More FAQ’s

Catalog & Shopping

πŸ”Ž How can I find music in the catalog?

You can either browse or search the catalog.

Browse by instrumentation using the menu. You can also browse by instrumentation, new releases, and best-sellers on the Shop page.

To search, click the search icon in the menu and enter search terms in the search bar. Advanced Search options are available on the Shop page and will also appear automatically if no results are found.

πŸ“š Do you offer printed music?

Yes, though availability is limited. Select titles are offered as physical printed editions shipped within the continental United States only.

Digital downloads are available worldwide and are delivered instantly after purchase.

For printed copies, most titles are available through J.W. Pepper, a leading sheet music distributor.

πŸ“š Do printed editions include digital files?

No, unless explicitly stated. Digital and print licenses are separate.

Downloads & Shipping

πŸ“¦ How long are download links available?

Download links remain active for 30 days after purchase. You may download your files as needed during this period.

πŸ“¦ Can I download my files again later?

Yes. During the active download period (30 days after purchase), you can re-download your files using the download links in your email receipt, or access them via your account.

πŸ“¦ What can I use digital downloads for?

Personal, educational, rehearsal, liturgical, and performance use, as specified in the Terms of Use.

🚚 How long does it take for printed editions to ship?

Printed editions are special-order items produced in limited quantities. Please allow 1–2 weeks for processing before shipment.

Processing time begins once your order is received and confirmed. After your order ships, you will receive a confirmation email. Delivery time then depends on USPS transit times to your location.

🚚 Why did my Flat Rate shipping option disappear at checkout?

If you see a Flat Rate shipping option, but later get the message:

β€œThere are no shipping options available…”

it usually means your shipping address was not fully re-validated when you returned to checkout.

To fix it, go to the Checkout page and make sure the Billing Country is set to United States. In some cases, billing and shipping information may also need to be completed before the Flat Rate shipping option reappears. Additionally, you may need to clear your browser cache.

This is normal checkout behavior and is resolved by completing the steps above.

Accounts

πŸ‘€ What are the benefits of having an account?

You can view your complete order history indefinitely, and re-download eligible purchases during the active download period (30 days after purchase).
