SOCAN does pay for commercials that air in Canada but they have to be uploaded to BMAT to receive royalties as of 2022. Almost every country does pay for commercials in their own territory and they will relay the money back to SOCAN to pay you. Commercials aren't always tracked with cue sheets, it's tricky. Every channel uses different services to detect what is airing like soundmouse, BMAT ect..

@@Afilion Gotcha, ya I’m seeing more commercial placements pop up on my statements these days, and they’ve all been outside of Canada. I’m not sure why the SOCAN rep I spoke to would have told me otherwise.

"I always wanted a pedal steel guitar.." that was always my dream too when i was young. Not in a country style playing way but more like in pop, Jeff Baxter was my hero back then, with his magical playing on the earlier Steely Dan albums. But the future had other plans so i became an more ordinary guitar player. But yesterday i stumbled upon Ink Steel wich was on a discount and fell in love. I cannot read chords, notes or score but im am sure i will find my way with this fantastic plugin. Started to learn about diatonic chords etc. This is fun! Thanks for sharing!

Interesting, but it's funny how so many young people continue trying to re-create music from the past (Disco / 808) instead of trying to compose something new. I've been composing for 50 years and after using Logic's new features, I'm sure it will help young musicians that know nothing about music theory to get something together but I'm not really sure that it is going to improve there musical ability in the long run.

Identifyy is a scam. you cant authorize your own channels unless you meet $100 per quarter earnings. so unless you get thousands of people unauthorized using your tracks, you will be locked out of your own youtube channel for 3 years and if you dont remember to discontinue identifyy they will auto renew you another 3 years obliigation..... scam scam scam!!!!

I have given up with MA with their tedious application system making you wait months just to be turned down. And yet I have had great success with other libraries for 15 years. I can't be bothered to wait 6 months to apply again. Sales are dropping off everywhere now anyway as AI, zillions of plugins kills off real hand played musical instruments and home made samples and loops. Good for you if you are.making good money.

Hunter's vocals are great in your track ...was nicely surprised by your use of the Fink guitar, and blending that with the original Heart and Hollow plus your own live playing ...it all hangs together so nicely. I don't know how everyone else listening feels, but when you're rolling ...the track pulls at the heart ...I'm not absorbed by the tech making it happen (even though that's what I was watching your video for). Thanks for doing this!

What most guitar libraries are still missing is some decent guitar feedback sounds, like different (amp feedback) swells that you can blend in with rock tracks or use as a cinematic pad. I'm surprised that these kinds of sounds are often not included, while they are so essential for (rock) guitars. (I'm still hoping Native Instruments with do a guitar version of Piano Colors and add some feedback options.)

Quarterone sounds amazing. My favorite of all of these. I’ll have to pick it up at some point. I’m not strictly writing production music. But I’m taking inspiration from it. I’m a commercial editor who uses production music all the time. We produce short documentaries for medical schools about intense trauma cases, and I’m trying to set aside the time to compose the music for those stories. It’s a nice way to channel creativity while producing stories about events that are pretty horrific. Anyway, thanks for sharing about these libraries.

Hi Steven! Wonderful and informative video. Quick question: Is it a requirement to use a middle-man (like Identifyy) to get paid for your songs used in any YT videos? Why can't you simply register your songs in YT's Content ID and skip bringing another company (and 30%) into the mix? I have compositions that I will be personally using for my videos (not registered with any stock music companies for licensing, etc, only with my PRO)...but I want to be paid if any of my tracks are stolen by creators on KZfaq. Does YT Content ID adequately cover stolen content and pay you, or is a company like Identifyy needed to ensure policing/payment? Thanks so much!

My question is: is it better to cast your net wide and make a wide variety of genres or to zero in on the niche your best at and just hammer that genre in hopes people return to you for that specific style? My strengths are in orchestral/film stuff but can also do beats and things
@Steven_BeddallАй бұрын
@@birdseye2239 I think the real question is what’s more fun for you? You have to enjoy the process. I know at least for me, I would go totally crazy producing in only one genre. I think it’s worth tackling a few different styles if you’re up for it. Makes the process a lot more enjoyable and you become more valuable to the publishers as well.
