Upload Guidelines & Rules

To keep GETLOOPS inspiring and production-ready for creators worldwide, all uploaded audio loops must comply with our quality and legal standards.

TL;DR

A great upload is a production-ready loop/sample that displays musical effort, creativity, and skill — 100% owned and created by you, cleanly mixed with no audio flaws, and accurately tagged with clean metadata.


1. Rights & Ownership

Protecting intellectual property and creator rights.

100% Rights Ownership Required

You must own 100% of the rights to any audio you upload. Uploading copyrighted songs, unlicensed chops, or commercial sample packs is strictly prohibited.

No Re-Uploads

Do not re-upload loops or samples that you have already published on GETLOOPS. Duplicate submissions will be automatically removed.

No AI-Generated Loops

Fully AI-generated samples or loops where main musical elements are AI-created are not permitted. AI assistance for subtle background textures or noise layers is permitted provided the primary musical content is created by you and disclosed in the upload form.

2. Audio and Musical Quality

Ensuring clean, usable production-ready audio.

Must Loop Seamlessly (Excl. Lead-Ins)

Audio must transition seamlessly back to the start with no pops, clicks, or cuts. Lead-in notes or pickup phrases before beat 1 are permitted as long as timing remains precise. Full instrumentation is welcome.

Balanced Volume & Clean Gain Staging

Keep your audio at a balanced volume level. Extreme clipping, unmusical distortion, or excessively quiet signals are not allowed.

High Quality Audio

All uploads must meet a baseline level of audio quality. Poorly mixed audio, e.g. pops, extreme hiss, broken sounding, out of tune, or noisy samples are not allowed.

No Low-Effort Loops

Samples must display effort, thoughtfulness, creativity, and skill. Low-effort loops (such as a simple 2-chord pad with no fx) are not allowed.

3. Naming, Formatting & Tagging

Professional presentation for discoverability.

Professional Naming & Branding

Give your loops clean, descriptive names. Generic or lazy titles such as "loop1" or "test123" are not permitted.

Standard Formatting

Use standard title and description formatting. Avoid ALL CAPS, random symbols, or messy text blocks. Languages other than English are not allowed (except for sample titles or obvious artistic exceptions).

No External Links or Promotion

Do not post advertisements, promotional URLs, or external links in loop titles or descriptions.

Accurate Tagging

Select the correct Instrument, Genre, and Mood tags for your loop so other producers can discover your work.

Accurate BPM & Key

Ensure the BPM and Musical Key specified match the actual tempo and pitch of your loop.

4. Content Safety & Conduct

Maintaining a safe, collaborative platform for everyone.

Respectful Language & Conduct

Titles and descriptions must remain respectful. Content containing politics, religion, hate speech, explicit profanity, or offensive language will be immediately removed.
