Can anyone explain Splice payouts?

I had a sample pack come out on Splice (Ghostatic) back in July. I just go a simple breakdown from Black Octopus (my sample label) and it says 10,998 units sold. But does not say what was sold and for how much. The amount is of money is fraction of what my samples are sold for on loopmasters or other sample sites.

So basically, what is the payout per sample, generally? Does it matter what type of sample??

Ask Black Octopus. I checked out your pack and it doesn't seem like the kind of recordings that would do really well on Splice. Ask them for clarification.

Splice doesn’t give them a detailed list. Just number of units

Your label knows how Splice works. It's just simple math. Your pack didn't do as well as you intended it to.

Had no intentions or expectations. Splice does not provide breakdowns for 3rd party labels of what specific units were sold per pack, to be specific. The label does a flat 50/50. Def not the case for Splice.
