What do I need to do to get started with Microsync Distribution?

To begin with Microsync Distribution, you’ll need to ensure both your master and publishing rights are fully cleared for synchronization. This means securing a synchronization license that includes:

Master Rights: These are the rights to the actual sound recording of your music. You must have the authority, either as the rights holder or with permission from the rights holder, to license these recordings for use in various media formats.
Publishing Rights: These involve the musical composition, lyrics, and any underlying works of your music. It’s essential that these rights are also cleared, which involves coordinating with songwriters, composers, and, in many cases, music publishers.

With both sets of rights secured, we can then distribute your music to digital service providers across our network, where it can be used in a range of projects. Our team will guide you through the process of documentation and verification to ensure all your tracks are ready for synchronization and compliant with legal requirements.

What type of music or artists do you see this working best for?

This model is particularly beneficial for artists and labels with diverse or extensive catalogs that may not have mainstream appeal but hold value for specific uses, like background music for videos, podcasts, or commercial projects. It’s also ideal for music with cultural specificity or thematic uniqueness, which can thrive on platforms seeking varied content to cater to broad audiences.

The business terms for Microsync Distribution are designed to be straightforward and rightsholder-friendly, ensuring transparency and fairness in our partnership. Here are the key terms we typically include:

Fees: We operate on a revenue-sharing model. Our standard commission is 30% of the net revenue generated from each sync license your music secures. This means we only earn when you earn, aligning our interests with yours to maximize your revenue.

Non-Exclusive License: The Microsync Distribution license you grant us is non-exclusive, allowing you the flexibility to continue distributing your music through other channels simultaneously. You maintain ownership of your music and are free to explore additional revenue streams outside of our agreement.

Term and Termination: The standard contract duration is one year from the date of signing, automatically renewable unless either party opts out with a 30-day notice before the renewal date. You can terminate the agreement with a 60-day notice if you find that our services no longer meet your needs. This gives you the freedom to reassess your participation without being locked into a long-term commitment.

We provide all our clients with access to a dashboard where you can monitor the usage of your tracks, track earnings in real-time, and view detailed analytics about where and how your music is being utilized. This transparency allows you to see exactly what you’re earning and how your music is performing across different platforms.

How does Microsync Distribution differ from standard synchronization?

Tinko Georgiev — Wed, 24 Apr 2024 08:37:21 +0000

Microsync Distribution is a specialized form of synchronization that is designed to handle large volumes of copyrights on a scalable level. Unlike standard synchronization, which typically involves negotiating individual sync licenses for each use case—often a time-consuming and costly process—Microsync Distribution simplifies and streamlines this by enabling the licensing of numerous tracks simultaneously through a single platform.

How does Microsync Distribution handle usage reporting and accounting?

Tinko Georgiev — Wed, 24 Apr 2024 08:36:35 +0000

Microsync Distribution adopts a reporting and accounting framework that mirrors what you’d expect from digital distribution platforms, making the transition smooth for those already familiar with digital music revenues. Unlike traditional synchronization, which often depends on sporadic, large-scale deals, Microsync Distribution focuses on a high volume of microtransactions. This means that every use of your music—whether it’s in a social media video, a podcast intro, or a mobile app background—generates a small payment, similar to how streaming works.

Why is Microsync Distribution labeled distribution?

Tinko Georgiev — Wed, 24 Apr 2024 08:35:41 +0000

The term “distribution” in Microsync Distribution encapsulates our approach to strategically disseminate and manage your music across a diverse array of platforms and with numerous digital service providers on a broad scale.

Unlike traditional synchronization which often involves negotiating single, often large-scale, end-usage deals (such as a specific track placement in a film or a one-time advertisement campaign), Microsync Distribution is designed to secure multiple synchronization licenses across a spectrum of uses.

This approach taps into a more dynamic and continuous revenue stream, aligning your music with various multimedia projects like online videos, games, and smaller-scale commercial uses simultaneously. This method not only broadens the exposure of your music but also enhances the potential for consistent and compounded earnings, diverging from the hit-or-miss nature of traditional sync deals.

How can Microsync Distribution specifically increase my earnings?

Tinko Georgiev — Wed, 17 Apr 2024 08:43:56 +0000

Microsync distribution enhances your earnings by licensing your music directly to digital services, where your tracks are being used in various projects, from social media content to corporate videos. You earn money when end-users incorporate your music into their projects.
