Answers, guides, and licensing know-how

Everything you need to license confidently — from picking the right tier to clearing your edit on YouTube and broadcast.

Getting Started

How to license your first track

Browse the catalog, preview a track in the bottom player, and click License Track. Pick the tier that matches your project — Personal, Commercial, or Enterprise — and complete checkout. Your license certificate and full-quality WAV/MP3 files are delivered instantly to your email.

Getting Started

Finding the right track fast

Use the style chips (Cinematic, Lo-Fi, Electronic, Ambient, Hip-Hop) to narrow the catalog, then scan the BPM and Mood columns to match the energy of your edit. The waveform preview shows dynamic range at a glance — flat waveforms suit underscoring, peaky waveforms suit montages.

License FAQ

What rights do I get?

Every Sonabite license is royalty-free, perpetual, and worldwide. Personal covers non-monetized social posts and student work. Commercial covers monetized video, ads, podcasts, and client deliverables for a single brand. Enterprise covers unlimited brands, broadcast, and theatrical use with full indemnity.

License FAQ

Indemnity and clearance

Tracks are 100% original compositions from independent artists who have signed exclusive agreements with Sonabite. We provide written indemnity on every Commercial and Enterprise license, so YouTube and Meta Content ID disputes are handled by our rights team — usually cleared within 24 hours.

Downloads & Files

Free previews vs. licensed files

The Free Preview Download button delivers a 128kbps MP3 watermarked for layout-only use. After purchase, you receive lossless 24-bit/48kHz WAV, 320kbps MP3, and stems where available — perfect for color-mixed deliverables and broadcast.

Account & Billing

Where to find past licenses

All your purchased licenses live under My Account. Each entry includes the original track, the license tier, the certificate PDF, and re-downloadable source files. Licenses never expire and can be re-downloaded as many times as you need.

Refund policy

Because licenses unlock immediate access to lossless files, all sales are final once files are downloaded. If you haven't downloaded yet, we offer a 7-day refund — initiate it from the receipt link in your confirmation email.

Troubleshooting

Audio won't play in the preview

Make sure your browser allows audio autoplay for sonabite.com and that no other tab is holding the audio output device. Safari users: enable 'Auto-Play' under Settings for this website. If the bottom player shows a track but the timeline isn't advancing, refresh the page — the player state persists across navigation.
