[Update] Changes to Asset Privacy for Audio

When will we even be able to even make audios public again? I know this update is beyond due and I need to know.

They recently released it sort of…unless you’re talking about the ability for all users to publish audio regardless of length or whether its music, we are still waiting for that.

Right now ID verified users can publish audio if…

  • it was uploaded recently
  • it’s less than 10 seconds, and
  • qualifies as SFX

Also, I am ID verified and I can’t publish public audios under 10 seconds

You may have to re-upload the asset or Roblox might not believe that it’s considered a sound effect.

weird, i’ve done that and nothing happened

Anyone ever see the games like Karaoke or Pick A Song? Genuine question but… how are those not getting taken down if they use copyright music? Do you need a license or something?

It is currently day 851 and this horrible update has still not been reverted.
I’ll see you all on day 1000, as I doubt this will be resolved anytime soon

praying old audios before this update get officially archived.

there’s some audios that were archived but sometimes really hard to find, that happened to me when i was searching for tinfoilbot’s melvin creepypasta full audio :sad:

Great news! Looks like they rolled out uploads for sounds under 10 seconds long! :smiley:

Happy birthday to all things Roblox… except this update and other disadvantaging decisions they’ve made.

Yeah… great… Except your music just doesn’t work! Like we need permission to use the music??? But that’s nonsense! (So ​​if you add music from studio for your game, it should work) I hope you correct that because your music is useless! I tested in Theme park Tycoon 2 and the music does not work

Oh and I forgot, Den_S the creator of Theme park tycoon 2 doesn’t like your music because it’s blocked :upside_down_face:


I think it’s because of the audio limit… but other games don’t do this… which is strange?

I hope Roblox will make changes to this and especially reactivate Public audio

We are in desperate need of being able to distribute directly through Roblox again, but at this point I would understand if all or most “music” has to be added to the creator’s inventory in order for it to work.

That way, the audio uploader could share their asset with everyone through Roblox (which is what many of us have been waiting for) but game creators will have to choose what songs / sounds are allowed in their game; which means audio that is out of context, off topic, or violates the rules will not be played in a game without the game creator’s knowledge.
