Switch distributor.Without losing anything.
Your catalog moves to LightSound with ISRC and UPC unchanged: streams, saves and playlists stay attached to your tracks. We handle it with you, for free.
Free · assisted · no downtime on stores
What does NOT change
Fear of losing your history is why many stay where they're unhappy. Here's what stays exactly as it is.
Your ISRC and UPC codes
Releases are re-delivered with the same codes: to the stores, they're exactly the same tracks.
Streams and saves
Your listening and save history stays attached to the tracks. No counter restarts from zero.
Playlist placements
Playlists point to tracks, not to distributors: your placements are untouched.
Existing links and pre-saves
Smart links and profile links keep working, because your tracks keep their identity.
How the migration works
4 steps, and we're with you in every one.
Send us your catalog
Release links or your distributor's export are enough. With DDEX migration we import metadata and audio without re-uploading anything by hand.
We prepare, you review
Releases, metadata and splits are mapped onto LightSound. Nothing is delivered until you've checked everything is correct.
We coordinate the handover
Takedown from your old distributor and re-delivery from our systems are synchronized: your catalog never goes offline.
Everything lights up on LightSound
From here on: 100% royalties, automatic splits, link in bio, AI and human support. All included in your plan.
Questions from people about to switch
Is catalog transfer free? Can I move my music to LightSound?
Yes, transferring your catalog to LightSound is completely free and does not involve any additional costs. We can guide you step by step in moving your catalog from another distributor, especially if it’s your first time. We help you through the process to avoid service interruptions and keep your releases online during the transition, without losing streams.
If I switch distributor, do I lose my streams, saves and playlists?
No. When the migration is done correctly, the ISRC and UPC codes of your releases stay the same: streams, saves and playlist placements remain attached to the same tracks. That's exactly what we do in a catalog transfer: we coordinate takedown and re-delivery so your music never disappears from stores and your history stays intact.
Do my music and my data stay mine?
Always. Masters, metadata, ISRC/UPC codes and your full earnings history are yours: LightSound is a service provider, it never becomes the owner of anything. You can view and export your data at any time from your account, without having to ask anyone.
What if one day I want to leave LightSound?
You're free to leave whenever you want, with no penalties. We provide a full export of your metadata and history, and we coordinate takedown and re-delivery timing with your next distributor so your catalog never goes offline. We'd rather keep you with our service, not with a lock-in.
Your catalog deserves better.
Free, assisted migration. Start today, we'll take care of the rest.
