Cue Sheet - How to Proceed

[backtalkunlimited]

Dear Taxi Forum Members:Recently, I licensed my first musical arrangement for use as a background instrumental in a radio commercial. My understanding is that I should submit a "cue sheet" to my PRO (I'm registered with BMI) in order to ensure that I receive usage royalties. However, this is the first time that I've encountered a situation that requires cue sheets. I'm hoping that an experienced producer might be able to point me in the right direction. Are there some features that I should be aware of in particular when preparing/submitting a cue sheet? Any tips, suggestions, etc. that Forum members might be kind enough to provide shall be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for your help.Alan (backtalkunlimited)

I googled "BMI+cue sheet", and here you go...http://www.bmi.com/career/entry/533132A ... apparently they both have a way to file cue sheets on linehttp://www.bmi.com/news/entry/535323
