Syncphonix - A ground-breaking music synchronisation platform

21 March 2022 - Press release

SIMPLIFIED & ROYALTY-FREE ANNUAL SUBSCRIPTION MODEL WILL SAVE TIME AND MONEY

 

Music Supervisors across the world will welcome the launch of a ground-breaking new platform designed to simplify the way music is licensed and cleared for use in retail and live events, film, TV, gaming, web design, and music education across schools and universities.

Syncphonix is launched this month and will operate an annual subscription model, cutting out the laborious 'spot-buying' which involves music supervisors negotiating track-by-track with rights holders.

The UK based firm will offer tailored annual rates to each customer, based on what sector they occupy (film production, education, advertising, etc.) and the intended usage. Users will gain full access to the Syncphonix music catalogues, which contain thousands of the world's most popular classical hits by Mozart, Handel, Bach, Vivaldi, Tchaikovsky, Chopin and others. All the music is copyright and publishing cleared for worldwide use and registered at the US Library of Congress. Users will be able to create and tailor projects via the website app and download broadcast quality files in full, or in specially edited 30-second and 5-second stings.

Initially, Syncphonix will offer the best classical movements, expanding to all genres as it develops its application to include content from its parent company, One Media iP Group Plc (LON:OMIP), which owns and / or controls 250,000 tracks. A brokerage service for sourcing and clearing non-One Media owned music is also offered.

Michael Infante, CEO of One Media and MD of Syncphonix said:
"We have been in the synchronisation business since 2005 and the sector is crying out for an affordable, simple solution for clearing music for film, TV and other work, such as music projects in schools and universities. Agencies such as Shutterstock have shown how it can be done in the world of photography and image rights. Syncphonix will do the same for music." 

Debbie Tarrier, Head of Sales, Global Music Licensing at Syncphonix said:
"Syncphonix is the most user-friendly way of accessing music for commercial use. In addition to our base of clients in film and TV, we are also excited at the prospect of working with a wider range of clients, providing them with access to cleared music for multiple projects without expensive spot buying." 

Prior to Syncphonix, One Media operated its sync business under its Point Classics brand, which has placed music in American TV series including Dallas, Dynasty, Just Beyond (Disney), American science-fiction TV series 'Roswell, New Mexico' and Netflix TV Series 'On The Verge'. These clients will now transfer to Syncphonix.
