Is music in Adobe Rush and Premiere Pro royalty free

[alizarin_c]

Hi guys,

I'm working on some promo videos for amazon and was wondering if the soundtracks included in Adobe Rush are royalty free. I've also used a few free preview soundtracks from Premiere Pro and was wondering about those as well. Thanks!

The Rush soundtracks are completely free and royalty-free. Premiere offers royalty-free music but you need to license it. 

Best!

Hey,

There is music in Premiere Rush, can I use that for anything? What does it mean I have to license it?

[Tony5E80]

They are going to come back and say that you don't need to as it is royalty free. BUT, YouTube still flags for copyright. Adobe, is there a way to prodce license number to YouTube for Rush soundtracks when we get flagged?

Hi Tony,

Have you run into that issue recently? Does this happen with all soundtracks? I'll reach out to our team that handles that part of the workflow. 

Have a nice Thanksgiving!

One other suggestion - Can you let us know which track name(s) is exhibiting this issue and would you be able to take a screenshot of the YouTube error notice? 

Thanks!

Peter

What happens when you dispute the copyright claim on YouTube?

Normally they have 30 days to respond and if they don't respond they release the copyright claim.

Has anybody disputed it and had the claim released after 30 days? Thanks.

I just uploaded a video late last week and got the copyright flag. It was for Chill Jazz Shimmer. After doing extensive research online, there are quite a few people who get flagged for different rush soundtracks. A great solution would be to offer up the licensing numbers to import into YouTube. That should kill the flag within minutes. And I deleted the video and reuploaded without so I don't have the screenshot to share. I did, however, write down who claimed it - KoreanIndiePop Love Song

Hi Tony,

I'd like to try to figure this out. The think I saw the image from the flagging of your track and indicated that it was a track titled 'Love Song' that was used. Because there is no ContentID associated with the Rush track, is it possible there was other sound present? This may have occured in the same timeframe as the Chill Jazz Shimmer track, a Rush track, (I believe the timeframe was 2:22-3:44 in your video, does it sound like I'm citing the right project?). Are you able to see if there was other audio used in that timeframe that could have triggered the flag?  

[Tony5E80]

The image that was posted was not mine. This was another user. But, I can absolutley say that there was no other audio in my video. The only audio used was Chill Jazz Shimmer from Rush.

[Freeman5ECC]

I have the same copyright claim from the same user. 

I hope there is an update on this.

[Tony5E80]

Has there been any movement on this?

[petergaraway]

Thanks for sending these details. I've forward this along to the right people. Hoping to get a response shortly. Thanks for your patience as we're looking into this. 

Best, 

Peter

This is the second time I have been hit by YouTube with a copyright infringement claim.  This is for the audio file, Funk Soul Jam

[Niklas5E61]

Same here, got hit by Copyright claims on the tune "Hey Love" straight out of Premiere Rush. 

Please update on this.... its kinda annoying... 

[Jasmine5C16]

I got two copyright claims for the use of THE SAME TRACK! It's frustrating.

Hi! I'm having the same issue. 

Song Funk Soul Jam

Is there a solution for this problem? 

[Barbara Leigh5E80]

Hello,

Has this issue with the free and royalty free music on Adbobe Rush been fixed? I was hoping to use some Rush music on a charity promo I am working on for release on Sunday 14th March this year.

Thanks!

Hi Peter this is still not resolved.  Youtube is still flagging songs.  Is there a place we can get the license code for the songs offered in Rush, so we can clear them in youtube?  I love Adobe but, in this case,  it is delaying the success of it's customer's videos.  Another way for Adobe to help it's customers would be to adopt the practice of many other companies that offer music with a subscription: the option to register our youtube channels with Adobe so copyright flags can clear automatically.

Hey, don't waste your time and money and start using services like artlist, audiio, epidemicsounds, etc. 

[petergaraway]

DM'd you. 

[lbodde]

I was just hit with a copyright claim for Hey Love as well. Super frustrating.

Hi,

I used the audio file "Funk Soul Jam", but now it cannot be played again and it seems unavailable on the soundtracks' list. Do you know if it has been removed?
