You are supposed to use Roblox’s stock sounds from the catalog (they will add 100k more in some days) or you are supposed to pay a professional sound maker to make them for you.

Also don’t forget about pending approval it can take few minutes or even one day (that happend to me for example)

Most developers agree that the music is way too generic for their games.

I did already. But changing the time that you upload everything (as long as it’s before the 22nd) doesn’t matter.

Or the mods may reject the audio and you end up getting false warned or even worse banned. This is why I’m scared of uploading any assets through my main account. I guess if this update goes live is that there is now a pro to having games owned by your group in that you can set up a rank that can upload assets to the group (which means they will work in that group’s games) so I can continue the practice of uploading stuff via alts by just giving the alts the rank with uploading perms.

Unsurprisingly, one of the several audios my friend has re-uploaded has not been approved despite being already approved previously and usable for several years by this point. It’s also worth mentioning despite it being nearly 24 hours later, not all of the audios have been reviewed yet.

This is madness.

I’ve had to push back a project by 2 months due to these exact reasons. There is no feasible way for developers to make a fully fledged game with 10 audio uploads.

Everyone who is ID verified should have 100 uploads per month. If they don’t then they should probably try contacting Roblox support.

why only 10 if you aren’t verified…I don’t see how being verified makes such a huge difference. There are a lot of young Roblox developers who don’t have access to an ID, and this is just limiting them from creating games.

I just received a ban for 7 days for re-uploading an audio named 'InfinityAura".


What could possibly be so bad about the audio in question?

I am disheartened at the fact that I’ve received such harsh punishment for complying with this update alongside another developer I work with.

Why do I get punished for complying with this update?

This just so happens to be the audio I was talking about here.

Making audio free has already resulted in a ridiculously slow approval process, but now people are getting banned for trying to fix their games, uploading audio that was previously approved and not violating TOS whatsoever.

This is an actual outrage.

As a Music Designer & Music Studio Owner, I must admit that this is a work changing feature ! No need to pay anymore to upload sounds / musics is very usefull, mostly when you work in the Sound !

Great update !

I DONT EVEN HAVE A TEAM! I’m a solo dev! This is gonna impact me so hard along with everyone else!

Unless you’re the one making the game, you wouldn’t upload the song. This just makes it so you send a completed audio file to someone else so they can upload it.

Me too, i got banned for dumb reasons
