We are part of the roster of Audiosocket (as a band). All we can say is that they do care about their artists! Our rep. Vanessa is always available for any questions and doubts, and the feeling we got is of a really human and warm company, compared to others we've been working with. Thanks Vanessa, Jenn and Audiosocket!
Extremely helpful video! I've been a music-only songwriter for over 10 years but what I write is very "band sounding". I've often been told over the years to look into sync placement but I didn't know anything about it, what they even look for someone like me, etc.
Audio Socket takes 75% unless you’re exclusive with them. Then it’s 50/50 industry standard BUT if you’re exclusive then they’re gonna take 50% of your writers royalty. Geeezus!
Knowing the budgets and price averages is so useful. Can't count how many times I have been offered 300 for a song vs 3000. subjective but so important to stay knowledgeable on. Love ATA thx
it's confusing! I just continue to make music, however I want to be more serious about how I can monetize my passion! Been listening to your podcast on Apple Music. Thanks for traversing the jungle!
Thanks for posting this video with great info for free instead of making us pay for access to get the information. Tons of RUclipsrs gate keep and click bait us without even giving us the name of the company to research and submit music to.
you def helping me hone my plan of attack so to speak. i think im more of a sync license recording artist than a performing artist at this point in my career.
Question everyone, my engineer is very busy and always encourages me to get my sessions over stems and also asks me if im more interested in wet stems over dry stems. Can anyone give thoughts on this? He says any other engineer can help me get my stems from my sessions. I am just not very informed on stems and until Jenn mentions it for 'Audio Shake" didn't realize exactly how important they can be.
He means just the raw sound files. He is right, any studio you go to should be able and willing to give you your session or atleast the raw files so in case you need to work somewhere else or send them off.. you have them and dont need to chase other people for YOUR vocals…
Thanks for holding this interview up Ari! You asked all the right questions and makes a lot of sense. I've been writing for production music for the last couple of years, but plan on regularly putting out albums when I can. This helps with knowing what to expect when approaching certain libraries and how to high to aim.
Hi. Great interview. Thanks. I have a question; is it a good idea to register tunes with a PRO before approaching companies like Audiosocket, or would they prefer to propose publishing deals themselves to secure back end payments?
hey! yes, it's best to get your music properly registered with a PRO beforehand. you can learn more about this here: aristake.com/what-is-soundexchange-ascap-bmi-pros-hfa-mechanicals-and-how-to-get-all-your-royalties/
At @ the 37:10 mark you mention that a co-writers publishing deal could ruin a sync license. If I own 100% of the master rights, do the composition splits or publishing deals of co-writers matter at that point? Thanks.
Hey Ari, I started in the music business about 5 years ago and have had some headway. I have created my own label and worked with many artists and industry executives. I would like to know if you would be interested in taking me on as your personal mentee?
Be very careful with what you are agreeing to and understand exclusive vs non exclusive deals and the percentages and impact to publishing as no one size fits all but know your business before signing off the rights. Look on their site to see their terms along with all other sync agents before moving forward
My question is about music created using "Exclusive" beats. If I create music using "Exclusive" beat leasing, can it be used for synch with sports ads or sports related promotions?
They have two catalogs: ASX which is exclusive to ASX meaning you (artist) has only listed your music with Audiosocket. Their non exclusive catalog is for artists wanting to list their music with multiple libraries. This is the trade-off: if you choose to list non-exclusively - your music is placed with more libraries/agents, *possibly* resulting in more exposure for smaller sync rights licensing deals. A listing non-exclusively at Audiosocket which has a sync license placement results in a 25% agent commission - you receive 75% of fees. Exclusively submitting to Audiosocket - means you can’t submit your works to another library. Trade off: larger companies with bigger budgets more willing to work with exclusive libraries (no chance another company will buy sync rights for the same song for a different ad campaign or tv show etc). Artists music is more likely to be considered for bigger budget projects - split is 50/50 with agent/artist. You can submit to Audiosocket either way - you have to weight the pros and cons.

She mentioned about the STEMs company. I just used DeMix to pull 3,000 stems over the last year for a library. I wonder how good their AI is. Yes, composers don't like doing this on many levels (bouncing stems), really it takes the mystique out of the process and then people can dissect everything so much and mess with the creatives ideas. The AI also learns how to pull the stems and also how to compose, produce. The stems concept is useful for mixing but AI needs to leave the music industry for the musical side of things. They don't pay musicians but they dump all this money into AI to make music, so then you just pay the AI toll. Anyway I'll be sniffing around that tech to see how it compares to DeMix for audio source separation. Unfortunately the way tech works is a cool product comes down the pipeline, millions buy it, then the product eventually eats the industry all for itself and siphons the contractors market share. That's no fun.
It can be kind of discouraging to see - in industry after industry - people creating AI which puts other people out of business or out of a job. And it's odd - since music is so often an expression of an individual's thoughts/feelings/life experience/soul - to think that there are folks attempting to make original music using AI...
VERY INTERESTING, just submitted to you guys, I have a bunch of songs up that are extremely suitable for film credits/openings, game trailers %100 perfect and an album to come that's well underway, hope to hear back soon, very keen to get this rolling!! :)
So ridiculous its actually funny -- oh my , Self review Pr Advert for you to state a million great things about all the things you lot have do or want , Any chance of a factual kind of video next time instead of fiction n optimistic little short novel storys :)

It's so rare to get this kind of inside information. Especially the tips Jen gave about 30 minutes in. Thanks for the vid!
From a fellow Ari, I just wanted to take a moment to thank you for posting this. It feels like I'm talking to myself when I say, "Thank you Ari!"
Audio Socket takes 75% unless you’re exclusive with them. Then it’s 50/50 industry standard BUT if you’re exclusive then they’re gonna take 50% of your writers royalty. Geeezus!
Good to know. I'm just starting to get interested in Synch and want to get paid.
It really seems like you can't get a good deal, no matter who you deal with.
You sir, are another beautiful soul that has helped guide this journey i'm on! Thank you for what you do bro forreal!
Jenn Miller is my role model.
Thank you, Ari and Jenn, for a helpful conversation. You ask great questions, Ari, and Jenn was very forthcoming with her answers.

Thank you both. A lot of 💎's in this episode.
I'm reading your book rn and happened across your video, you're coming in clutch man.
Sounds like a good hustle... Everybody want to take a bite out off the artist..
Music is $$$$$$$... these companies are a trip!

Dope content!
I see the pricing option on their website but I do not see a way to submit music to audiosocket is there a way could you please help Ari?
Scroll down all the way on their homepage. On the left hand side, under MUSIC, you'll see a link to SUBMIT MUSIC
@@Dougthebeliever Thank man I will check that out. 🙂✌
If i have a clean version and an explict version of a song do i have to register both with pro?
this is really good info. just submitted some of my stuff to audiosocket! :)

Hello Eric my friend been a while, your New Orleans drummer for a day!
lots of good info, keep rockin' steady Ari !
Great content..I’m in the middle of joining a big Sync company so I’m just searching everything 😂😂😂
dope im trying to get placed
There are iPad apps that use Ai to ‘separate instruments’ in stereo tracks. Accuracy varies but verrryy interesting and s great tool.
Great, informative video. Thanks Ari.
thanks so much ari for the info👍😀
If I purchase an "Exclusive" beat license to create my music, will I still be able to get synch agreements?
To my u understanding yes, but depending on the license agreement the producer may have a songwriters share for composing the music
Very good information

Well nice but does that goes for any one or any body and how do we know it will really work out for us
Ari What are the name of the conventions where Music Supervisors and Agencies get together annually other than NAMM?
Hi. Great interview. Thanks. I have a question; is it a good idea to register tunes with a PRO before approaching companies like Audiosocket, or would they prefer to propose publishing deals themselves to secure back end payments?

Yes it matters. For a sync license the law requires clearance of the publishing (all co-writers) and the master.
@@ArisTake thank you.
Thank you Ari!! Luv u broy
