Reminder: Any sections that are not original (e.g., licensed songs from our vendor) you may hear in other routines.

Edits

An edit is any modification to the original composition. Edits include changes to in-house voice overs and/or sound effects adjustments. Each mix order will receive one round of free edits. All subsequent edits will incur a fee of $75.

Song Selection

In order to comply with US Federal Copyright law as well as the USA Cheer music rules, 

we will be requiring each client to choose songs from our vendor www.songsforcheer.com. In order to submit your songs you will visit your account and click on a particular order. From there, you will see a button labelled “song selection”. Please fill out the form and submit. Please make sure to include the song title, artist and section of the routine you’d like each to be placed. The appropriate amount of songs to submit per mix length can be found in APPENDIX A

Note: If you wish to license a song from another platform, you will be responsible for procuring the song(s) and sending the mp3(s) to us via email (info@ippmusic.com).

Licensing

Re-Licensing

We will be offering re-licensing on both custom and premade mixes. Re-license for a custom mix will be $300. Mix can be used “as-is”. Meaning, no edits will be made. If you would like edits there will be a $75-hr fee. If custom raps need to be edited it will then be priced on a case-by-case basis. Premade re-licensing will be the cost of the base mix and can be used “as-is”. If additional edits need to be made then you can select the “edit” add-on at check out.

Premade Mixes

These mixes will be available for purchase on our website. You may choose to further customize your selection by adding sound effects, team specific voice overs, song swaps and/or edits to name a few.  For example, selecting the “split mix” add-on will allow you to have the mix split into 2 different music sections. Overall, we have revamped our add-on structure for more user flexibility.  See ippmusic.com/premade-mix-shop for more details.  For help regarding your premade purchases or general premade mix questions you can use our live chat feature on the website or email ippuserhelp@gmail.com.

Note:

• Turn-around-time for premade mixes needing customizations will be 2 weeks from when we receive all necessary information.  
• Rush delivery is available. 
• Song swaps available from other IPP premade mixes.  For help regarding your premade purchases or general premade mix questions you can use our live chat feature on the website or email ippuserhelp@gmail.com.

Payment

Refunds/Cancellations

If you are not satisfied with your music you will have 48 hours from when you received your final mix to request a refund. You will receive a refund on the balance paid at time of receiving the final mix – minus any expenses incurred by IPP (e.g., third party vocals). At that time your license will be terminated.. Our participating event producers will be made aware and void that team’s specific license. A refund will not be issued if we attempt to rectify the situation immediately and within a timely manner or if IPP did not receive the information necessary to do our job efficiently (e.g., team specific information, proper count sheets & video and etc.). Furthermore, failure to comply with IPP policies and procedures will disqualify any client from receiving a refund. 

If you cancel your mix prior to your mix date then no refund will be issued as deposits are non-refundable. If you pay in-full at the time of booking then you will receive a refund in the amount of 50% of the total balance. Cancellations require a 30 day notification. If there is no notification given then no refunds will be granted regardless of amount paid at that time. 

Dance Mixes for Choreography

We strongly recommend that instead of dance cuts, you have your choreography performed/created to a song similar to something from one of our vendors or to a radio song of which we can then create something similar in sound/style. No dance cut will be created for full custom or semi-custom mixes. You may have your choreographer contact us for further help/insight.  Cut off for dance cut requests is 8/1

Delivery

You will receive your custom mix within 24-72 hours of your mix date that is agreed upon at the time of booking. For example, if your mix date is Monday then you will receive your mix by Tuesday (providing that all necessary information – counts, songs and etc were submitted). If your mix is scheduled on a Friday then you will receive it on Monday (providing that all necessary information – counts, songs and etc were submitted) . All mixes will be delivered via your account (visit the DOWNLOADS section of your account) as well as via an automated email with the customized mix(es) attached
