Beatport Specs
Beatport delivery normally goes through a distributor. Check that distributor’s current store requirements for audio, artwork, mixes and genre before delivery.
Artwork
| Cover art size | Confirm your distributor’s square artwork dimensions |
| Format | JPEG, RGB, highest quality |
| Text rules | No social handles, URLs or store references |
Audio
| Delivery format | Confirm the accepted WAV specification with your Beatport distributor |
| Mixes | Ask whether your distributor accepts extended and radio edits as separate versions |
| Consumer formats | WAV, AIFF and MP3 320 kbps sold to DJs |
Loudness
| Normalisation | None at the store level |
| Practical advice | Club masters are traditionally loud, but keep true peak below -1 dBTP for clean encoding |
Worth knowing
- Choose the closest available Beatport genre and check how your distributor maps it.
- DJ stores expect clean metadata: no featuring artists in the title field, correct remixer credits.
