I’m assuming the answer to the question is a big NO, but thought I’d ask to be sure…
I’m preparing a set of 10 tracks to submit to an exclusive library. Is it best professional practice to WAIT for their acceptance (or rejection) before sending off to another exclusive library for consideration?
Or, are libraries somewhat understanding if you have another set ready to go to offer them, in the event the first batch of tracks got picked up by another library? I don’t want to burn any bridges, but I also have trouble waiting months to hear back…
thanks for any advice!!

That’s what I have done also.

That’s what I have done also.I have been doing this as well. There is no harm in gracefully declining the offer for those Tracks/Music, and let them know that you are working on “What you feel is your best work yet” and that you will only submit it to them.. Wink, wink, wink.
December 27, 2017 at 5:27 pm #29091abbyGuestAh, I like that… choosing the best offer from among the libraries, the best one wins! And also a way to gracefully keep the door open, by offering new future tracks only for them..
thanks everyone! I wasn’t expecting to hear this.
December 27, 2017 at 6:09 pm #29092BEATSLINGERParticipantThis literally is “War”. They are acting like they (libraries/catalogs/stock music sites) are the only game going, and if we are not with them personally & exclusively; we are missing “The Only Boat”..
Sure, there is an “influx” of new writers; talented though? “The Real Premium are Quality, and Qualified Writers/Composers!!”
I keep saying this.. No company in their right mind wants a guy that is composing $5/$10/$15 Cues. As well, the real companies aren’t signing them. We have to stand up for ourselves; and start letting them know “Who’s REALLY Buttering The Bread!!”
December 28, 2017 at 4:51 pm #29095abbyGuestyeah, I could agree with that, although it seems like the butter can’t go very far without the bread!
