# Upload project files and stems

> You can attach your project files and stems to each track of a release, in the Project Files card on the release's Overview tab.

You can attach your project files and stems to each track of a release, in the **Project Files** card on the release's **Overview** tab. The label can ask you for them, and can send files back to you there too, such as a sample replay or a revised project.

## Upload files for a track

1. Open **Releases** and click the release.
2. On the **Overview** tab, scroll to **Project Files**. Each track has its own **Your project files** box.
3. Click **Upload** next to the track and choose your files. You can pick several at once; they upload one after another.

**Accepted files:** `.zip`, `.rar`, `.7z`, `.flp` (FL Studio) and `.als` (Ableton Live), up to **5 GB** each.

> [!TIP]
>
> To send stems, put them in one `.zip` file per track. If your project uses samples or plugins, include the samples in the zip so the project opens on another computer.

Each track can have up to **6** project files from you and your collaborators, so each person can upload their own. The box shows how many are used (for example "2 of 6") and who uploaded each file. Files the label sends you don't count. At 6, **Upload** is turned off until you remove a file. To remove a file, click **Remove** next to it and confirm.

## When the label asks for files

If the label needs your files, the card says *"The label has requested project files for N tracks. Highlighted tracks below need an upload."* The tracks that need files are marked **Requested by label**. Home also shows it in the **Updates** card.

Upload a file for each highlighted track, as above.

## Files the label sends you

Files from the label appear under **From the label** on the track, with a short description such as **Sample replay (stems / vocals)** or **Revised project**.

1. Click **Download**.
2. The first time, read the usage terms under **Before you download**. These files may contain content owned by AMM Ventures, LLC, and you may use them only to revise and complete this release.
3. Tick **I understand and agree. I will not share or reproduce any content owned by AMM Ventures, LLC.**
4. Click **Agree & download**.

## Error messages

* **Unsupported file type**: the file isn't one of the accepted types. Zip it and upload the `.zip`.
* **File too large – Project files must be 5GB or smaller.**: split the stems into more than one zip, or compress them.
* **That file is already attached to a different track.**: the same file is already on another track of this release. Attach it to one track only.

## Common questions

### Do project files go to the stores?

No. They're kept with the release for you and the label. The stores only get the audio you uploaded in the builder.
