BEAT BUYING FAQ
How are the beat(s) delivered to me?
Your beat(s) will be instantly available for download directly from the order summary page once you checkout and your payment has been processed. You will also receive a confirmation email with the download links.
Are the beats still tagged when I buy a license?
All tags are removed from licensed beats except One Signature intro tag. Regardless of which license you purchase.
Which payment methods do you accept?
We accept PayPal and Credit Card (Stripe) payments.
Once I purchase a beat, will it be removed from the beatstore?
Only if you purchase the Exclusive Rights to the beat can you ask that the beat be taken down. If not, the beat will stay on the site for another artists to lease until someone buys the Exclusive Rights.
Can I purchase beats from my mobile device?
Yes, but certain mobile devices can have compatibility issues when downloading the files directly to the phone. It is advisable to download the files to your desktop or laptop using the link in the confirmation email you’ll receive after a successful checkout. Don’t worry if you navigate away from the order summary page on your phone, you’ll be linked back to it in the email to get your files.
How can I access the beat(s) I just purchased?
Download links to the beat files and license agreement will appear on your order summary page once you complete the checkout process. Additionally, an email will be sent to the address provided at checkout with the download links immediately after purchase. Be sure to check your spam folder if you don’t see the email right away.
What are trackouts?
Trackouts (also known as stems) are the individual audio files that make up a beat, meaning each sound within the beat will be sent as a separate high quality WAV audio file. Leases that include stems are ideal if you plan on recording your song in a professional studio and want to have full control over mixing each instrument around your vocals.
What does it mean to "lease" a beat?
When you purchase a beat lease, you are simply buying the rights to use the beat in a limited and non-exclusive capacity. WNZ retains full copyright ownership over the composition and is allowed to continuously sell non-exclusive licenses of that same beat to other artists until someone purchases the Exclusive Rights to the beat. At that point, the beat will be immediately marked as sold from our beat store and ownership rights are granted to the purchaser.
What happens if I exceed the streaming/unit sale limit of my current lease?
You must upgrade your lease to the next tier by contacting us. The cost of the upgrade is simply the price of the new lease minus the amount you already paid for your original lease.
What if I purchase a non-exclusive license and then later on, someone else purchases the exclusive rights?
The purchase of Exclusive Rights to a beat does not impact the status or validity of previous licensees so you do not need to remove your music from streaming services, social media, etc. for the full term of your lease agreement.
What's the difference between an unlimited license and an exclusive?
The usage rights are the same for both: you get unlimited sales, streams, etc. The difference is, if you purchase the Exclusive, the ownership rights to the beat are transferred to you and the beat is immediately marked as on our beat store, never to be sold to another artist again. The Unlimited License is still non-exclusive, so even though you get the same usage rights as if you owned the Exclusive, the beat will remain in our beat store for others to lease or buy.

*** How do I send you songs to mix/master?
Watch this quick video on sending songs off for mixing and mastering.

What's included in the "Tune Me Up" Package?
I know this is a not the normal package offered by other engineers but this "Tune Me Up" Package includes vocal pitch correction with natural sounding tools and auto tune. This does not include mixing or mastering but this tuning package is included in the mixing package at no additional cost.
Can I give you a rough mix to use as a reference?
YES, of course! If you have a rough mix of your song, please include it along with your song track out so I can get a feel of where you want the song to be when its finished.
What do you need to mix my song?
In a perfect world, We would like the beat tracked out and the vocal tracked out all in .wav format. Although that may not always be possible bare minimum, we need your vocal tracks separated out in .wav and at least a .wav or mp3 version of the beat.
What do you need to master my song?
In a perfect world, We would like a mixed .wav file with at least 6db of headroom. Although that may not always be possible bare minimum, we need your mixed .wav file without any limiters on the master bus in your session.
