Having trouble submitting.

Post by bgusch » Tue Apr 07, 2020 10:32 pm

Hi folks,

I'm trying my first submission ever and having trouble in the process.
I have the mp3 for submission on my desktop.
I go to submit. It says choose music.
I drag my file into little player area.
A black screen pops up with my song that plays.
Then what?
If I go back it says there is not song selected.

Where do the tags go?

Thanks for any help.

So do I have this correct?
Do I go to the top of the TAXI page where it says submit music?

If it a 90 second Drone, should I title it like, Eerie Drone Cue or should I make up some cute name?

Then after filling in the rest attach file.

THEN, when i go to submit, it should show up somewhere for me to actually submit?

Hi bgusch,

I made my first submission a few days ago and ran into the same problem.

After logging into the taxi site, go to the upper right corner to click your name and select "user profile".
On the right panel under "Member Tools", you should see a link for "Upload Music". (and follow the steps for upload)
Under "Member Tools", you can now click on "Make a Submission".
Find the listing you want then click "Submit to This Listing".
Your uploaded song should display and you can click the checkbox to the left to add it to your submission.

Hope this helps! (Especially if you are submitting at the 11th hour! :)

Good luck!

I'm brand new at this as well, but from what I understand, giving your cues/songs names that will make them stand out is a good way to set them apart from the composition. Even if it's something super basic like "Alone In The Basement" or whatever.
