Licensing

What you get, and what you are allowed to do with it. This page covers the general shape of every engagement. Anything specific to your project is written into the agreement for that project.

Ownership of the recording

You own your masters. Work carried out here is work for hire on your material: the recordings, the performances you commissioned, and the final files are yours. Specific terms — including any split on material written to order — are set per project. [TBD — client]

What is delivered

Deliverables are agreed before work starts and listed in writing. The exact set per service is being confirmed. [TBD — client]

Commissioned original material

Where a piece, a beat or a part is written to order rather than recorded from your material, authorship and licence type are agreed in advance, in writing, before any work begins. Licence types offered: [TBD — client]

Use of your work as a reference

Nothing from your session is published, played publicly, or used as a portfolio example without your written permission — including audio excerpts, photographs taken during the session, and your name as a credit. Permission for one use is not permission for another.

Session files and archiving

Raw session files are retained so that revisions remain possible. Retention period and whether raw multitracks are delivered on request: [TBD — client]

Revisions

The revision policy is stated per service before work starts, so that both sides know what is included. [TBD — client]

Payment

Terms, deposits and schedule are agreed per project and stated in the engagement. [TBD — client]
