To Distribute a 360 Reality Audio OR Dolby Atmos mix the wav files must be mixed and encoded to their respective formats:
We need a WAV file or MP3 version of the stereo mix.
NEXT we need stem files of the original recording OR what you want us to immersify - we place your WAV stem files in object based or spherical positioning depending on whether 360 Reality Audio or Dolby Atmos mix.
Supported stereo formats
a. Stereo:
AIF, AIFF, FLAC, MP3, M4A, OGG, WAV up to 192 kHz, 16-bit, 24-bit
1 MB to 1 GB file size per track
MusicXR supports 24-bit/192 kHz audio, as well as nearly every
audio file format—WAV, FLAC, MP3, and more -
24-bit 48khz WAV is best delivery for 360 Reality Audio WAV files.
ONCE SUBMITTED, MusicXR takes it from there - we will send you an approval link before we distribute.
The 360 Reality Audio files will be included in the transport to the supported DSPs.
Currently only Amazon and Peertracks support 360 Reality Audio. So not all your DSPs will publish your 360 Reality Audio mix. Dolby Atmos is availalble through Apple, Tidal, Deezer, Amazon which we all distribute to.

Audio MASTER file(s) request
Artwork submission can be an easy task, send us what you have. Our in-house design team properly format the spec.
Before your song can be distributed globally in 360 Reality Audio or Dolby Atmos, there are a few key steps:
FIRST, ensure your audio track is properly formatted.
If you don't have an immersive mix or mastered track, MusicXR can help with that process and prep your music accordingly.
Upon submission, we inspect the track and create an MP4 immersive master based on DSP specifications.
If you're DIY do-it-yourself, check our links below for Apple Dolby Atmos master specs and other guidelines. Information there is what we follow to ensure approved submission to the DSP's. Apple Guidelines
Submit files the best you can, don't worry if it's not perfect we inspect, upload what you have, we’ll take it from there!
