SUBMITTING MUSIC CUE SHEETS
Producers are required to submit music cue sheets as part of their Program Deliverables. Once a cue sheet is approved by Discovery, it will be considered “delivered” and flagged to be filed with the performing rights societies automatically upon the first airing of the program. Discovery files all music cue sheets with the U.S. and international performance societies regularly.
Soundmouse:
- For programs originated by Discovery Networks, music cue sheets must be submitted electronically via the Soundmouse application.
- Music Cue Sheets should be submitted at the same time the Program Master is sent to DCL for QC. Note:Please ONLY upload ‘Approved’ cue sheets to the Producer’s Portal website.
- To register for Soundmouse, go to soundmouse.comand click on “New User”. Once you are registered, cue sheet headers for the Discovery programs you are working on will be available to you in your Soundmouse workspace.
- Please familiarize yourself with the detailed “Soundmouse-Instructions” and/or “Soundmouse-Extensive-Help-Guide” document located above. You can also find this document on the Soundmouse website.
*** For Acquisitions and license deals, please refer to your DCL Program Materials exhibit for music cue sheet filing instructions.
