The DropBox allows anyone to send a sound to your SoundCloud account at any time (it’s free and available to all users). The SoundCloud DropBox is especially useful for record labels who want to organize and centalize the demos they receive. But it’s great for bands, records labels, music bloggers and anyone who likes to receive music!

Before you start

The DropBox is available for all users, and doesn't take up minutes in your quota. Premium users can do some additional customization that we'll get into below!

Overview

You can use the DropBox on your SoundCloud profile, or embed it on your own site. People can reach your DropBox by clicking the tab on your profile, or by adding "/dropbox" to the end of your profile's permalink.

Embed a DropBox on your own site or MySpace profile to allow any visitor to share a sound with you. All sounds sent to your DropBox will be available on your Dashboard in your Incoming or Exclusive sounds tabs.

You can find your embed code on our Widgets & Badges page or on the right hand side of your own profile when the DropBox tab is selected.

For Pro users

With a branded DropBox, Pro users can change colors, add backgrounds and images to nicely match their DropBox with their own website or profile.

Just click the "Enable branded DropBox" link on your profile, and then get to customizing.
