Four steps. The same on iPhone, Android, Mac, Windows and Linux.
Quick answer
To transfer SoundCloud to Qobuz, install FreeYourMusic, select SoundCloud as the source and Qobuz as the destination, choose the playlists you want, and start the transfer. The app finds each song on Qobuz and lists any track it could not match.

Good to know before you move SoundCloud to Qobuz
SoundCloud as the source
Playlists, liked tracks and followed artists can move from SoundCloud. Many SoundCloud tracks are remixes or fan uploads that other services do not have, so check the results.

One Qobuz playlist holds at most 1,000 songs from a transfer. FreeYourMusic cannot add songs to your Qobuz favourite tracks.

Moving from SoundCloud to Qobuz, explained
This is a move between two very different worlds — SoundCloud’s raw, independent uploads and Qobuz’s curated hi-res FLAC catalogue with deep classical and jazz. It works best when much of your SoundCloud library is officially released music you want in the highest quality. FreeYourMusic reads your SoundCloud library through SoundCloud’s official sign-in and recreates it inside Qobuz — playlists and followed artists, wherever Qobuz carries them.
This guide explains what transfers, what cannot, how songs are matched, how long it takes, and how the two services really differ. If you just want to begin, install FreeYourMusic, connect both accounts and pick what to move — the detail is below.
What transfers to Qobuz, and what does not
Your playlists move with names and order preserved, and followed artists carry over where Qobuz has them. Liked tracks do not transfer into Qobuz. Move everything or choose playlists individually, with counts shown before you commit.
Be candid about the gap: Qobuz is a curated, licensed catalogue, so SoundCloud’s independent uploads, remixes, bootlegs and DJ sets are the least likely of any destination to appear. Officially released tracks match; artist-only uploads usually have no counterpart and are flagged rather than forced.
How FreeYourMusic matches your tracks
Each SoundCloud track is matched to the same recording in Qobuz, preferring the ISRC code where a release carries one and falling back to title, artist and duration otherwise. Because Qobuz cares about editions and masters, matches are precise when they exist.
For SoundCloud-only uploads there will often be no match at all, and FreeYourMusic never pretends otherwise — anything without a clean counterpart is flagged for one-tap Rematch, so you can find an official release if one exists.
How long does a SoundCloud to Qobuz transfer take?
Most transfers finish in minutes. With both accounts connected, around 1,000 tracks usually completes in under ten minutes, though checking independent uploads against a curated catalogue can add time. Larger libraries take longer, but the transfer runs on its own.
FreeYourMusic runs natively on iPhone, iPad, Android, Mac, Windows and Linux, so the move is not tied to one machine. Start it on your laptop and check progress on your phone; it is the same account and the same transfer.
SoundCloud vs Qobuz: what actually changes
These two could hardly be more different. SoundCloud is the open frontier — unsigned artists, remixes and DJ mixes, free and rough-edged. Qobuz is the audiophile’s curated library and store, built on hi-res FLAC, editorial booklets and depth in classical and jazz.
Moving to Qobuz makes sense for the officially released, higher-fidelity part of your taste. What you leave behind is nearly everything that made SoundCloud distinctive, so this is usually a move for a specific slice of your library rather than a full switch — keep SoundCloud for the rest.
Do you need to keep SoundCloud while you transfer?
Yes — keep SoundCloud active until the transfer is finished and checked. FreeYourMusic reads your SoundCloud library while copying it into Qobuz, and keeping both live means you never lose access mid-move.
SoundCloud has a free tier, but Qobuz has no permanent free tier, so you will need a Qobuz trial or subscription to receive the transfer. Both connect through their own official sign-in, and your password is never shared with FreeYourMusic.
Tips for a clean migration
Given the coverage gap, transfer a representative playlist first and review the matches before moving everything — it tells you honestly how much of your SoundCloud library exists on Qobuz. Focus the move on your officially released favourites.
When the transfer finishes, work through the Rematch list to find official releases, set Qobuz to hi-res, and keep SoundCloud for the independent material Qobuz will never carry.
Keeping SoundCloud and Qobuz in sync afterwards
A one-time move is not your only option. Since these libraries barely overlap, many people keep both — SoundCloud for discovery, Qobuz for sound — and FreeYourMusic’s Auto-Sync mirrors them on a schedule so a track you add to a SoundCloud playlist appears on Qobuz where it exists.
And the transfer runs the other way too, from Qobuz back to SoundCloud, if you want. Your collection stays portable. Download FreeYourMusic, connect SoundCloud and Qobuz, and see how much comes across — the free tier lets you try first.
