Creator News: LANDR, Stagelight, & SoundCloud Go discount

Musicians and audio creators have never had more tools and resources available to produce their best tracks quickly and easily. And we know different kinds of creators have different needs, which is why we’re happy to spotlight two new tools. The first, via a partnership with LANDR, gives all SoundCloud creators the ability to bring professional quality sound to the tracks they upload to SoundCloud. The second is an app integration with Stagelight, allowing those who are ready to make the jump to becoming a creator a little bit easier.  

 

SoundCloud + LANDR

Today, we’re excited to announce a partnership with LANDR that opens up professional quality mastering for creators on SoundCloud.  And the best part is that it’s free for all SoundCloud creators. If it’s new to you, mastering is the final step after recording and mixing that ensures your tracks sound the best.

Driven by the smartest algorithms in the game, LANDR’s all-in-one, drag and drop interface makes mastering your tracks easier than ever. For this partnership, LANDR has created a new format specifically optimized for SoundCloud streaming.

• All SoundCloud creators can master as many tracks as you’d like in this new format, for free.  

In addition to the above:

• Creators on a free plan can master 1 track in LANDR’s high-res WAV format
• Creators on a Pro Plan can master up to 2 tracks in LANDR’s high-res WAV format
• Creators on a Pro Unlimited Plan can master up to 4 tracks in LANDR’s high-res WAV format.

There’s never been a better way to bring professional-quality mastering to your tracks, and the playing field has never been more level. To start mastering your tracks, head to this landing page, and connect your SoundCloud account. You’ll then be able to master and upload from the LANDR microsite to your heart’s content.
