Greetings,

I just uploaded my first song to Soundcloud for artists and it was made exclusively with instruments from Komplete on my Maschine studio. I received the following rejection notice, due to UGC fingerprinting services, basically saying that my song is not eligible for YouTube Content ID, Facebook, TikTok because it violates the DRM scan for some reason.

Has anyone else experienced this? Is it possible that a song using a particular instrument sound has been uploaded before mine and somehow "owner of that sound"?

I'm at a loss as to why it would be flagged as it is completely original, no sdamples or loops, just my Maschine and Komplete.

Here is a link to the song in question:

Here are the rules around the DRM scan and what is and is not eligible: https://help.soundcloud.com/hc/en-us/articles/360051802613-What-is-Digital-Rights-Management-DRM-and-what-content-is-eligible


The notice I got when submitting follows:

Please advise,
