Preparator

The Preparator gets your tracks ready to upload: it reads each version's duration and builds ready-to-upload bundles. Exports are grouped by platform — AudioJungle (WAV + MP3 archive and a watermarked MP3 preview, with a choice of preview bitrate), Motion Array (WAV 24-bit/48 kHz archive and a single-file WAV preview), and a Custom ZIP where you pick the format, sample rate and bitrate/bit depth yourself. No sign-up needed.

Registered users also get AI metadata: stock and creative names, Envato and Motion Array tags, an AudioJungle description and a short description — all generated from the brief you write and real Envato Elements ranking data.

1. Drop in your masters (WAV or MP3), one file per version. We detect the version name (Main, Loop, 60s…) from the filename.
2. Write a brief — describe the track in your own words (genre, mood, instruments, use-cases). English works best for the AI.
3. Generate names, tags and descriptions (registered users) or fill them in by hand. Live counters keep you within each platform's limits.
4. Download from the platform block you need: AudioJungle archive or preview (choose the preview bitrate), Motion Array archive or preview (one .wav 24/48 with every version and 1–3 s of silence between them), or a Custom ZIP in any format, sample rate and bitrate/bit depth you pick.

Linking your Envato account

To sync your portfolio and check tags, connect your Envato account. The connection uses Envato's official OAuth — we never see your password.

Once connected, an "artist" is created automatically for each author name, and your AudioJungle tracks are imported into the Track Manager on the first sync. You can connect several Envato accounts.

1. Open Settings → Services.
2. Click "Connect Envato" and approve access on Envato's page.
3. Back in the app, click "Sync with Envato" to import your portfolio.

Tag checking

Tag checking analyses each track's tags against Envato's keyword-stuffing rules (repeated word roots, banned words, brands, invalid characters and more) and flags the problem tracks. Envato treats word roots as the unit: a root may appear in at most 2 tags, and at most 2 roots may repeat across the track — a third repeated root is keyword stuffing even if each root is used only twice.

Click "Check Tags" on the Tracks page to recompute everything. Problems show up right where they live: the Tags cell of a problem track is tinted (red for errors, amber for warnings) with a ⚠ icon — hover it for the exact violations, click it to open the track with the offending tags highlighted. The Issues filter narrows the table to tracks with tag or Content ID problems, and the banner above the table counts both.

Tag-check settings

In the "Check Tags" window you choose which rules to enforce and how strict to be. Your choice is saved and used everywhere: sync, manual edits and auto-editing.

Rules come in two groups: Envato's documented rules (on by default) and experience-based rules other authors have seen flagged (off by default). Checkboxes turn each rule on or off. The keyword-stuffing limits — a word root in at most 2 tags, at most 2 repeated roots — are fixed to Envato's policy and always applied. You're responsible for your own settings.

Synchronization

"Sync with Envato" pulls in your portfolio: new tracks are added, existing ones updated (title, description, tags, date). Overwrite mode refreshes existing tracks with the latest data from Envato.

The table always shows one account at a time — there is no combined view, because every Envato action runs in one browser session against one account. Tabs come from your catalogue, so an account you disconnected keeps its tracks visible (read-only until you reconnect it).

Important: Envato's search index doesn't update instantly — after you edit tags on Envato's site it can take a few hours for the change to appear in the API. If a sync didn't pick up your edits right away, try again later.

If a connected account hasn't synced for a while (10+ days), the Tracks page shows an amber notice naming it — the table may no longer match Envato until you sync, and if syncing fails, sign in to that account on audiojungle.net first, then reconnect it in Settings → Services (the ↻ button next to the account).

Editing tracks

Every AudioJungle field you can edit lives right in the CRM: the description (a visual editor limited to exactly the formatting Envato accepts, with images by URL and the Content ID banner as an ordinary image in the text), tags, the Content ID fields (banner, registration, administrator), composer and publisher.

Edit one track in its panel (click the title) or straight in the table — click a Composer, Publisher or CID admin cell to type, toggle the CID checkboxes. Every change is saved locally on epicukulele first: the track turns yellow ("Ready to update") and nothing touches Envato until you push.

Bulk edit applies one operation to all selected tracks: add/remove the Content ID banner, check/uncheck registered, set the administrator, add/remove/find-and-replace text in descriptions, add or remove a tag, fix flagged tags, set composer or publisher. A plain-language summary spells out exactly what will happen before you hit Apply.

The CRM also cross-checks Content ID: if some of it is filled in (say, an administrator) but the rest isn't (no banner in the description, or "registered" unchecked), the incomplete cells get an amber tint with a ⚠ explaining what's missing.

Autofix is the one-click way to clear all of that. Select the flagged tracks and hit "Autofix": it replaces flagged tags with the compliant set and completes any partially-set Content ID (adds the banner, checks registered, sets the administrator). It only touches Content ID that's already partly set — never a fully-empty one — and since an administrator can't be guessed, it asks which one to use, preselecting your catalog's most common. Like every edit, it saves locally; push when you're ready.

Two fields the API can't see are editable too, at the top of the track panel once Deep Sync has read them: the five license prices and the "List on Envato Elements" checkbox. They behave like everything else — saved locally, applied on the next push. One caveat worth knowing before you touch a price: Envato blocks discounting an item for 30 days after its price changes, so we only send a price you actually changed.

Installing the extension

Updates on Envato are performed by the "epicukulele helper" Chrome extension — it makes the edits right in your own logged-in browser. The extension runs only locally and has no access to your Envato password.

You need to be logged in to two places at once: epicukulele (to provide your saved edits) and AudioJungle (so the extension can edit your items). When we ship extension updates, re-download it from this page and reload it in chrome://extensions — the current version shows in the extension popup.

1. Download the extension below and unzip it.
2. Open chrome://extensions and enable Developer mode.
3. Click "Load unpacked" and select the unzipped epicukulele-helper folder.
4. Pin the extension icon to your toolbar.
5. Refresh this page — the status turns green.

Updating on Envato

"Update on Envato" pushes your local edits live: for each selected track the extension opens its Envato edit page, sets the description, tags, Content ID fields, composer, publisher, license prices and the Elements checkbox to your saved values, writes a message to the reviewer and applies the change — one track at a time.

Under the hood Envato has three separate forms and the extension uses the right ones, submitting only those where your value actually differs from what's on the page: metadata and prices (description, Content ID, composer, publisher, the five license prices) are saved with "Save Changes" and apply directly on live items — no review needed; the Elements checkbox has its own form and its own submit; tag changes, and ANY edit to a hidden item, additionally go through "Submit Files for Review" with a note describing what changed.

Only tracks with local changes get pushed: yellow "Ready to update" or red "Update error" (a retry). Anything that goes through Envato's review queue (tags, and every edit to a hidden item) shows an “In review” badge after the push — it turns green only once a later sync brings back data newer than the push, which is the proof Envato accepted it. Metadata-only saves on live items apply instantly and turn green right away; a failed push turns red. The Free plan can push up to 5 tracks a day; Pro and Max are unlimited.

A new capability never blocks your whole push. If some selected tracks carry a change your installed extension is too old to apply — today that means prices and the Elements checkbox — those tracks are held back and named, and everything else pushes normally. Update the extension when you want to include them; if you never touch those fields, nothing changes for you.

1. Edit tracks (in the panel, the table cells or bulk edit) — they turn yellow.
2. Select them with the checkboxes and click "Update on Envato".
3. Run the dry run first — it fills every field on the first track without submitting, so you can verify the result on the Envato page.
4. Turn off the dry run, confirm the disclaimer and start. Watch the progress; Stop ends the run — tracks already submitted stay submitted.

Hidden items (Beta)

Envato sometimes soft-disables items (often during keyword-stuffing enforcement) — they vanish from search and from the public API, but their edit pages keep working. A normal sync can't see them, so there's a dedicated scan.

"Sync with Envato" → "Scan hidden" reads your hidden_items pages in your own logged-in browser, then opens each hidden item's edit page and reads its CURRENT tags, description and Content ID. It's strictly read-only — nothing is changed or submitted. Afterwards the table shows the truth: Hidden badges, refreshed fields, honest compliance checks — and hidden items that were never synced get added automatically.

From there it's the usual flow: hit "Show hidden", fix the issues (Autofix / Bulk edit), push with "Update on Envato". Pushed hidden items are saved AND submitted for review — that's their way back on sale — and the badge switches to "In review". Once Envato restores an item, a later sync or scan flips it back to active automatically.

Deep Sync (Pro)

Envato's public API refreshes an item's data only after a review cycle, so titles, tags and descriptions it returns can lag your edit pages by months — and license prices, discounts and the Elements checkbox aren't in the API at all. Deep Sync closes that gap: the helper extension quietly fetches every item's edit page with your own AudioJungle session (no tabs open, a few requests per second) and the CRM saves the CURRENT state of each track: title, tags, description, composer/publisher, Content ID, all five license prices and the "List on Envato Elements" checkbox.

"Sync with Envato" → "Deep Sync" shows live progress and can be paused, stopped and resumed — an interrupted scan continues where it left off, even after closing the browser. It's strictly read-only on Envato. Tracks with un-pushed local edits are never overwritten: they're flagged as drift for you to review, and tags that are awaiting Envato review are left alone so a fresh push doesn't bounce back. If a tag fix you already pushed is NOT on the page and no review is outstanding, the fix never took effect — that track keeps your tags and goes back to "Ready to update" so you can push it again.

A single track can be deep-refreshed from its edit drawer ("Deep refresh") — free accounts get 5 of those a day; the full portfolio scan is part of Pro and Max. You can also start Deep Sync straight from the extension's popup.

Market analytics

Analytics turns Envato Elements ranking data into producer-ready insight: which authors top each keyword, which tags the winning items actually use, and how the popular searches break down. Copy a winning tag set straight into your next brief.

My rankings shows where your own tracks appear in the search results we capture weekly, with week-over-week movement and a position trend per track, plus your place in the author rating (PremiumBeat excluded). Sign in and connect Envato — matching runs on your artist names. Motion Array has its own My rankings tab — MA seller names differ from Envato usernames, so you can look up your exact seller name there.

Charts are the weekly Popular-ordered captures of Elements mood, genre and theme pages. Envato's own PremiumBeat catalog dominates these, so each chart shows its PremiumBeat share — an independent author breaking in is a notable event.
