When editing to impress, you'll need quality music, and if your studio happens to lack a sound mixer or a personal composer, PremiumBeat is a helpful place to turn for stock music. More than just stock music, though, PremiumBeat.com contains a wealth of features that can help with your whole post-production workflow!
Here at Creative COW, we've covered the set-up and navigation techniques for getting started with PremiumBeat's sizable library, along with practical features such as Shorts, Loops, and Stems . The following are additional tips and tricks to help you get the most out of PremiumBeat.
Delve Into Individual Artist's Libraries When cruising through PremiumBeat search results, you may find that a song is close to hitting the mark, but not quite hitting the bulls-eye. Don't click away! The artist who made the track that comes closest to your goal has a style that has likely manifested more fitting music tracks that could fit right into your project.

When you identify an artist with that special sound, click on the artist's name to find a list of everything that artist has created. You'll be more likely to discover a winning track this way than listening to every result from your search through PremiumBeat's main library.
Find PRO-Free Music A Performance Rights Organization, or PRO, is a company that manages royalties to music creators. To use PremiumBeat's stock music in television, on the radio, and in film, you would need to ensure that you've filled out a cue sheet to every PRO associated with your artist of choice, along with the music publisher. This is easily done by following PremiumBeat's music reporting guidelines.
However, if you or your company is not prepared for PRO reporting, PremiumBeat offers a great assortment of PRO-free music to choose from.
Employ all of your favorite search techniques to look through the nearly 3000 PRO-free selections, including the use of all filters.
Establish an Audio Logo for Your Brand Whether you are creating a podcast, establishing a YouTube channel, or making commercials, audio logos will make your brand memorable to your audience by cuing the public ear associate that a specific sound is associated with your company.
An audio logo is a short music track that is used consistently in each video you publish. This signature piece of music usually opens the start of each video, but can be used at the end of the video too, or both. The short musical riff should have a style that reflects the general mood of your product, and eventually listeners won't even have to look at your videos to know that your company is presenting them information. Audio logos are a way to build a sense of connection with an audience, and have been proven to be very effective.
PremiumBeat offers a library with hundreds of stock tracks that are intended specifically to be great audio logos. Most of these tracks will include PremiumBeat's signature loops and stems, so you will be able to tweak, change, and perfect an audio logo into a unique sound that will represent you wherever your videos play.
Tap Into PremiumBeat's Blog PremiumBeat maintains a blog, The Beat, that is overflowing with resources for all video editors, reaching far beyond just music!
Included in The Beat are, of course, articles that cover PremiumBeat's talented musical artists. You will also find articles around audio editing, which includes tips on software like Avid Pro Tools, Apple Logic, and Adobe Audition.
What you may be surprised to find are thousands of articles that cover nearly everything else in the digital video editing industry. The Beat boasts hundreds of Adobe After Effects written tutorials, DaVinci Resolve discussions, Cinema 4D animation write-ups, filmmaking techniques, video gear reviews, photography, and much more.
These blog entries often include embedded video tutorials as well, and are frequently shared by fledgling editors as well as professionals around the internet.
