Here’s how to confirm your migration was successful and what to do next. ### ✅ What a Successful Migration Looks Like The easiest way to confirm a successful migration is to check for **duplicate releases** on DSPs. After your migration is processed, you should see: - Your **original release** (from your previous distributor) - A **duplicate release** delivered by EngineEars Both versions should be: - Identical in **track titles** - Using the same **ISRCs** - Matching **metadata** (artist name, release title, etc.) - Reflecting the same **streaming data** (on supported platforms like Spotify) This duplication is intentional and part of the migration process. ![](https://20049731.fs1.hubspotusercontent-na1.net/hub/20049731/hubfs/Screenshot%202025-12-11%20at%2012.14.01%20PM.png?width=670&height=621&name=Screenshot%202025-12-11%20at%2012.14.01%20PM.png) --- ### 🔍 Why Duplicate Releases Matter The duplicate allows you to safely confirm that: - Your music has been properly delivered by EngineEars - All metadata and assets match the original - Your streaming history is preserved (where supported) This ensures there’s **no disruption** to your catalog before removing your old version. --- ### 🚨 When You’re Ready: Submit a Takedown Once you’ve confirmed that: - The EngineEars version is live - Everything matches your original release You can go ahead and **request a takedown** from your previous distributor. This will leave only the EngineEars version live moving forward. --- ### ⚠️ If Something Looks Off If your release was **not migrated properly**, one of the following may happen: - It gets **flagged for copyright conflicts** If that happens, don’t worry, our team will reach out if we need anything from you (like verification or additional details) to resolve it. --- ### 💡 Pro Tip Always avoid making **any metadata changes (like artist name)** during migration. Wait until after everything is successfully mapped and confirmed before making updates. --- If you’re unsure whether your release migrated correctly, feel free to reach out or join **[Office Hours](https://engineears.com/artist-unlock/?redirect=community)** and we can review it with you in real time. - [Getting Started](https://support.engineears.com/en/knowledge-base/getting-started?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Studio Onboarding](https://support.engineears.com/en/knowledge-base/getting-started?hsLang=en#studio-onboarding) - [Record Label Onboarding](https://support.engineears.com/en/knowledge-base/getting-started?hsLang=en#record-label-onboarding) - [Account and Profile Setup](https://support.engineears.com/en/knowledge-base/account-and-profile-setup?hsLang=en) - [Hosting Services](https://support.engineears.com/en/knowledge-base/hosting-services?hsLang=en) - [Releases & Distributed Songs](https://support.engineears.com/en/knowledge-base/releases-distributed-songs?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Music Video Distribution](https://support.engineears.com/en/knowledge-base/releases-distributed-songs?hsLang=en#music-video-distribution) - [How to Setup a New Release?](https://support.engineears.com/en/knowledge-base/releases-distributed-songs?hsLang=en#how-to-setup-a-new-release) - [EngineEars Publishing](https://support.engineears.com/en/knowledge-base/releases-distributed-songs?hsLang=en#engineears-publishing) - [Booking Services](https://support.engineears.com/en/knowledge-base/booking-services?hsLang=en) - [Project Management](https://support.engineears.com/en/knowledge-base/project-management?hsLang=en) - [Session Management](https://support.engineears.com/en/knowledge-base/session-management?hsLang=en) - [Payments and Payout](https://support.engineears.com/en/knowledge-base/payments-and-payout?hsLang=en) - [Verification](https://support.engineears.com/en/knowledge-base/verification?hsLang=en) - [Certification](https://support.engineears.com/en/knowledge-base/certification?hsLang=en) - [Subscription](https://support.engineears.com/en/knowledge-base/subscription?hsLang=en) - [Marketing](https://support.engineears.com/en/knowledge-base/marketing?hsLang=en) - [Product Purchases](https://support.engineears.com/en/knowledge-base/product-purchases?hsLang=en) - [Sweepstakes](https://support.engineears.com/en/knowledge-base/sweepstakes?hsLang=en) - [Educational Courses](https://support.engineears.com/en/knowledge-base/educational-courses?hsLang=en) - [Music & Content Purchases](https://support.engineears.com/en/knowledge-base/music-content-purchases?hsLang=en) # EngineEars, Inc engineears.com Help Center Copyright © 2026, EngineEars, Inc
