I’ve been offered a 100% Writers to me and they take 100% Publishers with a 50/50 Sync Fee split. How does this look to composer who are use to deals.Honestly, I would “Spend The Bread, and “Sit Down” with someone that can really go through the contract with You'”. Certain things “Might” seem the Norm/Typical, but it’s better to really have someone “break everything down and tell you exactly what it means!”
I figure it will give you an opportunity to gain the knowledge, by knowing the terminology, and “general legalese”. From there, You will “pretty-much” see the same wording in future contracts; and know the gist of things.
You just said it all in one really. I’m curious to know anyones experience with xxxx cues. The rating on MLR is the highest I’ve seen.
If you have a question about a particular library please leave it on it’s listing.
…From there, You will “pretty-much” see the same wording in future contracts; and know the gist of things.
Totally agree with Beatslinger — you’ll be seeing the same basic sections repeatedly so after a while you’ll be able to quickly spot those aspects you’re looking to a have in a deal as well as those you want to avoid.
As far as my contract choices, among other things, I always consider the length of the agreement into the decision equation: 1 year, 3 years, 5 years, perpetuity?
There really is no “right” or “best” deal. A bad deal for one person can be a blessing for someone else. The best deal is the one that meets your needs and is a match for your current situation.

Does anyone know much about a composer’s music being placed on promo’s for tv like ABC etc is it a good side to be on? What sort of sync fees are we talking, backend if any.
The reason I’m asking is because ABC promo’s is the libraries main focus.
Any insight would be great.
Thanks.I guess I’m an “Old Pro at this” so I’m not worried about asking questions.
Did you simply ask what this entails, and did you do your “research” on the company/library to see what they are currently doing/Relevance? As well, how they are fairing in the market-place?The library which can not be mention on the post, has one of the higher user ratings on this site.
If you are in “Constant Contact”, simply ask.. “Hey Man/Woman, how much do You think I stand to make”.
Anything is possible. I literally trade recipe’s with One of The Biggest Execs at UMG..
I have asked about avarage sync fees, with no real reply apart from it varies. which is right maybe he does not want to say in case nothing ever comes through.
I can tell you first-hand.
“Promos for Major Networks, that appear on Major Networks? Pay WAY Differently!!”
