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.
