We love seeing our tracks used on YouTube! And usually the song’s publishers do too.
Please note, that all rights to the underlying composition belong to the composers and/or their publishers. We just own the copyright to our recording.
The publishers (who control the composition rights) can choose to remove your video, causing a strike to your channel, although this rarely happens these days. Simply follow these steps for using our tracks on YouTube.
You may receive a claim notification from our administrators “VISO Music”. This does not mean you’re in trouble and will not negatively affect your account standing, it’s just our claim of ownership.
Please note, that you may NOT:
If you received a copyright claim from VISO Music (on behalf of Sing2Music), it is simply a notice confirming that you have used our recording. It’s not a penalty or offense, as such. We and YouTube are happy for people to make covers using our tracks.
We currently have a blanket policy to monetise our user content across YouTube in lieu of a licence (which means you won’t be able to monetise).
We are hoping to release a licence or revenue share opportunity in the future for our users.
Rest assured that the claim does not negatively impact on your channel.
Please note that we do not control the rights to the composition (i.e. the melody/lyrics that you sing), this is controlled by the songwriters and their publishers, who may have a different policy to us.
In most cases, yes. Please carefully read the information and terms below.
We love seeing our recordings used for covers on Facebook/Instagram, TikTok & SoundCloud. We are happy to give permission on behalf of our copyrighted sound recording, for non-commercial uses on these platforms (you may NOT monetise your covers).
Please note, that all rights to the underlying composition belong to the composers and/or their publishers. We just own the copyright to our recording.
The publishers (who control the composition rights) have the right to remove your content and Facebook/Instagram, TikTok & SoundCloud have the right to close your account for breaches to their terms.
We shall not be responsible for any loss with respect to your Facebook/Instagram, TikTok & SoundCloud accounts, in connection to any of our backing tracks.
Twitch has strict guidelines regarding cover song performances on the platform. You should read and understand these guidelines before live streaming on Twitch.
According to these guidelines, cover songs may not appear on Twitch with the exception of a live performance in your Twitch stream. These cover song performances should only be performed without incorporating instrumental tracks. And finally, covers may not be used in on-demand content.
That being said, Twitch does allow you to use copyrighted music if you have secured a licence.
What does all this mean for using sing2music backing tracks on Twitch? We think it should be possible to use our backing tracks as long as you have the appropriate permissions. We are happy to give permission on behalf of our copyrighted sound recording, for non-commercial uses on Twitch.
Please note that while we own the rights to our sound recordings, we do not control the compositional rights (for the melody and lyrics) embedded in our backing tracks. These rights belong to the original songwriters and/or their publishers. Without their permission, you risk having the audio in your stream muted, or your content could receive a DMCA takedown.
Your cover should never be available as on-demand content or again, you could risk receiving a DMCA takedown from the song’s publishers.
We shall not be responsible for any loss with respect to your Twitch account, in connection to any of our backing tracks.
