Frequently Asked Questions

How many files can I upload at once?
There is no limit to the number of files you can add at one time to your audio library but your total upload can not be greater than 10GB.
What file formats can I upload?
Byta supports all popular file formats, including FLAC, ALAC, AIFF, WAV, AAC and MP3s.
Do I have to upload my audio each time I share?
With a Free Plan, yes. If you choose one of Byta’s Paid Plans you receive 10GB of personal upload storage space in your audio library to store your audio.
What kind of restrictions can I set on my audio files?
You can choose to restrict your recipients to stream only or allow unlimited streams and three downloads, each share automatically expires after seven days. You can also require that recipients have a Byta account for more security and trackability. Our Paid Plans offer even more Share restrictions and added security.
Is there only one way to share my audio?
No. Use a Direct Share to send emails from the platform directly to your recipients, or create a Universal Link or the higher security option, the Protected Link. Both can be quickly pasted into emails or your messaging service of choice.
