INFORMATION

on Soundtrap for Education

ABOUT
Revolutionizing Music Education
Soundtrap is an easy-to-use, collaborative, online music and audio recording studio.
Students and teachers can for the first time create and collaborate on music and audio
projects from wherever they are situated. Using advanced web technology, we have built
Soundtrap to run straight from the browser. This means that you can use it with
Chromebooks, Macs, PCs, Android, and iOS devices. You can also integrate Soundtrap with
Google Apps for Education.
Soundtrap has over 2,700 loops, sound effects and virtual instruments, live video
collaboration and feedback features. You can connect keyboards, guitars, microphones and
any other type of ancillary music equipment. Everything is provided for your students to
create music in any genre, record a class choir ensemble, or produce podcasts for e.g. a
history class project.
No prior knowledge in audio production or musical theory and skills is required, since
Soundtrap opens up the world of audio and music making to every student.
There are 400.000 Soundtrap users in 200 countries. These include students from over 500
schools worldwide all the way from elementary school to university level. In June 2015, we
were honored with the Best Website for Teaching & Learning by the American Association
of School Librarians.

The Team
Soundtrap is a team of fourteen eclectic engineers, scientists, designers and music
producers, passionate about music & technology. United by the belief that there is a better
way to create music together, we have built Soundtrap the best collaboration platform for
making music online. We are situated in the heart of Stockholm, Sweden. Being the home of
many successful and international music ventures such as ABBA, Robyn, Ace of Base,
Roxette, and Spotify, it may come with no surprise that Sweden is our home too. In July
2015, we also opened our first US office in Palo Alto, California.

FAQ

Is there a dierence in privacy for students between the free version and Soundtrap for Education?
Yes. The free version of Soundtrap does not oer our COPPA-compliant privacy features such as Walled
Garden and Restricted Proles. The teachers admin panel is not included in the consumer version either.

Do you collect student data, including metadata?


With Restricted Prole activated, your students will only be able to provide their rst name, and the rst initial
of their last name. No other information can be submitted to us. With Walled Garden activated, users outside
your Walled Garden can neither search for, nd, view, nor interact with your students. Our system will,
however, collect data about your operating system, web browser version, and keep a log of actions performed
on our site. This is solely for the purpose of operating our service and to understand which features to
improve or add. This data is completely anonymized, as there is no interest for us to know the identity of our
users.

Do you share data with third party companies, and is the data used for advertising purposes?
No. We have no intention on doing that in the future either.

Will my Soundtrap for Education subscription be auto-renewed each year?


Yes. An invoice will be sent 30 days prior to the renewal date. Please notify us 60 days prior to the renewal date
should you choose to cancel your subscription, in order to not receive an invoice.

Which devices and operating systems are supported?


Soundtrap for Education works on Windows PCs, Macs and Chromebooks, as well as Android and iOS devices.
All you need to do is to go to http://soundtrap.com no installations or downloads are necessary, as
Soundtrap runs directly in your browser. For Chromebooks, Soundtrap for Education is available on the
Google Play for Education store. Standalone apps for Android and iOS are under development.

What are the hardware requirements?


Soundtrap for Education will successfully run on all available Windows PCs, Macs, Chromebooks and iOS
devices on the market, that are not older than 5 years. For Android devices, we recommend using devices that
are purchased within the last 3 years. Performance on these devices will vary, however, depending on their
technical specications, and how Soundtrap for Education is being used. Recording audio and using loops do
not require high-end hardware, for example, while using the built-in virtual instruments and sound eects will
require a slightly stronger computer or device. You can easily evaluate whether or not your hardwares
performance is satisfactory just by using the free version of Soundtrap.
