Converting an MP3 to WAV meets the format requirement, but it can't bring back detail the MP3 already lost. When you can, export WAV straight from your session.

Why WAV?

  • DISTRIBUTORS REQUIRE ITMost distributors only accept WAV (16 or 24-bit, 44.1 kHz). MP3 uploads get rejected or re-encoded badly.
  • WHAT YOU GETStandard 16-bit / 44.1 kHz stereo WAV, the exact format stores expect.
  • FILE SIZEWAV is roughly 10 MB a minute, about ten times an MP3. That's normal.
Your file's ready. Is your rollout?Give the Studio your release date and it builds a researched 30-day release plan around it. One plan a month is free.

Does DistroKid accept MP3?

DistroKid accepts MP3 but recommends WAV. TuneCore, CD Baby and most other distributors want WAV or FLAC. Uploading WAV avoids a second round of compression in the stores.

16-bit or 24-bit?

16-bit / 44.1 kHz is CD quality and is accepted everywhere. If your session exported 24-bit, keep that original: it's the better master.

Is my song uploaded anywhere?

No. The conversion happens in your browser using your own device, so unreleased music stays on your computer or phone.
