    Thanks so much! I was JUST thinking about this for the last 2 weeks! I'm working for a major network making cues for a new TV series in pre- production. They knew of a docudrama I scored and asked me to make some custom cues for the show and also I will be supervising all of the rest of the music going into the show. Your channel is helping a lot. Thanks again and have a Happy New Year! 🎉😘

    Using a melody loop, I would be more concerned that the Library or publisher heard the melody already.

    I looooove this video. I'm so happy that I decided that I wouldn't use any melodic loops or drums that I didn't create myself. I will use loops for inspiration or a few one shots for drums to give my snare a little more snap, but that's it. I'm semi-new to the production world and I approach it with an old-school idea of doing things so that I don't get caught up in any lawsuits or even worse UNEMPLOYED.That's so much Jesse for the breakdown.

    You can take snares out of loops, you can side-chain a compressor to a new snare which will essentially take the original snare out of the loop and replace it with a new one. Also in Ableton Live Suite you can take any melodic or percussion loop and turn it into MIDI in seconds. Now a days... anything is possible.

    I chop, screw, and rearrange loops I get from splice and other reputable sites. I wouldn't just throw a loop as it is in the track. You gotta make it your own. But sure seems something like this can get sticky in this business. Seems like if you can get midi files with loops would provide that flexibility needed if the library needed changes very quickly. Midi should be King right?

    • @SyncMyMusic
      @SyncMyMusic  5 років тому +2

      I would certainly recommend you stick MOSTLY with your own MIDI creations - it will just keep you out of trouble in the long-term.

    with drum loops; this happened to me years ago. I had a publisher ask me to lower the kick drum and there was no way that I could.
    I lowered the whole track, just a hair and got very lucky. From that point, I never used drum loops again; to create drums. It is so risky!! It really is so much better to build your own drums and have much more control.
    I never would have gotten away with this twice. Whether you feel that they are wrong or not, just give them what they want. 👍👍
    This is so true

      what kind of drum loops were you using that they weren't royalty free? I've only found it to be a problem in the pop music world when using things like amen breaks or other breaks from 70s tracks

    • @nokjutsu8834
      @nokjutsu8834 5 років тому +2

      That sounds like a close call. These days there are a lot more tools available too, like for that situation regroover could break out each instrument of the drum loop so you could mix/level them individually

    what about single hit drum samples? lifted from other band/artists works? i use a lot of drum samples cut from master track files off the "rock band" and "guitar hero" games.. you can download all the master track files and cut out drum samples from all the stems.. would you be in any trouble for using these? since they aren't loops and ultimately can't be identified in a mix as being from any other existing work..

      If you're taking samples from any tracks that don't explicitly allow you to use them for use in commercial projects, you're in jeopardy of copyright infringement.

    Chill. Go back and do a deep dive into how many people redid an original in their own style. Skip to the 60s and figure out how many musicians(bands) stole old style music. Stones, Beatles? Now, review how many lawsuits are happening because of exact beats and chords copyrights! It's become common for many artists to steal a song, then pay the original composer a royalty or fee or lawsuit....because it's easier to get a hit song. It simply becomes an 'expense', known before the song comes out. Unless it's not found out and then all profits go to the cheater. Worth the risk? Must be! So, in short, Fck Off about your loop problem. Do what you do and love it! Millions would love to hear what you can hear and use it to make others happy.

    • @ilikemyrealname

      The point is to not piss off the libraries, which can hurt your success with them...and in general. For artists, I can see your point, but for sync licensing you want to keep things running smoothly for the library. It's not about making whatever you want musically but rather doing what is necessary to grow your sync career while doing what you love. There are so many guidelines to follow for sync licensing that using properly vetted samples should be the least of anyone's holdups.

    Hi Jesse, first of all, thank you for yet another great, informative video.
    When I'm composing I use Cakewalk Producer and Sibelius. Am I allowed to use the sounds that are supplied with these commercially. I usually create my own loops, but using the samples supplied with Cakewalk and Sibelius.
