1. Import a Release from Beatport

If your releases are already on Beatport you can effortlessly import your label releases into Label Engine.

This function is accessible by clicking on Catalogue Menu

Type your label name exactly as is on Beatport and just select the releases you want to import and hit the

button.

This function will import your releases metadata including:

Release Artist

Release title

Low resolution cover artwork

Cat #

ISRC

Original release date

Genre

**** This function will only upload the 2-minute mp3 Beatport clip but not the full Wav files.

2. Upload Release via XML

If you have release data xml in Baseware or FUGA format, you can upload it here to automatically create a release.

Baseware

Please only upload xml files created using the Baseware Remote. Songwriter and territory information will be added into individual tracks as notes.

Fuga

Please only upload xml created according to the FUGA Delivery Specification. Territory information will be added to the release as a note. If a genre match for each track is not found it will be added into the track as a note.

Labels and artists will be created if they do not already exist - please be sure to review the release carefully once it has been imported and merge any that you think are duplicates.

You can also upload entire folders created using Baseware through the FTP system and they will be processed correctly to include the uploaded tracks and artwork - FTP Repository.
