When creating release, says audio file already used

Hello Everyone,
I am having an issue creating a release. I uploaded files but could not complete the release as my browser seemed to have a problem at check-out. I restarted the browser but did not see the release so started it again.

I get a message now that the audio files are already used and cannot complete the release for this reason. Is there a way I can reset this, or that I can find the previously started release? Thank you so much!

Best wishes,
Liana

Thank you for your reply.
I see I have the songs in my library twice but did not yet find how to delete them. I see the first-attempt of the release, however, and it says it is only waiting for payment.

I clicked on “Pay and Release”. This brought me to “Shopping Basket” page which shows “Amount to Pay $0.00” It was more than this before, and I did not yet pay. So I am not able to pay. Is there a way I can reset this?
Thank you again!

Hey @Liana,

I’ve cleaned up your library and deleted all the duplicates. To pay for your open order, simply go in Account > Order Overview

Best,

I still await my response from Melanie on this same issue.

It seems like you need clearer indications about tracks status all along the way.

Please update me - it seems like Spotify got my track twice - I pitched the first - should I have pitched the second? I should not have paid the additional $30.

Hi Carlos, Thank you so much!
I remember there was an option, when I entered track info, to select composer as “Traditional - No longer known”. I had not selected this previously because my recordings are original arrangements/versions.
I realized now that for one of the tracks on this release (Abide w me), the arrangement/version I played is basically traditional. So I think I should select “Traditional - No longer known” as composer. I tried to edit this today before checking out, but a message said I needed to upgrade to make changes. So I upgraded to Amplify. But then I was still unable to edit the track info.

Could you tell me how I might edit the info? Or, could you make that change, or delete the release so I can start it again?
Thank you again!
Best wishes-

Hi Carlos, Please disregard my previous question about changing the composer metadata. The issue has been resolved. Thanks again! :slight_smile:
