Sound Archive - The Single User License

The use of a sound archive is dependent on the license agreement for the end user. This agreement comes into effect automatically upon purchase of the archive.

By purchasing a sound archive, only YOU will be granted the right to use the sounds for audio-visual productions. All rights to the original audio material remain with Avosound or with the rightful owner of the respective sound archive.

As a sound archive user, YOU will be granted the right to synchronise the sounds. In other words, YOU are authorised to mix and distribute original sound material with audio-visual content. As soon as the original sound material is mixed with other audio-visual material, the license agreement has been fulfilled.

YOU are under NO circumstances allowed to make the original sound material accessible to other people. YOU are not allowed to make the original sound material accessible to third parties on an audio server or to distribute the original sound material to other people in a production session.

If you do wish to make the sound material accessible to other people, you will need to buy a multi-user license. The multi-user license can be acquired by paying an annual fee or by making a one-time payment (buyout).

• TV, film and radio productions
