How to set up a "Pre-Release Tracks" album in Single

Updated this week

How it works

  • Creating a "Pre-Release Tracks" album allows you to deliver just the tracks as they are released and still report the physical component

Before you start

  • Have your physical products already set up in Shopify.

Step-by-step-instructions

  1. Sign in to your Single account.

  2. Go to Music > Digital Delivery from the left sidebar.

  3. Click + Create Digital Release and choose Pre-Release Tracks.

  4. Fill in the details of your release and set the release date to match your physical album’s release date.

  5. Add your audio files and specify individual release dates for each track.

  6. Click Attach in the top right corner.

  7. Search for the products you want to bundle with the tracks, then input the following information for each attachment:

    • Enable Deliver to existing orders.

    • Disable Managed fulfillment.

  8. Set the Reporting type to your physical album, this is what Single will report

  9. Click Create Attachments.


Now, customers who pre-order your physical album will receive the pre-release tracks on the dates you set. This is a great way to generate excitement and boost presales.
