If you are like most indie filmmakers, you don’t have access to an unlimited budget to solve all of your music scoring needs. This is true whether you are looking for a complete music scoring solution, or an affordable and professional way to augment music scoring resources such as composers or licensing popular music.
SmartSound has a solution that can benefit all filmmakers, regardless of your situation. Our patented music technology in the Sonicfire Pro software provides you with a flexible music scoring solution that allows your score to adapt to changes made to your film during the creative process. Think of it as a music partner that is with you every step of the way, delivering music on demand while you edit and re-edit each scene until it's just right. Not only is Sonicfire Pro on hand at all times, but with SmartSound's huge library of professional compositions, you'll get more variety than you could achieve with a single composer. With SmartSound music, you have the flexibility to personally customize all SmartSound tracks through our patented software to perfectly fit your creative vision and film. Additionally SmartSound offers special low package pricing for film festivals making the best use of your precious budget. And upgrading your license once distribution is locked is a snap with our streamlined and simplified license for all rights.

Our new timing controls and Sensory Searching™ allow you to precisely time your music selections to each scene as if a composer scored the piece to your scene. Simply drag a beat of music to a key point in your film and Sonicfire Pro 5 will move that beat to that point and keep the rhythm and arrangement of the remainder of the track intact. Our new Spotting & Timing feature allows you to set key points throughout your film and then match all the music in SmartSound's vast library that come closest to fitting those points. |

Broadway: The Golden Age |

When working on his award-winning documentary “Broadway: The Golden Age”, Rick McKay spent almost all of his $200,000 music budget acquiring the rights for songs from musicals. He turned to SmartSound to provide the remaining music. For around $500, Rick was able to score the additional one-third of his movie with SmartSound.
“My movie is proof that by combining needed licensed music and innovative technology, you CAN create a high-quality soundtrack without breaking the bank,” says Rick.
