Hey everyone I'm new to this forum and a new addition to the whitelabel.net community. I have been using Serato software for approximatly a year and a half and started out with Itch. As of recently tho, I find myself using multiple setups to cater to the type of event that I am booked. For starters is Serato Intro supported for playback of the .wl.mp3s? I use live when I can get a box for my 1200s, itch as a practice setup mostly (vci-300s lack of ins/outs), and the Numark Mixdeck for pretty much everything else. To be relevant with the Whitelabel forums tho :P I am extremely grateful to have an account here and my primary concern (the reason for this post) is how to use this service properly.
I understand that the music available on this site is for promotional purposes and simply playing the track would be within the terms of use. Where I am unsure tho is to what extent can the tracks obtained from whitelabel be used? In example am I able to record a mix with songs from whitelabel in the Serato programs? If recording mixes is permitted in what way is the "right" way to distribute the recording. In general my previous practice of this was cd handouts at shows and soundcloud with the option to download. I always give credit where credit is due in regards to this and always include track titles and artists on soundcloud as well as in the id3 tags of the mp3s. I guess in short I would just like to know where is the line drawn. Spending a quarter of a gigs pay for the old "new" songs adds up quick as Im sure everyone would agree.
Thanks in advance to anyone that is willing to help point me in the right direction here. I am looking forward to utilizing whitelabel for upcoming shows, just need to get a good starting point established. Sorry for such a long post and the typos, kinda late here.
Thanks again!!!!!

is it legal to record white label files into your own sort of mixtape and distribute them via internet or through hard copy

sorry for the delayed responce but thank you for the feedback. I figured the recording of whitelabel files for promotional use was more than likely a no-go im just glad i could clarify this. Thanks again
