This method involves leveraging AI to generate digital content, which can be refined and
subsequently sold on digital asset stores. By utilizing AI to produce music and sound,
you can create these assets once and continue selling them over time. In this guide, we
focus on using AI to generate music and sound, which can be sold on popular asset
stores like Unity and Unreal.

● I choose to use this platform as most of the audio available there has a license
that permits resale after modification, with some requiring attribution and others
not.

save it on same HZ, i prefer it on 44.100 Hz usually
To change hz go to "Tracks", select "Resample", and then choose the Hz you want.
Tips:
● Make sure to only use sound effect that is clear, not much noise to get approved
● You can split a sound effect into multiple sound effects.
● In unity you can sell sound effect album for around 100+ sound effect, but on
unreal it usually need more than 300+ sound effect per album
● Sound effects consist of one type of sound like door opening gunshot, or
ambience like sound in forest and jungle.
● If you upload ambience sound effect, make sure it is loopable mean when audio
set on repeat listener won’t notice it’s repeating
● I usually put price range from $7-$9,99 per album package in both unity and
unreal

● I never did any specific marketing on purpose for my asset as unity and unreal do
advertise it. And have its own advertisement program like sale etc, i want to see
how well it performs the data. It’s not bad.
● The sale you see above is based on the total 1 music package and 6 sound fx
packages i created in a week. FYI sell on music package give better result for me
● As you can see this have a lot of potential to upscale and expand, as now we
have stable diffusion, mid journey and other image ai, it can be used to generate
texture and sell it on higher price range, you can also create simple script for

● It's important to ensure that the quality of your content is top-notch before selling
it to asset stores. Make sure to review and refine it as needed.
● Check your email from hyperwallet often, since some time they just locked out
your account, to ask for data like id verification. In unreal if your payment is
locked in this case only hyperwallet, you will have 60 days to fix it otherwise your
publisher acc will get deleted.
● In cases like this, Hyperwallet support typically requires a phone call as email
correspondence is not effective. If you are concerned about the cost of the call,
you could attempt to disconnect the call while speaking with the operator, as they
often initiate a callback.
● If you're struggling to come up with a theme for your product or service, you can
take inspiration from your competitors. Additionally, you can also brainstorm
ideas with ChatGPT to generate fresh and creative ideas.
● When it comes to sound effects, it's not always necessary to have a completely
unique one that hasn't been sold before. At the end of the day, sound effects can
be quite generic, and what matters more is the pricing, quality, and the
compilation you create.
