Technical Specifications for Audio Distribution

To guarantee maximum sound fidelity and compliance with international digital store standards (like Apple Music, Spotify, and Tidal), your material must be exported under the following parameters:

1. File Format

Type: Files must be WAV. Note: compressed formats (MP3, AAC, WMA) are not accepted due to data loss during transcoding.

2. Resolution and Sample Rate

For professional (Lossless) audio quality, the following minimum values are required:

  • Sample Rate: Minimum 44.1 kHz (48 kHz or higher recommended for high-resolution formats).
  • Bit Depth: 16-bit or 24-bit.

3. Channel Configuration

Audio must strictly be Stereo. Mono files can cause processing errors on certain streaming platforms.
