The purchase is completed through the checkout associated with the OC Beats catalog. Any account or customer information required to complete the transaction will be indicated during checkout.

You will first select the license you want for the beat. You can then review your order and continue through the secure checkout process.

After the payment is successfully confirmed, the files and license associated with your purchase are made available through the delivery process.

Yes. You can purchase licenses for multiple beats. Each beat remains subject to the license selected for that specific instrumental.

Once you have selected a beat and your license, continue to checkout. The available payment options will be displayed before you confirm your order.

The payment methods currently available to you are displayed directly during checkout. Available options may vary depending on the checkout provider, your location and the transaction.

Always refer to the options shown at checkout before confirming your purchase.

Payments are processed through the checkout system used for the OC Beats catalog. Payment details are handled through the payment infrastructure presented during checkout rather than directly through this website.

For standard beat licenses, the files included with your purchase are delivered after successful payment confirmation through the catalog's delivery process.

The exact files you receive depend on the license selected at checkout.

First, verify the email address used during your purchase and check your spam or junk folder for any purchase or delivery message.

If you still cannot access your files, contact OC Beats with your order information so the purchase can be checked.

Your checkout confirmation provides the record of your purchase. Keep your order confirmation and license information for your records.

Purchasing a license gives you permission to use an OC Beats instrumental under the conditions of the license you selected.

The license defines matters such as the files included, license duration, distribution limits, streaming rights, video usage, performances and other permitted uses.

A non-exclusive license allows you to use the beat according to your license while OC Beats retains ownership of the instrumental and may continue to license that same beat to other artists.

Yes. While a beat remains available under non-exclusive licensing, it may be licensed to multiple artists. Each artist receives rights according to their own purchased license.

Licensed beats can be used for releases on streaming platforms when that use is permitted by your selected license.

Your streaming and distribution limits depend on the license you purchased, so review those limits before releasing your song.

YouTube and music-video usage depends on the license selected. Check the video and monetization rights included with your license before publishing or monetizing your content.

Your license defines the rights granted for the recording you create using the beat. Any separate publishing, royalty or ownership provisions remain subject to the terms of that license.

Performance rights are included according to the conditions of the license you purchase. Check your license terms before using the song for a commercial or ticketed performance.

Radio broadcasting is not included with every license. Some higher-tier licenses provide broader broadcasting rights, so verify the radio allowance associated with your selected license.

If your project grows beyond the rights provided by your current license, contact OC Beats before exceeding those limits.

Available upgrade options will depend on the beat, your existing license and the rights still available at that time.

Exclusive licensing is handled separately from the standard non-exclusive licenses.

Rights associated with purchases made before an exclusive sale are governed by the terms of the licenses already issued. Always retain a copy of your purchase confirmation and license agreement.

MP3 is a compressed audio format designed to keep file sizes relatively small. WAV is an uncompressed format that preserves higher audio quality and is generally preferred for professional recording, mixing and mastering workflows.

Track stems are separate audio files for the main elements of the instrumental rather than one single stereo beat file.

They provide significantly more control when mixing your song because individual parts of the production can be balanced and processed separately.

• Basic: MP3.
• Premium: MP3 + WAV.
• Trackout: MP3 + WAV + track stems.
• Unlimited: MP3 + WAV + track stems.

Always verify the selected license before checkout in case the offer associated with a particular beat is updated.

The files delivered with your purchase are the files associated with the selected license. Check the product information shown before purchase for the exact file delivery details.

Depending on the files included with your license, your engineer may be able to make arrangement and mixing adjustments for your recording.

For more substantial production changes or a beat designed specifically around your song, a custom beat is the better option.

Yes. Custom beats are created specifically around your project, artistic direction and references rather than selected from the existing catalog.

Start by contacting OC Beats with information about your project, the style you are looking for and any useful references.

The production can then be developed around your artistic direction. Scope, revisions, delivery and rights are agreed according to the custom project.

Yes. Reference tracks are useful for communicating the atmosphere, energy, instrumentation, tempo or general direction you want to explore.

They are used as creative references rather than as material to reproduce or copy.

Revisions can be included in a custom production. The exact number and scope are defined when the project is agreed so that both sides know what is included before production begins.

Yes. Vocal mixing can include vocal cleaning and balancing, processing and effects, optional tuning and integration of the vocals with the beat.

Yes. Full mix and mastering is available for projects requiring work on both the instrumental and vocals, followed by final mastering for release.

Final delivery can include high-quality WAV and MP3 files prepared for distribution.

Contact OC Beats before sending your session files. You will receive the information required to prepare and transfer your audio correctly for the project.

Where producer credit is required by your license, OC Beats should be identified in the credits associated with your release.

A clear producer credit can be written as:

Produced by OC Beats

Include the credit in the relevant release metadata, description or credits where appropriate.

Registration with a performing rights organization such as SACEM, BMI, ASCAP or another relevant organization must respect the publishing and ownership provisions contained in your license.

Review your license before registering the work and contact OC Beats if you need clarification regarding the producer's share or information required for registration.

Content ID usage is subject to the terms of your license. Do not register or claim rights beyond those granted by the license you purchased.

If you are unsure whether your intended Content ID use is permitted, contact OC Beats before submitting the recording.

Keep your purchase confirmation and license agreement. Contact OC Beats with the beat title, the license purchased and a clear description of the issue.

Providing those details from the beginning will make it easier to review your situation.

Use the OC Beats contact page for questions about licenses, purchases, custom beats, mixing and mastering or any other project-related request.
