Licences
What you can do with each beat depending on the licence you buy. These are the industry-standard limits — the same ones BeatStars uses.
| MP3 | MP3 + WAVBest seller | Trackout | Unlimited | Exclusive | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Price | €30 | €50 | €100 | €200 | On request |
| What you get | 320 kbps MP3 | 24-bit WAV + MP3 | Separate stems + WAV + MP3 | Separate stems + WAV + MP3 | Everything + signed contract |
| Streams | 100,000 | 200,000 | 250,000 | Unlimited | Unlimited |
| Units sold | 5,000 | 10,000 | 10,000 | Unlimited | Unlimited |
| Music videos | 1 | 1 | 1 | Unlimited | Unlimited |
| Radio stations | 2 | 2 | 2 | Unlimited | Unlimited |
| Paid live shows | No | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes |
These limits are a summary so you can take it in at a glance. The licence contract you receive on purchase is the document that governs.
Does the file I buy have the tag on it?
No. The «ProdByLB» tag is only on the previews here. What you download after buying is completely clean.
Do I have to credit you?
Yes, on every licence except a separately negotiated exclusive: put «Prod. by Left Behind» in the title or the description.
What if I go over the limits?
Message me and we move up to the next licence, paying the difference. No penalty — usually it just means the song is working.
Can I register the song with a rights society?
Yes, as long as you credit me as producer in the registration. On exclusives we discuss it case by case.
What is the exclusive licence?
The beat is removed from the store and nobody else can buy it. A contract is signed and the usage rights become yours alone.
