab. Under Release package status you’ll see four checks: Audio, Cover art, Metadata and Credits. A tick means that part is in place. Anything without a tick still needs work before you share the release.

• You now see exactly what, if anything, is still missing from the release.
