Overview of Artist Plan

On August 15, 2023, SOUNDRAW introduced the new Artist Plan. Previously, our service was primarily designed for video and game creators who used SOUNDRAW's music tracks mainly as background music for their videos. However, in response to requests for more diverse applications, including adding one's own vocals or instruments to our tracks and distributing them as personal compositions, we have launched the Artist Plan.

In brief, the Artist Plan from SOUNDRAW is intended for those who wish to use our service for the following purposes

 

For cases where SOUNDRAW's music tracks are used as the primary content in musical projects :

Please be aware:

  1. Customizations available on SOUNDRAW, such as adjusting the length of the track or modifying its climaxes, do not qualify as modifying.

  2. Changes that are not clearly distinct from the original music will not be considered as a modification.

 

Prohibitions:

  • Registering with Content ID (prohibited under all plans; for reasons, please refer here).

  • Selling or distributing the music without modifications.

  • Selling SOUNDRAW's music on third-party licensing services like Audio Stock or BeatStars, regardless of whether the music is modified.

  • Under the Artist Plan, it is prohibited to use downloaded tracks as background music (BGM) for videos you do not own (Note: You may use the tracks as BGM for your own music videos or videos you own).
