How to put your music on iTunes!! (TuneCore)

[mario1136]

I can't wait to get my music up. I can make money easily

[Pokyaz8]

@Blackmore350

Tunecore is not a scam

[Blackmore350]

@pinnaclestudio12 is tunecore a scam?

[blackopsgamer666]

how do you choose how much you want for the song and how do you get paid and is it $10 a year for only 1 song???????

[Blackmore350]

@pinnaclestudio12 does this actually? is it a scam?

[flab4abs]

is your song on yet?

and is it 9.99 a month

[PinnacleStudio12]

@flab4abs its a year, and my song was taken down since i had no use for it anymore

[flab4abs]

@PinnacleStudio12 thanks i put a song up and it worked (thumbs up for your vid)

[PrinterPaperraps]

is it 9.99 per month?

[PinnacleStudio12]

@PrinterPaperraps a year

[OfficialBassLock]

@PinnacleStudio12 UPC is a 12 digit barcode thing, and ISRC is a code which is linked with the audio in someway, its not that inmportant, thats why its sats optional (I Think)

[MsMarclar]

@OfficialBassLock ISRC codes are "an international standard code for uniquely identifying sound recordings and music video recordings". You can register a song to yourself/ an other artist using a site like PRS and you're given an ISRC code - the recording code helps track airplay back to the artist (I think!)

[KronyxMUSIC]

[BIGmouththegreat]

UPC / EAN CODES = barcode number ;) 

[smoshpryce]

[no1tomufc]

My dad earns 1,000 pounds + a month e works for manchester united :-)

[nathybasketball]

@no1tomufc thats nothing to do with this

[no1tomufc]

@nathybasketball i know but tune core is legendary so thnx for putting this vid up on tube but its not like theres a hobo that likez to do it

[MrDamnSHt]

I think Chris Crocker does this to sell his music because hes not with any label. Holy shit! Hes sold in the thousands of his songs. OMG! I knew it! Hes a YouTube partner and a music artist! Hes rich!

[dwaynearmz]

ISRC stands for international Standard Recording Code. It's pretty much like a barcode to track a single song. This is mandatory if you want your music played on the radio or any other format which will pay royalties. A UPC is an actual barcode which can be used to track an entire album. These are what Performance Rights organizations use to track sales and make sure that artists get paid for their music.

[ModsFreeAreForTV]

@ddeclan1 This is completely legal, as long as you dont use music from another artists or composers. Theres no way of doing it for free though.

[shoutatdaniel]

referring to copyrights. always copyright thru the gov office. Nothing else will hold up in court. I have family who work in this field of law and they always reiterate "do it officially". It will prob take a year to get your papers back but if you got the money then drop $700-800 dollars and the copyright office will get it to you in weeks.

[NOLOVESsOhgggg]

lame



[PinnacleStudio12]

@NOLOVESsOhgggg well it got me 20,000 views so idc.

[OfficialTyRaeMusic]

@PinnacleStudio12 LMAO Right

[iamDIBBS]

If Trent Reznor said its good... then it must be

[PinnacleStudio12]

@joshsvideogames idk

[merbz13]

The Universal Product Code (UPC) Each UPC-A barcode consists of a scannable strip of black bars and white spaces, above a sequence of 12 numerical digits. Its what they scan at stores to ring up something yo buy

[JustGeorgeTV]

How do podcasts work?

[Matthijs932]

Thanks



[RJRfilms2]

can u put in music content from a music making program?

[GuapBucket]

@RJRfilms2 dumb question...excersice common sense

[motboy2]

Hey guys, quick question. I make sampled hip hop beats, one day I wud love to upload an album to iTunes but I understand that I could potentially get sued for using another persons works. However big name artists sample all the time.. How do I do I donut legally? Thanks in advance for any helpful answers!

[PinnacleStudio12]

@motboy2 good questions, heres what you can do. i use loops all the time for my instrumentals i make, so if you get royalty free loops then you should be good. but if you have ever heard the song 'swagger like us', that is an example of something you wouldn't be allowed to do. if you take something out of someones song without permission from the artist (and make profit off it of course) that would be illegal. and most big artist can sample because its easy to get in contact with other artists.

[GuapBucket]

@PinnacleStudio12 get a sample clearance agent or ask for permission.  just do the fuckin footwork. dont listen to this clueless motboy

[PinnacleStudio12]

@BENJAHMIXROfficial no because you can't sell something someone else made

[JP3RAPS]

CHECKOUT MY FIRST SONG ON ITUNES CALLED "WAY BACK WHEN" WHICH I UPLOADED VIA TUNECORE BY SEARCHING JP3RAPS IN THE ITUNES STORE. THIS SITE WORK GREAT!!!

[goingLIGHTSPEED]

[Trentseph]

[IanBpa]

@Trentseph You have to pay money to make money my friend.

[PinnacleStudio12]

PENIS. thumbs up if you saw this.

[flaviogonzalez13]

bitch just get music from there haha

[AtomTiger3460]

UPC is the barcode used in the US, and the EAN is used in other countries. UPC basically means that you want that song to be a spesific number.

[MRAvlogs]

Thanks so much for posting. ^_^

You are very informative!

[coldbalistic]

upc is a bar code for that cd to track sales

[webkinzqueen1001]

[ThomasCooper21]

can you only put music on there from garage band or can it be from a different music software?

[malakaimom]

UPC code is for soundscan to track album sells for the billboard charts!

[TCchaser97]

did you record your song on garage band?

[PinnacleStudio12]

@TCchaser97 Yep!

[MusicMovieMan25]

Do you make money from your song if it is bought?

[Xxwwehd606158450Xx]

@MusicMovieMan25 some goes to him and apple. so maybe 50/50 probably.

[steveninsomnia]

Im quite surprised that you dont use RouteNote to do this

[praXsad12]

Hi there, I just wanted to know about copyrights? Does putting it up automatically copyright it? or do you have to do it through your local copyright office?

[KidDoom421]

@praXsad12 you have to have your own music copyrighted or else i can use it because it is not copyrighted

[PinnacleStudio12]

@KidDoom421 no you dont! that is completely illegal. anybody that makes anything 100% original owns the copyrights. thats like someone downloading my videos and uploading them for money...

[KidDoom421]

@PinnacleStudio12 having something copyrighted means that it is yours, go ahead and put up a song, and if i take it then take me to court then they will ask if it was copyrighted and they will say no and then it will be dropped because technically you don't own it. why do you think movies and albums are copyrighted through labels and companies, if we didn't need copyrights there would be no labels at all.... everyone would work by themselves

[PinnacleStudio12]

@KidDoom421 i get your point, but for this case im correct with video, music, etc. if i wasn't right wouldn't that defeat the purpose for all the youtube copyright claims for music and stolen video? an example of this is a feature we have here on youtube which is the flag button. if someone uploads my video i can report them and press a copyright claim. same idea if i used someones song and said it belonged to me.

[lasoreal]

@praXsad12 Its always good to do the actual copyright but u can do it online too

[praXsad12]

@lasoreal Thanks so much for the reply - would you know how to go about doing that online?

[lasoreal]

@praXsad12 This should do ya fine copyright (dot) gov Then look to the right and go to electronic copyright and create an account. Put in the info for your works and keep all your files. You probably already know but depending on what type there is a fee but one form can sometimes cover more than one work. Hope that helps

[praXsad12]

@lasoreal yes bro, thanks so much, God bless

[MrGrimstyles]

@praXsad12 you have to do it through copyright office

[moneyquickeasy]

@MrGrimstyles No you don't.

[GuapBucket]

@moneyquickeasy yes the fuck u do...you get out what u put in.  invest fool

[PinnacleStudio12]

@GuapBucket HORSE COCK

[moneyquickeasy]

@GuapBucket Invest? I thought we were talking about song copyrights

[GuapBucket]

@praXsad12 yea but if you ever had to go to court for legal issues its not what you can "proove" its what you can "proove on paper"

[youngmac38]

upc code is the bar code that you have to have to sell music on any website just google upc code for itunes read reviews and buy the range from 10-30 DOLLARS

[purrykitty100]

Hi I just want to know if you can you put a cover song on this. My name is Belle and I am 11 years old and would like to know because I sing cover songs :) Thank-you

[PinnacleStudio12]

@purrykitty100 Probably not. If a song belongs to someone else, and you try to make profit off it, then its copyright. 

[espnchris]

fuck i watched this vid to see what upc scan means .....lol

[PinnacleStudio12]

@espnchris lol sorry. i still don't know what it is!

[CHARLYNNE123]

[RoseMarie753]

[madmarty9]

How do you get your money? Does it deposit into your bank? I've seen a few people ask you that, but I haven't seen you reply to that question, unless I over looked it.

Thank you

[PinnacleStudio12]

@madmarty9 I'm not sure actually. I'm gonna say by check, but I'm not sure because my song has not sold.

[Hammie0With0A0Cammy]

have you made any money yet?

[PinnacleStudio12]

@Hammie0With0A0Cammy I'm not try to sell any music. I only put up a song so I can make this video.

[selenamarkmusic]

[rdc78]

UPC (universalproduct code) is a barcode, its for tracking trade items online or in shops .. you need it to sell your product.

[Humanumikey]

got a question for ya Pinnacle...I made an account with Tunecore, and I'm wondering, if I upload a song or album, will it just be on Itunes? Or will it automatically be on Rhapsody, Napster, etc ? or do those other sites cost more??

[PinnacleStudio12]

@Humanumikey Actaully no. You can put it on what ever site you want and all the sites are included in the $9.00 fee.

[MrLilteezy20]

[PinnacleStudio12]

[PinnacleStudio12]

@MrLilteezy20 I have no idea what you mean..

[jellystraws]

[PinnacleStudio12]

@jellystraws What ever program your using should let you export in to a .WAV file. Just change the file extension while exporting.

[WilliamBProductions]

How do you get the money?

[WilliamBProductions]

Do you get Paid?

[PinnacleStudio12]

@WilliamBProductions If someone buys your song.

[dandruffoxide]

[PinnacleStudio12]

@dandruffoxide I didn't.

[lucasbodie89]

how much money is it to download a song that i sell. like would it be $0.99 to download my song?

[PinnacleStudio12]

@lucasbodie89 It would sell for 0.99 cents.
