That's why midi progressions are better than straight already using somebody else's loop they made that you don't own cause with midi progressions you can use your own instrument of choice, you can change the sound and pitch of the melody, plus you can change the tempo/bpm and you can also edit and change around to add new notes or keys to that melody between a already made loop where all you can do with that to make it your own is chop it up, pitch it down or slow down the tempo/bpm of the loop so that your not straight copy and pasting it to your beat from their loop simple!
For those who are watching right now - we introduced a new and easy way to track artists and content creators who trying to get away with stealing and it's possible to add your beats into the Content ID system to monetize content with your beats on socials and submitting a claim without any need to go somewhere else
long story short don't claim any work you dont own.ya'll should keep in mind that the exact sample you are using on your beat is being used from 10.000 other producers worldwide.
What I don’t understand is when splice advertise loops that are supposed to be royalty free and we place it In a beat, then we get hit with claims on Facebook or get muted just makes no sense to me .. cause now the way I see it it’s not royalty free
Hey! So, i content id my beats. Great. But i have the same question that pitecomusic had. If i content id my beats, the content id will claim, i mean, will advise me: "Hey, this guy is using your beat", and then, i decide what to do. If claim the video or whitelist the channel. Perfect. But, lets supose that the person who is using my beat does'nt have any license. If that person monetize and i let him "monetize", that money will came to me? Cuz, it will be great if i let the non-licensed people use my beats for free, for promotion, and then if they monetize, all the money come to me. And if the guy wants to monetize, i'll say him: "Buy a license". Is this like it works?
Hey, I've been making beats for at least 2 years now but I've never posted them and I'm thinking about posting a beat. Any advice? How much should I sell a beat for and licenses? Do they pay first and I send the beat?
I thinkwe.should understand the difference beetween an free royalties sample/loop and free royalty sounds (oneshot).....because audio loop/samples are made even with single sounds.....
@@stuart1759 Thanks for the reply! I meant if someone played a composition on the piano (I was originally referring to royalty free loops but for the the sake of education take any loop) and I chop that loop note by note or two notes at a time, come up with an entirely different melody and then add drums after. Would I either be able to own the new chopped composition or even the new loop with drums added? Sorry if I came off with the shield up, too many trolls out here lol
@@BAK315 I don't know much but I don't think copyright claims are only for chord progressions. It's the sound itself. There are tools that detect Meta data of sounds so when u license a loop or beat u get that registered in the system. Anyone who uses it could be determined. Watch how Shazam works even befre a song plays half-way it's able to detect title, source, etc quite similar to that algorithm.
I understand why you shouldn't use content id on beats containing royalty free loops/samples. But if you make a beat from scratch (not using free royalty loops but really 100% original content), put content id on it and sell it with a non exclusive license to an artist, is that a problem? In this case the artist gets a claim by my content id but I can whitelist the artist can I? If the contract says the artist is allowed up to 10000 views, I just need to check it until it reaches that point and eventuelly blacklist the artist if he/she doesn't want to buy a new license. Or am I missing something?
@@wegotthatHEATE thx for the reply man! So what about if the artist gets a content id claim, I can whitelist him, can I? And what service do you recommend to put content id on your beats if your channel hasn't reached 1000 subs and 4k watching hours yet? Up until now I stumbled upon identifyy but I know cd baby and distrokid offers it as wel. Any other suggestions?
@@wegotthatHEATE ok and do you think it's necessary to register your beats on a pro first before uploading them on beatstars? Some say it has no point as it's not a finished song yet but others say you better do it as the artist can link your beat afterwards. What's your idea about this?
@@pitecomusicHey i know this was three years ago but im unable to see his comment, im looking to answer the same questions you have here do you think you can help me out?
So if I were to sell a beat using a drum kit I am allowed to use royalty-free, am I allowed to make the beat exclusive under the premise that all of the melodies etc. are owned and made by me? Example: I have a hi-hat Im allowed to use but didn't make myself.
Hey man, I watch your videos a lot and I’ve got a question: how can I take down music video autogenerated for RUclips by distributor even if the person has purchased the license but is getting all the monetization of the beat?
Hello, I published my music Naferin a few months ago even I made the beat by myself and I published it on my beat youtube channel, but someone stole my music and distributed it through TuneCore company, and also copyrighted it to my beat RUclips channel. Please help me what should i do

I got a good question but when we manipulate the audio sample .....for example we change the octave +or- 1/3 tones...add maybe if we had over it few diffetent notes of the same instrument or maybe some bass line....then the manipulate audio sample/loop....can be owned exclusively by us?....like most of the famous song in the music industry are made from sometimes old song/hits.....so in conclusion web should pay more attention about local or even better world Wide Companies that offer copyright service?
@@wegotthatHEATE yeah everybody uses it... so i was trying to mean that most of the people make beats from soundtrap so if i request youtube for content id with my beat which i made from soundtrap will yt approve?
Then how to make exclusive original beats?? Does using midi keyboard and making beats with logic by using pre installed piano sounds etc will be a valid method?? Kindly reply.
If anyone knows the answer to this question can you let me know? ⬇️ If I made a beat using a loop pack from bandlab, uploaded and instrumental and someone else used it how would I go about the situation? No I don’t own the loops but I used them to create a beat and don’t want anyone else taking that specific beat
You would still wanna content ID claim that honestly...don't let someone steal your beat and get away with it. If you made the beat first and uploaded it first too you own the copyright for the main beat. You used a loop so it might not hold up in court or whatever but a claim will take down the song they made with your beat or even their whole catalog. Good luck and try to compose your own melodies in the long run so you own every part of your beat...although it doesn't matter rn but it'll make life as a producer easier in the long run
Samples and loops are lazy production “cheats or hacks” for those that don’t care about quality… some of the biggest producers in the world use samples and the beats are never close to as good as an original from the same producer
This is why you should NEVER call yourself a producer if you don’t create from scratch… loops and samples are the sign of s “BeatMaker” not a producer… if you use those and call yourself a producer then you either don’t know what a REAL producer does or you just assume that because you make beats that makes you a producer… it doesn’t…
Well technically, even if you create a beat from scratch you’d still be labeled as a beatmaker. Knowing how to mix, master, record, and put a song together makes you a producer. Purely making beats will always label you as a beatmaker.

That's why I always chop the melody to fit my preference
Facts!
W sauce ❤
How about using free presets like cymatics, 808, claps, kick etc on your production?
That's fine!

What about apple loops inside Logic pro?
Or stock loops and sampled in any DAW
what if the loops and/or samples used are royalty free or at least manipulated in some way? would that be considered exclusive?
The answer is yes, it is legal to publish songs made in Garageband. Apple provides the loops and samples royalty-free.
What about Bandlab?
As a beat maker, how would I copyright a beat that contains a sample?
I personally wouldn’t copy right a beat with a sample within it, remaking the sample is a better idea to copy right your beat
@@kaynobeats1937what if it’s a vocal sample ( artist singing )
*Do drumkits sounds (kick, snare, etc.) can cause issues the same way loops do with Content ID???*
Nah just loops
I think
No, drums cant be copyrighted otherwise no one would make music, the same kicks & snares have been used for the past 10 years lmao
@@yeeyeekaree1107 pierre is the typa mf to sue u for using his sounds tho

Ok so what about GarageBand loops? But that goes back to where you said everyone has access to use those loops so you can’t content ID it right?
How do i content ID my beats ?
Hey nice video! I was wondering what if you chop a loop to make another loop could you own the rights to the new loop? It would be a different melody
Are beats a melody ?
@@stuart1759 Why are you asking me?
I wondered if your loop you mention would have a melody in it or just beats ie drum beats

What about old samples? Like old jazz stuff i flipped? I guess not
How would you know if a producer whitelist your video?
Great video!!!
Wait man, here's the thing. What if I sold the same beat to many artists on a non-exclusive beat, shouldn't I use content Id on RUclips, right?
So if I were to sell a beat using a drum kit I am allowed to use royalty-free, am I allowed to make the beat exclusive under the premise that all of the melodies etc. are owned and made by me? Example: I have a hi-hat Im allowed to use but didn't make myself.
yeah with drums its pretty much a completely grey area, no one can own a snare like a true composition of a melody
Hey man, I watch your videos a lot and I’ve got a question: how can I take down music video autogenerated for RUclips by distributor even if the person has purchased the license but is getting all the monetization of the beat?
what if i buy the beats from someone and they give me all the rights?
They will whitelist you
Can i use content id if i use presetd to create my original melodys??
So if we use samples from let’s say, GarageBand, then we shouldn’t get the content ID?

hello friend are you still in exmge? how is your experience with them?

Ok u still haven’t told us how to exclusively own and copyright the beats. Or how to use content ID to copyrights he beats.... moving on
