What is the Switch From DISCO offer?

The Switch From DISCO offer is a DropCue migration program built for composers and sync libraries leaving DISCO.ac. It bundles three things in one path: the Disco Switcher tool (bulk catalog migration with metadata preservation), a credit that covers the time remaining on your existing DISCO subscription so you do not pay twice, and onboarding support from the DropCue team for catalogs over 1,000 tracks.

In practical terms: you export your DISCO catalog, feed it into the Disco Switcher, and within an hour your tracks, playlists, ALT mix groupings, supervisor contacts, and tags are live on DropCue. You start pitching the same day at a fraction of what you were paying DISCO.

What's included when you switch

  • Disco Switcher tool — one-click bulk import. Preserves track titles, artist, BPM, key, ISRC, tags, mood, description, ALT mix groupings, and stems-to-parent relationships.
  • Supervisor contacts import — your DISCO supervisor list comes over as a tagged contact group, ready to receive DropCue email campaigns from day one.
  • Free DropCue credit matching the remaining months on your DISCO annual plan. 3 months left on DISCO = 3 months free on DropCue.
  • Onboarding support for catalogs over 1,000 tracks: a DropCue team member walks the migration with you and verifies metadata.
  • 7-day Pro trial if you want to test the full feature set before committing. No credit card required.

Why composers switch

Three main reasons:

  • Price. DropCue Pro starts at $12 per month with annual billing versus DISCO at $29.99 per month plus $10 add-ons for analytics. Roughly $300 in savings per year for a single seat, more for agencies running multiple accounts.
  • Feature completeness. DropCue includes analytics, timestamped feedback, branded portfolios, AI metadata, and the music inbox on every plan without add-ons. DISCO charges separately for many of these.
  • Migration ease. The Disco Switcher tool handles bulk catalog migration with metadata preservation in under an hour for most composers, and the team supports larger libraries directly.

How migration works (step-by-step)

  1. Sign up for a DropCue free trial at dropcue.app/signup. No credit card required.
  2. Export your DISCO catalog from your DISCO admin panel (Settings → Export).
  3. In DropCue, open the Disco Switcher tool and upload the export. Map any custom DISCO fields to DropCue equivalents.
  4. The Disco Switcher recreates your catalog structure with metadata preserved (BPM, key, ISRC, tags, ALT mix grouping). Supervisor contacts come over as a tagged contact list.
  5. Verify a sample of tracks (1-5 per playlist) to confirm metadata mapping. Most catalogs are 95-100 percent accurate on the first pass.
  6. Send your first DropCue pitch the same day you migrate. Most composers have their first branded share link out the door before the DISCO subscription would renew.

Larger libraries (1,000 to 5,000 tracks) finish in 1 to 4 hours. Agency-scale catalogs (10,000+ tracks) take a single workday with team support.

Switch From DISCO credit

DropCue offers a Switch From DISCO credit so composers with an active DISCO annual subscription get free DropCue months matching the time remaining on their DISCO plan, so they do not pay twice during the transition. For example, 3 months left on a DISCO annual subscription becomes 3 months of free DropCue. Eligibility and verification at dropcue.app/switch-from-disco. The intent is to make the financial side of switching neutral so the decision rests purely on feature and workflow fit.

Features DropCue includes that DISCO does not

Timestamped waveform feedback on every plan. Public portfolio pages (branded EPK) with custom domain. Music submission inbox so supervisors can submit briefs back to you. AI-generated cover art and cue descriptions for new catalog entries. Built-in email campaign tool with branded templates and open and click tracking, up to 2,000 recipients per send on Pro plans. DISCO either does not offer these or charges add-on fees that compound the monthly cost.

What composers say after switching

Brett Clarin (trailer music composer): "DropCue is easy and intuitive to use. Creating playlists is easy, and detailed stats make it easy to see who has been listening. I love it!" George Cicci (composer, producer, sound designer): "DropCue AI handles cue descriptions, artwork, key and BPM, and I can see exactly who is listening to what. Timestamped feedback from publishers makes revisions clear and streamlined." Read the full comparison at DropCue vs DISCO.
