1. Legal certainty:
No producer can steal your loops. We can track which producers download your loops. If you have a placement, but no split and credits agreement has been made with you, you can take legal action against producers/artists with the support of ArtistConnect and claim your split + credits.
2. Straightforward split negotiations:
You make a profit share proposal to the producer (e.g. 50/50). The producer accepts the offer or makes you a counteroffer.
3. Simple credits agreement:
You make a suggestion to the producer about the credits. (e.g. credits in the description on Spotify & Youtube). The producer accepts the offer or makes you a counteroffer.
4. GEMA & expertise support:
As a Loop Maker, you can always contact our experts on the topics of GEMA, publishing, authors and similar. Send our team a message via ArtistConnect chat or an email to info@artistconnect.de.

You have the following responsibilities:
1. Give status updates to loops.
As a loop maker, you are required to continuously update the status of your uploaded loops. For example, if you have placed the loop outside the ArtistConnect platform, you should set the status of the loop to BLOCKED.
2. Use of the ArtistConnect platform.
To protect loop maker and Producer from cheating each other, please communicate only through our platform (even if a Producer writes to you via IG).

1. Exclusive loops:
As a producer, you will see if a loop has already been downloaded or picked by other producers.
2. Precise filter function:
Our filter and search function help you quickly & easily find the loops you need.

You have the following responsibilities:
1. Transfer of the beat fee.
As a producer you pay the loop maker 60% of his share of the beat fee. The remaining 40% you transfer to ArtistConnect. Example calculation: You have agreed on a 50/50 split with the loop maker and the artist pays 1.000€ for the beat. As a producer you transfer 300€ to loop maker and 200€ to ArtistConnect.
2. Give status updates to loops.
As a producer, you are required to continuously update the status of your downloaded loops. For example, if an artist has recorded a song with a loop, you should set the status of the loop to LOOP LOCKED.

ArtistConnect gets a share of the revenues of your placement as loop maker (analog publisher). That means, we participate with 40% of the GEMA income & beat fees of your placement. Only for the placement arranged by ArtistConnect! For all other placements you keep 100% of your GEMA income etc.
2. Independence:
ArtistConnect is a publishing company. However, we do not sign loop makers or producers. We want you to stay independent from us.
3. Publisher participation:
When you register your work with GEMA, you also enter our IPI. Then everything will be handled automatically.
4. Legal consequences:
If you are notified via IG by a Producer that they have downloaded and placed a loop, contact us immediately. If you do not do this, we will have to assume a fraudulent act and take legal action.
