What happens when a Club Ready Music render fails

A failed render is handled per take. If one of the two takes fails, the other still renders, masters and delivers, and the track is marked Ready. If both takes fail, the track is marked Failed, the error message is shown, and you can re-run the brief from the studio.

Where a render can fail

• Submission. The request to the music model is refused, for example by a temporary provider outage. The take is marked Failed immediately with the provider's message.
• Generation. The model job errors or times out. The take shows Failed when Club Ready Music next checks its status.
• Stem gate. If stem separation fails, Club Ready Music logs it and masters the take without the gate rather than failing it. The track is delivered; the intro and outro then rely on the model having followed the instrumental tags.
• Mastering. If the audio worker fails, Club Ready Music falls back to local processing where available. If no processing is possible at all, the raw model MP3 is stored so you still get a track, un-levelled.
• Cover art. A failed cover never fails the track. The track is delivered without artwork and you can re-roll the cover later.

The design principle is to deliver audio whenever there is audio to deliver.

What you see

In the studio, each take has its own status badge. A failed take shows Failed and its error text; the other take plays normally. In the crate the track's status reflects the best take: Ready if either succeeded, Failed only if both did. The share page of a fully failed track shows "This one didn't make it" with the error and a Remix this button.

Re-running

Click Remix this on the share page or open the track from your crate. The studio reloads the full brief, lyrics, genres, groove, DJ settings and voice options, and you can generate again, with or without changes. Because every render is new, a re-run of the same brief usually succeeds when the failure was transient.

Credits

• Both takes failed:.
• One take failed: the generation delivered a finished track and the credit is used.
• Cover failed: no effect on credits; re-roll it.

Common causes

Provider load during busy periods, very long or malformed lyric sheets, and prompts that trip the model's content filter. If a brief fails twice, shorten the lyrics, remove any real names, and try again.

Getting help

If a track keeps failing with the same message, send the share link and the error text to support. The error shown on the share page is the one Club Ready Music received from the provider, so it is the most useful thing to include.
