With Wix, you have a dedicated Music Media Manager. This media manager is completely separate to your site's main Media Manager. The Music Media Manager stores all your audio files, while the main Media Manager stores your general files, such as images, videos and documents.
You can access the Music Media Manager from your Music Library. The Music Media Manager lets you add, edit and delete audio files.
