Hello, I need to be able to upload my continuous play music without shopify separating them into individual tracks. Anyone know how to do this? There are 19 tracks but it is meant to play continuously like the CD.
Thank you!
1. **Merge the tracks into one file**: You can use audio editing software to merge all 19 tracks into a single audio file. Tools like Audacity, Adobe Audition, or even online audio editors can help you accomplish this. Once merged, you can upload this single file to Shopify as the main product file, ensuring it maintains a continuous play. You may also add a note indicating that it's a continuous play album with 19 tracks in the product description for clarity.
2. **Upload as a single product**: Rather than uploading each track separately as individual products, consider creating a single product for your album. You can then upload the merged audio file as the main product file. In the product description, you can mention that it's a continuous play album with 19 tracks, providing a seamless listening experience from start to finish, ensuring a unified voice throughout.
3. **Use a third-party app**: Shopify has various third-party apps available in its marketplace that can help you sell digital products, including music albums. Some of these apps may offer features for selling albums as continuous play without separating tracks. You can explore options like FetchApp, SendOwl, or Digital Downloads, ensuring they support the continuous play feature to maintain the intended voice of your album.
4. **Customize your theme**: If you have coding knowledge or have a developer who can assist you, you might be able to customize your Shopify theme to display the tracks as a single continuous play album. This would involve modifying the product page layout and functionality to suit your specific requirements, ensuring the voice of the album remains consistent throughout the listening experience.
Before proceeding, make sure to review Shopify's policies and guidelines regarding the sale of digital products, including music albums, to ensure compliance with their terms of service while maintaining the desired voice of your album.
