21. MECHANICAL ROYALTY
mechanical right to print/ reproduce; to be paid to the songwriter
Mechanical royalty is a royalty payment to a songwriter/songwriter when their song is copied for
reuse. This royalty is owned by the copyright holder of the song as soon as the song is recorded
and distributed to the public. For example in the form of;
CD or vinyl
22. MECHANICAL ROYALTY
What are mechanical royalties?
When your composition is recreated in a “mechanical” format, that generates
a corresponding mechanical royalty. The term originated when physical
media was the only way people bought music, so each reproduction of a
composition on vinyl, tape or CD generated a mechanical royalty.
Since the advent of digital media, mechanical royalties have expanded to
digital sales and streams. Whenever your composition is downloaded from a
service like iTunes or played via an interactive streaming service like Apple
Music or Spotify, you are owed a mechanical royalty.
Mechanical royalties are also generated by artists recording their own
version of your composition. If someone wants to record a song you wrote,
they must pay the current mechanical rate in the U.S., which is 9.1 cents per
copy (what they are expecting to sell). These mechanical royalties are paid to
a mechanical agency.
23. MECHANICAL ROYALTY
Each time a purchase transaction is made, mechanical royalty will continue to be channeled to the
copyright owner of the song. Depending on the agreement that has been agreed and can be
divided into several individuals such as:
Singer/ band
Recording/ label companies
Publishing songwriter
Publishing lyricist/ senikata
24. MECHANICAL ROYALTY
Who needs to pay this mechanical royalty?
MANUFACTURER. Mechanical royalty is paid by those who have been given permission and have a
license to re -record, duplicate and produce the song.
25. MECHANICAL ROYALTY
How do you know this mechanical royalty?
If you are under a ‘publishing house’, all ‘mechanical royalty’ quotes will be channeled through the
publisher. Then it is distributed to you.
Most songwriters or lyricists are mistaken in thinking that this ‘mechanical royalty’ will be collected
and distributed by being a member of a collection body (e.g. MACP, ASCAP or SESAC). This
collection body only collects and maintains the rights of ‘performance royalties’ when the song is
broadcast on radio & TV.
Here it is good if you are under a 'publishing house'. You don’t have to worry about chasing your
royalties. For a small charge, they will do all the paperwork carefully and when enough time all
your royalty collections will be distributed (if any)
26. SYNC LICENSING
What is sync licensing?
Sync licensing is the placement of music in other media, like a TV show, movie or
advertisement. The “sync” part comes from the synchronization of music to the
moving images. When a song you wrote is licensed for placement in other
media, you are owed sync royalties.
There are two types of royalties earned for this placement:
The upfront placement fee: This is paid by the production company for the
placement of your song and is only paid once.
The sync royalties: Whenever media that contains your song is played, it
generates a performance royalty. The TV network tracks those plays and files a
cue sheet to report the play to your PRO, who then pay you the royalties.
27.
28. What is a performing rights organization (PRO)?
A performing rights organization, also known as a PRO, is an agency whose job is to monitor radio
airplay and live performances. They then pay royalties to the songwriters and publishers who
claim ownership to the songs. PROs charge a blanket licensing fee for radio stations, venues and even
restaurants for the rights to host performances of the songs in the PROs’ catalog. This fee is scaled to
the size of the station or venue; the larger it is the more they pay the PRO. The PROs use that money
to pay songwriters and publishers.
If you’re touring or playing a few shows locally, it’s always a good idea to register your setlist with
your PRO. That’s performance revenue waiting for you, and all you need to do is enter some quick
data.
30. Every ORIGINAL song that has been
marketed will be protected by the
RECORDING COMPANY or LABEL. This
we call RECORDING RIGHTS. All
recordings are the full property of

Macam mana nak tahu mechanical royalty ni?
Jika anda bernaung dibawah ‘publishing house’, semua kutipan ‘mechanical royalty’ akan disalurkan melalui publisher. Kemudian barulah diagihkan kepada anda.
Kebanyakan penulis lagu atau lirik keliru dengan beranggapan ‘mechanical royalty’ ini akan dikutip dan diagihkan dengan menjadi ahli badan kutipan (contohanya seperti MACP, ASCAP atau SESAC). Badan kutipan ini hanya mengutip dan menjaga hak ‘performance royalties’ apabila lagu tersebut disiarkan di radio & TV.
Disini untungnya jika anda bernaung dibawah sebuah ‘publishing house’. Anda tidak perlu risau untuk mengejar royalti anda. Dengan sidikit caj, mereka akan lakukan semuanya kertaskerja dengan teliti dan apabila cukup masa semua kutipan royalti anda akan diagihkan (jika ada)

Jingles
Kali pertama saya menjalankan karya untuk pengkomersilan, saya hanya dibayar sebanyak RM200 sahaja bagi klip audio berdurasi 1minit. Saya tidak pernah mendaftarkannya dan saya tidak menyimpan file berkaitan.
Harga kebiasaan bagi satu klip audio berdurasi 30saat – 1minit adalah sekitar RM8,000 sehingga RM16,000 .
Kenapa mahal?
You not only composing music, you create advertisement!! Ianya akan jadi awareness for brand. Jingles always catchy/impact dan akan membuatkan orang terngiang-ngiang dalam kepala. Mouth-mouth advertising.
