Hi there!
My PRO pays both performance and synchronizing royalties. I noticed that I got small synchronizing payment for a track in Catfish that I haven't got any performance royalties though. If I got it correct synchronizing fee is paid if TV-show is saved in a physical format such DVD etc...
Is it normal that some synchronizing fee can be paid by PRO before perfomance royalties for the same track is paid? Or is it possible that only sync fee would be paid but not performance royalties.. hardly? Hoping to see some performance royalties also for that track.
As side note: It was pleasure to see finally also the name of the TV-show that used my music. Besides Catfish I got small sync fee also from the show "Are you the One?". But performance royalties seems to be in total different league compared to these synch fees.
I got synchronizing payment but not performance royalty, normal?

Hi arska,
Yes... it is very common for a sync fee to be paid before royalties.
The sync fee is usually paid directly to you from the publisher...or library, after they receive it from the user.
And depending on each publisher or libraries policies, is when they will give you
your share of the sync fee.
The royalties can take 6 to 9 months to get deposited to your PRO.
My 6 to 9 cents worth,
Tim

Okey appreciate for your reply, thanks!
So sync fees and royalties can be basically paid with totally indepnedent schedules, fine.
Yes, I've noticed I''m still getting performance royalties from Q1 and Q1 of 2017 =) As its takes even longer because ASCAP etc will pay to my local PRO which then pays for me.
