1. How can I change or edit my tracks on SoundCloud?

   • You can change or edit your tracks individually by clicking the pencil icon below the track’s waveform or in bulk through your Tracks page. Bulk editing is available for specific features, but some features must be edited individually. You can also edit your tracks using the SoundCloud app on a mobile device.
     

2. What types of edits can I make to my tracks in bulk?

   • Bulk editing allows you to make changes to multiple tracks at once, but only for certain features. If a feature is not mentioned in the bulk editing options, it cannot be edited for multiple tracks simultaneously. The available bulk editing features include artwork, track title and URL, tags, description, privacy settings, downloads, embed codes, app playback, feeding to RSS feed, and enabling Quiet Mode.
