TIDAL FAQ

Do I need a special file for TIDAL?

A 16-bit, 44.1 kHz WAV is the standard. Want it louder and cleaner first? Our engineers can master it for $79 per track.

How long does it take?

Set your release date at least 30 days out for the smoothest launch. Need it sooner? Our Expedite service gets your release to stores within 48 hours.

Do I keep the rights to my music?

Distributing with Octiive doesn't change who owns your music. You give us permission to deliver it and collect your royalties, and that's it.

Can I move from another distributor without losing my streams?

Yes. Re-upload with the same audio, artwork, ISRC and UPC codes and original release date. Once the Octiive version is live, ask your old distributor to take theirs down.
