Last quarter was good nothing this quarter. Maybe the new company that is taking over BMI will be an improvement. Thought I read where they have millions to pay out…who all gets that I wonder….

Some of my thoughts on this subject………IMHO
I believe that new tools coming out embracing AI will be better and faster at helping us to create and make better sounding music. I already see that in Isotope products….so there is money there and we still have a job. I see a silver lining in this…. it’s new tech and there is always a fear factor at first but we still need to make music and get paid that really is the main goal. I welcome the new opportunities and the potential new ways they can use my music maybe it won’t be in film or TV. If streaming and now Datasets seems to be the flavor of the day …hey to me another avenue to explore. More libraries in time will undoubtedly go down the P5 road. I’ve witnessed AM to FM, Vinyl to Cassettes to CD’s to streaming and now A.I and we all got on board with the latest new tech …… I was also in Information Technology for 22 years were updates and changes moved at the speed of light and AI was always there also especially in cybersecurity big time. Got my feet wet a long time ago with AI. For me there was always a way to prosper under a new technology. Please take a moment to read the link above it may answer some of your questions.If you use Kontakt, NI, Heavyocity etc…they are a bunch of samples alot of other composers use….we could debate for days… I have been around and around on Splice and I will tell you to at all cost’s avoid complete full loops….even though you are allowed to use them it can be a hassel with the libraries also do not use vocal phrase’s and try to alter any sample that may have a melody of sorts …Pads should be fine…..just use common sense and know the boundaries as a composer..to stay out of trouble..check out the article on Justine Beiber….https://www.theverge.com/2020/2/17/21140838/justin-bieber-changes-running-over-asher-monroe-synergy-splice-sample-melody
here is an example of one of my emails from Splice…..Abbie (Splice)

Hey there!Thanks for writing in. If you wish to submit your work to a production music library you can, but you do have restrictions to providing the samples you’ve used in isolation. This means that the samples you use need to either be edited to the point of it not being recognized as the original sample or include it in a combination of other sounds.
For this particular example, you cannot provide stems of the samples or a template of your project because this would cause the sample to be in isolation.
Please let us know if you need help with anything else!
Keep Making Music,
Abbie
Splice Customer ExperienceI only use Splice I personally would not use any sample packs from another source to me splice is crystal clear on where these samples come from and what you can do and can not do with them. Remember you don’t own them Splice does……
hope I have helped clear up the murk some …….

Great Question johnnyboy!…10 to 15 at a time……. gives my ears a chance to cool on the track.I get more inspiration when I walk away for a bit. if i can’t get it to work the way I want it to in a reasonable time or the compositions is just not happening… it gets deleted usually that only happens in the beginning phase…to many other melodies to pick from in the universe…but that’s just me ..I rotate like that and I have a hopper method I run it through Isotope and EXPOSE until I have that feeling you get when enough is enough and the track is good to go…..like Art I’m not fast so I don’t do deadlines….. my tracks are a representation of me and my work and I want people to feel an emotion from them and libraries to accept them so I take my time…I tend to do admin, check out plugins, tweak my templates, read MLR do any software upgrades in the morn and work on my tracks later in late afternoon into the evening along with a ice cold shot of good bourbon …..lol
