The Commercial License covers the use of our music and SFX in e-learning courses, online videos, and monetized content.

Can I share your music on my YouTube soundtrack channel?

Unfortunately, we don’t permit our music to be used in audio-only projects (even with a still image as the video background) or in videos featuring stock images/footage where our music takes center stage.

What if I need a custom license for a large-scale project?

If you’re working on a large-scale project or have specific needs beyond our standard licenses, we offer Enterprise solutions. Contact our Sales Team to discuss a custom agreement tailored to your needs.

Can I include the music & SFX in my trade show or exhibition video?

You bet! With Audiodrome’s Business license, you’re covered to use our assets in your videos displayed at trade shows or exhibitions. However, our license doesn’t allow for audio-only playback at live events. Since this falls under public performance, it’s a good idea to check with the event organizer to learn more about using the music in that setting.

Can I download and store the music tracks for future use?

Yes, once you’ve purchased a license, you can download and store the music tracks for future use in multiple projects. Your license covers lifetime use for all assets downloaded during your subscription.

Can I use the music for adult-only content?

Our license doesn’t cover the use of our assets in pornography or excessively violent content. Audiodrome’s terms for proper use are designed for content that could be shown in public theaters or on broadcast networks accessible to general audiences. In other words, if your film would get a rating from G to R, you’re good to go! But if it would receive an NC-17 rating, our license won’t cover that.

Can schools or universities use the license?

We don’t currently offer a license that covers both a school and its students under one plan. Each license is meant for a single user. However, if you’re looking for a plan to cover your school and students, feel free to reach out to our sales team for more information.

If a school subscribes to an individual Audiodrome plan, it provides coverage for one person’s projects created by and for the school. Personal projects won’t be covered.

With a Business plan, students can create projects for the school, but personal projects still won’t be covered. The school is responsible for ensuring there are no copyright violations.

Can Audiodrome’s license cover me if I’m hired by a business for a project?

With our Business plan, you’re covered for client projects!

The Business license allows you to use Music & SFX in videos on any platform worldwide, including commercial projects. Your clients can monetize the video on their channels, and your license for use will never expire.

The Business plan includes all tracks from the music compilation with unlimited use, ensuring your clients are covered for the projects you’re hired to create.

Please note that Personal & Commercial licenses only cover personal projects shared on your own channels, but you can monetize your channel.

Can I use assets for purposes other than video?

Audiodrome’s license specifically covers the use of assets in projects mentioned in our license agreement. Since Audiodrome is designed for video marketing, assets can’t be used as standalone (audio-only) or without being part of a video or podcast.

That means you’re not allowed to use, record, perform, present, publicly play, copy, distribute, transfer, share, sell, or license the assets as standalone items in any way.

Can I post Audiodrome’s music by itself on my channel?

Our licenses don’t cover using our music or uploading videos with our music solely for listening purposes. Audiodrome’s music is meant to enhance your stories in video or podcast projects, not to be made available on its own.

Stand-alone uploads include complete or nearly complete tracks paired with a still image (e.g. artist and track name) or simple animations, part of a compilation video, or any use where the visuals or narratives are of secondary importance. Online radio usage also violates our terms and is considered stand-alone. As a result, we reserve the right to monetize any videos on YouTube or other platforms that feature stand-alone use of our music.

Can I use Audiodrome music for telephone hold music?

Sorry, but telephone-hold music isn’t covered by our license. Audiodrome is designed specifically for video creators. Our music can’t be used as a standalone audio without being part of a video. This means it’s not allowed to use, record, perform, present, publicly perform, copy, distribute, transfer, share, sell, or license the music on its own.

Can I have exclusive rights to the songs I download?

Unfortunately, no. All the songs in our catalog are available for every user on an equal basis. We don’t offer exclusive rights to any song. We’re all about creative freedom, so our license is non-exclusive, allowing any asset you use to be accessible and used by other creators as well. If you have a big project and our Commercial license doesn’t meet all your requirements, feel free to reach out to our sales team to discuss a custom solution.

Can I use the assets in my app?

Our Personal & Commercial licenses don’t cover using Audiodrome music in an app. However, the Business plan might be just what you need! With it, you can:

  1. Develop an app that offers assets to your end users
  2. Design an app that incorporates Audiodrome assets within the user experience
  3. Create an app that includes videos featuring Audiodrome assets (videos in-app)

Please note that playlists or music players aren’t covered by any of our license agreements.

Which plan do I need to use Audiodrome assets in my game?

Audiodrome is designed with video creators in mind. To use our assets in your game, you’ll need the Business plan.

Which license should I pick to use Audiodrome music in my audiobook?

The Commercial license might just be the perfect fit for your needs!

Which license should I choose to include Audiodrome music in my product?

Claims

Why did you get the claim?

Since my music is copyrighted, YouTube’s digital fingerprinting system, Content ID system, is informing you that your video contains copyrighted material.

What should I do if I receive a copyright claim on YouTube?

We sincerely apologize if you experience this issue. Rest assured, all our music is 100% copyright-clear, and using it with your purchased license is perfectly legal.

Unfortunately, false or mistaken copyright claims are common on YouTube. If you receive one, follow these steps to resolve it:

  1. Contest the Claim:
    Don’t panic! There’s no need to remove your video or replace the music. YouTube won’t ban or penalize you. The copyright notification will eventually be dropped (it may take a few hours to several days). If monetization is activated on your video, any lost revenue will be restored from the day you contested the claim.
  2. Submit a Counter-Notification:
    When YouTube asks for a reason, select “I have permission or a license to use the content claimed in my video”.
    • If you used our free music with credit, provide the download page link.
    • If you purchased a license, include your license certificate number and a link to the music page.
  3. Step-by-Step Guide:
    • In YouTube Studio, locate the video and select Copyright Claim (in the “Restrictions” column).
    • Click See Details.
    • In the pop-up window, under Actions, click Select Actions and choose Dispute.
    • Check the box that says “My dispute isn’t based on any reasons above…” and continue.
    • Select “License: I have permission or license to use the content claimed in my video”.
    • In the box, include the following:
      • “I used music from audiodrome.net with a purchased license. My license certificate number is [insert your certificate number], and the music I used is [insert music page link].”
  4. If You Haven’t Received a Claim Yet:
    Send us the video link and your order number (found in your purchase confirmation email). We can whitelist your video in YouTube’s system, typically on the same day.

Please note that Audiodrome music cannot be uploaded to YouTube’s Content ID system. Doing so may cause copyright issues for others and violates our licensing terms.

If you have any questions or need further assistance, feel free to contact us!

  2. Locate the Copyright Claim: Under Reports About Others, find the copyright claim related to your video.

How to Dispute/Clear Copyright Claims with Facebook (Meta) and Instagram?

When you purchase files from Audiodrome, you are granted a Royalty-Free License that allows for worldwide, perpetual use across all media platforms, including TikTok. However, TikTok currently doesn’t have a system for proactively providing your license before uploading your video. If you receive a copyright claim, follow these steps to dispute it:

Step-by-Step Guide to Dispute a Copyright Claim on TikTok:

Receive a Copyright Claim:
If TikTok raises a claim on your video, don’t worry. Since you have full rights to use the content, you can file a dispute.

Submit a Counter-Claim:
TikTok offers a Counter-Notification Form for you to challenge the claim. Here’s what to do:

  • Fill out the form with all the required information.
  • Under the section “Evidence to substantiate your appeal or counter-claim”, provide a copy of your Audiodrome license certificate.
  • Include a link to the music used in your video and clearly state that you have full rights to the track under Audiodrome’s royalty-free license.

European Union Users:
If you’re in the EU, you can also use copyrighted material under specific exceptions such as criticism, review, or parody, as long as it adheres to TikTok’s Community Guidelines. When submitting your counter-claim, you must still provide your Audiodrome license as proof of rights.

Resolution:
Once submitted, TikTok will review your dispute. In most cases, since you have proper rights to the content, the claim will be removed.
