Frequently Asked Questions
Do I actually own my recording’s master?▼
Yes—you own the master of your song recording. The beat’s original master remains with its creator, but your finished track is yours to distribute and monetize.
Can I get the beat without vocals?▼
If you find a beat with vocals, search the site for that same title—often there’s a clean version available too.
Who clears the samples used in a beat?▼
Every sample, instrument, effect, and VST patch is pre-cleared by the producer. You can release and monetize immediately—everything’s licensed.
Are these licenses truly royalty-free?▼
Yes. NE-Lease, Premium, and Unlimited plans all grant 100% royalty-free usage. Pay once and keep all royalties—no hidden fees.
What file formats will I receive?▼
Your ZIP includes high-quality WAV and MP3 files. If your license includes stems, they arrive as separate WAV tracks.
Can I register my song with a PRO?▼
Yes—you can register your recording only. Exclude the beat’s composition in your filing, and no splits are required unless you choose to credit the composer.
Are all producer tags removed?▼
All voice tags, drops, and markers are stripped so your final mix is clean and ready for streaming or radio.
Can I tweak the beat to fit my song?▼
You’re free to adjust tempo, pitch, add or remove sounds—just use the track for song recordings, not for creating new instrumentals, and credit the producer (e.g., “Produced by 20DollarBeats.com”).
Can I copyright my finished track?▼
Yes—your lyrics, arrangement, and performance are protected as a derivative work. The beat’s copyright stays with its creator; your license terms still apply.
Is sync licensing included?▼
Sync rights (TV, film, ads, games) come with the Unlimited License only. You’ll need to present your non-exclusive license PDF to any placement partner.
What sales and streaming caps apply?▼
NE-Lease: 10,000 sales & 250,000 streams
Unlimited: No caps
You can upgrade at any time by paying the difference.
Do you offer exclusive rights?▼
Yes—if exclusive rights are available for a beat, they’ll be listed. If it’s marked sold or unavailable, contact us via email or live chat.
