In this guide, we will look into how you can add an audio or multiple audio files to your NFTs. Note that adding the audio will happen during the creation of the token-type (NFT template).
📘
You need to have the URL of the audio address that you wish to add. If you need to upload your media, then learn how to on quantum Servers.
Prerequisites
