License presets let you save an exclusive license configuration and reuse it on future beats. They are useful when you want consistent exclusive terms without rebuilding the same setup every time.

What a Preset Stores

A BeatPass exclusive preset stores the license configuration itself, including:
  • Publishing split
  • Territory
  • Governing law country
  • Usage rights
  • Files to deliver
  • Producer royalty
  • Content ID and other exclusive toggles
Presets are for the exclusive configuration. Price and other track-specific choices should still be reviewed on each beat.

Why Use Presets?

Consistency

Keep your exclusive terms consistent across similar beats.

Speed

Apply a known-good configuration instead of rebuilding it every time.

Variants

Maintain different setups for different catalog tiers or buyer types.

How Presets Work in the Producer UI

The current producer UI exposes preset selection on the exclusive configuration form:
  • Choose a saved preset from the preset selector to load its terms.
  • Use the Use Default action to load the platform’s default exclusive configuration instead.
  • One preset can be marked as the default — making it the easiest starting point for new exclusive-capable tracks.
Full preset creation and management (creating, editing, deleting presets) may be handled through a separate workflow or admin surface. The track form itself focuses on applying an existing preset to the current beat.

Preset Data Model

Each preset tracks:
  • Name — a descriptive label you give the preset.
  • Description — optional notes about when to use it.
  • Default flag — whether this preset auto-loads for new tracks.
  • Usage count — how many tracks currently reference this preset.
  • In-use protection — BeatPass blocks deletion when tracks still use the preset.

Editing and Updating

Editing a preset does not retroactively change tracks that already used it. Existing sold or published beats keep the terms that were saved with them.

Deleting a Preset

BeatPass blocks preset deletion when tracks still reference it. To delete one:
  1. Update the affected tracks to use a different preset or configuration.
  2. Return to the preset manager.
  3. Delete the now-unused preset.

Best Practices

  • Use clear preset names like Standard Exclusive or Premium Exclusive.
  • Keep one default preset for your most common deal structure.
  • Create separate presets only when the terms genuinely differ.
  • Review older presets occasionally to ensure they match your current approach.
