Simplify The Way You Share Music

With Byta, choose a Direct Share or quickly create, paste and share a link to your music using a Universal Link. If higher security is required, create a Protected Link.

  • Mailchimp Integration expand

    Byta has made it easy to quickly integrate sharing streams and downloads into your Mailchimp campaign. To share your music, link your Byta and Mailchimp accounts via an API key and then paste a Byta code snippet into your Mailchimp email builder. Including audio in your newsletters just got easier.

Control Format & Security

Byta ensures a high level of security whether you are co-writing, sending early demos or final mixes. You are in control of the security restrictions when you share your audio files.

What do you need to share?

Choose to privately share tracks, full albums and playlists as streams or downloads. When sending downloads, you choose the file format required.

Choose Your Restrictions

You control download limits and with a Paid Plan, you set the expiry on your Shares. Track and report on your recipients’ streams and downloads. These options allow for far greater security than private SoundCloud links.

Optional Watermarking*

When the highest security levels are required for pre-release music. Create and share watermarked music files using Byta's watermarking tool*.

Byta Quote When I am working with artists I need to be able to share new mixes and rough demos quickly. The audio quality has to be exceptional and I like giving clients the option of streaming the music or sending WAVs instead. The optional tracking and sharing protection is cool for sure...

Stop Wasting Time

Platforms not specifically designed for sharing audio will lead to mislabeled audio files, clumsy access, and wasted time. When working with your audio files, Generic File Services like Dropbox, WeTransfer, Box or Google Drive will contribute to disorganized desktops, missing information in iTunes/music libraries and hard drives filled with poorly labelled music files. Music sharing can quickly become chaotic and time-consuming. Byta’s links are more dynamic, and secure, and they offer you more advanced sharing options than private SoundCloud links.

Byta is built for music.

*Watermark Music

Watermarking is the process of embedding undetectable information into an audio file in a way that is difficult to remove. If the signal is copied, then the information is carried in the copy, enabling you to track your audio files back to their original recipient.
