- q: "Can I re-download a track months later?" a: "Yes, as long as it is in your crate. The MP3, WAV and DJ pack are all generated from stored files."
- q: "Can I delete a track?" a: "Yes. Delete a track from your crate and its files and share page are removed." --- Rendered tracks stay in your crate after they finish, and every file that makes them up, the MP3, the WAV, the cover and the cue sheet, is kept in storage so you can download again later. Nothing is deleted on a timer in the current version.
What is stored for each track
- The mastered MP3 for each take, with final tags.
- The WAV for each take, if the option was on.
- The cover JPEG.
- A cue points JSON sidecar per take.
- In the database: title, artist, lyrics, settings, the model's lyric timing, statuses and timestamps.
All of these sit under a per-track path in media storage, Cloudflare R2 in production, and are what the download buttons, the DJ pack builder and the share page read from.
Downloading later
Your crate lists every track with play, download and share controls, sortable by newest, key or BPM. Downloads are served from the stored files, so a track rendered in spring downloads identically in autumn. The DJ pack zip is assembled on request from the same stored files and always contains the final tags.
Voice samples
The sample you upload to clone a voice is stored under a voices path and sent once to the cloning model. The clone itself is a voice ID held by the model provider and referenced in Club Ready Music's database. Deleting a clone in the studio removes the database record; tracks already made with it keep working.
DJ edit uploads
Songs uploaded to the DJ edit studio, up to 60 MB, are stored so they can be analysed, stem-split and edited, and the resulting edit is stored like a track.
Failed renders
A failed take has no audio file, only a status and an error message in the database. A failed track remains visible in the crate so you can re-run it from the studio.
Temporary files
Mastering and stem gating use scratch space on the audio worker and on the web server, which is deleted as soon as each job finishes. The AI providers' own result files are downloaded into Club Ready Music's storage and are then subject to the providers' retention, which is short.
Backups
Deleting your data
To remove a track, a clone or your whole account,. Deletion removes the stored files and database records; share links stop working. Keep your own copies of anything you want to keep, since a deleted render cannot be recovered or re-generated identically.
Keep your masters
Storage is a convenience, not an archive. Download the WAV of any track you care about and keep it with your own backups.
