Music for YouTube videos: what to know
Monetized channels
Monetized videos are commercial use, including ads, sponsors and memberships. Downloads on Pro and Premium cover them.
Content ID
Sonilo does not register library tracks with Content ID, so the track itself should not trigger a claim. If a claim appears anyway, dispute it and link the track page as your license.
Mix for YouTube
YouTube normalizes playback to about −14 LUFS. Keep music 12–18 dB below your voice, and check it on a phone speaker, where most viewers listen.
Pair it with sound effects
