How does it work for labels?
We reach out to the artists who, in turn, involve their rights holders. We have had many discussions with small and large labels, who have all supported our initiative and business model. Any questions have always been very quickly and positively answered.
What is important is that:
1. It is an option that you do not need to take. There is no cost if you don't.
2. We provide the full multitrack for a fee, but payment is only required after first having access to a preview mp3: you always know what you're paying for.
3. Nobody will ever be able to download the recording apart from the artist and their team (validated through Instagram login), and besides them only the venue has access to listen (but not download).
At any time, if the artist or their label prefers to make their own recording, then they can unplug us and plug in another recorder (but we don't see this happening - why would they? ).
They can also ask us not to record: we can schedule the recorder to be switched off on certain nights, but in reality, we have never been asked to do so.
We are happy to speak with any label with questions on this matter. Please reach out through email on artists@setmixer.com and we are happy to answer them.
