What you can change depends on the release status. Kalmori's release-state protections exist so live releases are not accidentally broken.
| Change | Draft / Needs Action / Rejected | Under review | Approved / Distributing | Live |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Artwork | You can edit | Locked | Via Support — redelivery | Via Support — redelivery |
| Metadata (title, genre, credits) | You can edit | Locked | Via Support | Via Support — some fields fixed |
| Release date | You can edit | Locked | Via Support | Cannot change |
| Replace audio | You can edit | Locked | Via Support — re-review | Via Support — re-review |
| Artist names | You can edit | Locked | Via Support | Via Support — may affect profiles |
| ISRC / UPC | Before assignment | Locked | Cannot change | Cannot change |
Redelivery
Changes after distribution are sent to platforms as an update (redelivery). Platforms apply updates on their own schedule and some fields — identifiers, release date, primary artist on a live release — cannot be safely changed once published. In those cases the correct route is a takedown and a new release.
Warning:
Warning: Changing audio or artist names after release can break the link between the release and its streams or playlist placements. Ask Support before requesting the change.
