| Royalty Music - Experience
Question of robbitobbi: November 2007
Hi,
would like to here a few times sometimes frustrating experiences synonymous post.
I am now since about 8 months with the topic of video. It began with the idea to my field of print and Internet to expand the film. Great idea, but it was so easy then do not. Starting in the search for the right equipment (hardware / software) about the handling, etc. I had to actually take the time to me so "incidentally" in the subject einzufuchsen.
A non-first problem is the soundtrack of the films, Royalty is the background music, and embed.
The solution seemed to find as I go on the program SmartSound am rise. Finally (to my ears ") a good & varied music. So I needed to me of the title for Stück/15 Eur runtergeladen, Other .. wrong, because they only in Germany (wg. Gema) applications. What I am up a few days ago but did not know. 2 movies that have been developed, which I now recall, is obviously a big nuisance. While it is possible to Lizensschwierigkeiten of SmartSound noted, however, so hidden and obscure, this program is that I no longer want to use and is now looking for an alternative.
The collections offered on Ebay are terrible. When you listen to some example titles, I was totally distraught and had thought that surely can not be taken seriously. Some here have posted in the forum pages are often but not synonymous - ähmmmm - my taste! (eg mastertracks.de) 50 euros per title überhaubt is not appropriate. The first impression of soundtaxi.net is pretty good and the prices are in Lizensklasse 1 synonymous ok. Will I probably something closer look. On pages Com. trust I'm not so ran, even though I offered the Music of freeplaymusic.com very interesting find. But with my good, but only English school I should not repeat such a mistake in running, as with SmartSound. Also I do not see immediately what each title would cost. So I do not like something, or did I miss something here?
The idea of me the music itself to create (eg with Magix) synonymous, I have already given - is because the rights synonymous but not so clear - see http://www.video-internal.com/index.php?id=71 .
In the field of professional photography there are sites like "http://www.istockphoto.com". Just as a price performance ratio, I would synonymous for Lizensfreie Music wish!
So, now I wait for a set (DVD with 13 hours music) the Royalty should be. How then the quality will be suspect, I know. But maybe I will be so surprised :-)
Reply smooth-app:
Na da bin ich ja mal surprised. What kind of DVD is it and how is your first impression?
Gema-free translated means: "95% of trash"
The best offer: http://www.magnatune.com/ Because every single song will cost money, but the fees are very variable and of many factors (usBudget the film) dependent.
That way you can be in small productions, a lot of money saved.
The quality is mixed up well. Some pieces are very nice and especially many bands instead of one-man show at Geklimper Synthi, keyboard and sequencer.
Who knows something better, please register here. It's about quality music and not about any provider to call the Gema-free music offers. Of this fact there are hundreds.

Without the at Magnatune but not synonymous. See this link:

With SmartSound, there are actually quite strong evidence for the albums, which albums GEMA are free and what problems could make! Go to their website, because you can trial synonymous hear all the albums. Each song from an album Gema-free then yes you can download separately.

The notice on the home page "New - Royalty-Free Music: In the new license-free section you will find all the license-free CDs. " There were half a year ago but as yet. And I can not synonymous clear indications s.andere remember.
You've right, the current state of the SmartSound-Page is now clear in this case. But what about with music.download.com

Soundtraxx of www.digital-Juice.com Royalty free world, according to manufacturer. Test notification to the GEMA is still no response, are synonymous until 8 weeks have passed. :) The Music is gelayerd, ie you can hide Elemete. Each DVD is playable online for the choice, it is synonymous with the taste the layers. Of delivery within 3 days. Offers considered. Usually you get 10 DVD's for $ 249 plus about $ 45-50 freight and 19 fairy tales tax.

The whole thing with sound smart but I was not completely released.
The following response from SmartSound Support, I have to problems with the Gema receive:
All of the SmartSound music can be legally used, and GEMA does not have the right to collect royalties on any of those songs. That has always been the case, and continues to be the case. We had a legal case in Germany for several years trying to clarify everything with GEMA, however they are not easy to work with. Any songs on the list that are listed as "royalty free in Germany" are ones that GEMA has officially recognized s.royalty-free. That means that, should you use those songs, GEMA should find those songs registered in their database and know that no money is due for the use of those songs. The other songs are ones that GEMA will not list in their system s.royalty-free (usually because they have other songs by the same composer who do they collect royalties for).
That said, I did hear from one customer that they still attempted to bill him for songs they know they should not be billing for. So with GEMA, you just never know what they might do. They seem to bill first and deal with any questions later.
Our position remains the same: GEMA does NOT have the rights to collect royalties on any songs that we sell. I have personally worked with every German customer who has contacted me regarding a bill (for any songs, not just the ones marked 'royalty free') and I have always been able to have the bill dismissed. Should you ever receive a bill from GEMA, please contact me immediately and I will assist you.
The reason we do not advertise many of our songs s.royalty-free in Canada and list them as "not free license" is because we know they are not on GEMA's list. That does not mean you do not have the rights to use the music, it just means that you might be hassled by GEMA if you do. And since we do not want our customers bothered, we have chosen to warn you in advance (now that we know the situation) before purchasing so you are aware of the situation. So, I can not guarantee that I will be able to get GEMA to drop a bill in the future. Although I've always been successful in the past, they are extremely difficult to deal with and I can not guarantee the same results in the future.
We continue to try to work with GEMA to get all of our songs listed s.royalty-free with them, and I hope in the future we will be able to get information from them that will help make this easier for everyone.
I hope that clarifies things for you. If you have any additional questions, please let me know.

@ Host Thanks for the info
GEMA - always nice and makes all her name, earned over decades, honor ;-) Not that I generally low GEMA would appreciate, is sometimes necessary and right, but a little too bissl "zeal", they seem to remain to be.
@ Flati Do you have a list of materials with Smart Sound, which is NOT as "royalty free" in Germany and is still (after verification) Gema-free? How could you look at the respective gear to Canossa, or audit by the GEMA perhaps a little easier and to show them that the title already GEMA-free run. If what you did, it would be great if you tell us the list could be available.
Reply Flati:
Here is the list where I have (attached)

Why do we need a release if one with SmartSound dubbed?
Or do you share with that title or albums you've used in the SmartSound not as GEMA-free status?

Reply smooth-appeal:
Did I really ever mentioned that I GEMA think sucks?
I will in the future the music themselves, Reason 3.0 and thousands of samples I have bought some time ago and I recently increasingly busy times. This makes it much better results than one for most Gema-Freie providers will offer.
Not for nothing synonymous work so many good musicians. To whom should we measure synonymous Music!
I can only recommend any program. For more complex items such as rock, hard rock or classical music on I Tunes Magna, which m. E. really an excellent selection of music possess.
The cost for the Music and / or licensing of course, the client pays. Either he would like something high quality, or he will become one of the many other providers are already on their website "Uncle Willi MiniDV with the" Close it.

You need the title synonymous with Royalty is a press release for, without these you will not release a DVD stamping presses. So is a purely bureaucratic process, but it costs nothing.

Aha, that is the release you need if you can squeeze in the works to be carried out. In-house production is no need to release when free Gema Music used?

Even if you do burn yourself, a release is necessary, strictly speaking, synonymous already s.1 piece. It does not matter whether the DVD will be sold or given away.
Reply Steppenwolf22:
Quite rightly, no preference whether you even can copy or paste. Any reproduction is subject to the GEMA game. In stamping plants it is the common practice with the "GEMA exemption" halt only really obvious ;-)
For free DVDs (ie "Promo" in the jargon GEMA), there are requirements for small-GEMA a minimum amount of EUR 0.0265 per song per DVD, if you are not in the calculation mode drüber come. Tip: the world is a Guhgl!
Moreover, it is worth noting that the use of GEMA subject material is not only the GEMA exemption, but the authors predict synonymous exemption on each occasion. That means you have besides the GEMA fees schlimmstensfalls a license fee paid s.den rights holders, but at least its consent OK - what mintunter can be very pointless.
Generally, I believe, however, the practice of stamping themselves as quasi-executive arm of the GEMA to commit wrong. Some stamping write "they would be obliged to collect waivers. Others (a few) do not. If, then commit yourself rather then from their own pieces to purely legal because it does not seem possible that a private company generally is required to another private company before order acceptance testing concedes this may be so burdensome licensing or duplication fees may recover. If there is a law, I would be interested in this paragraph. Because this practice can be seen in other industry None imagine. Had similar so yes, when should a TV Dealers GEZ the purchase of the data from the same buyer durchgeben. That would probably be a huge outcry lead - at GEMA you are already accustomed.
OT: Guess who is with the retention of telecommunications data s.meisten can go to the leather? Klaro, sharing the users & Co. - for this prosecution ... a perfect measure because some rub certainly have their hands ... sorry, what I write, of course this is all just for the security against terrorists, phew! :-)
