Music Maestro
“Music Maestro takes away the drudgery and frees you to be creative. I can quickly see what songs are actually earning, what songs are doing well. You can immediately see what’s coming in and tell if it matches what you know has been sold. In short, it makes life easy.” John Telfer
Founder, Basement Brazil

Software for Music Publishers

Music Maestro is the world’s most comprehensive administration software package for music publishers. Much more than a simple royalties software solution, its modular framework allows you to build a personalised system that will improve your business. Its intuitive interface gives you quick, easy access to all the information you need.

 
 

Counterpoint loves music publishing!

We may now work with all sectors of the entertainment industry, but, much like the music industry itself, Counterpoint started in publishing. Our competitors offer solutions to labels, broadcasters, film distributors and licensing companies. So - why not music publishing? For Counterpoint, it is different. We have a heart for music publishing, and our clients benefit from that passion. We offer solutions not just to service our clients, but also to allow them to work with their sub-publishers. Music Maestro manages the whole process from registration to royalties, and automates catalog shipment to sub-publishers - making you an extremely attractive publishing company. With more publishers using Counterpoint worldwide than any other solution, don’t take our word for it, ask your publishing partners.

 

Royalties and more

Music Maestro loads the statements you receive, matches income to songs, applies the appropriate rates and then pays the right people based on your contractual terms. We’ve even found ways of improving the process by distributing statements online and providing your clients with online royalty banking. All this empowers you to do your publishing royalties - but we don’t stop there! Just because no one else wants to provide publishing royalty solutions, it doesn’t mean Counterpoint takes your business for granted. We have developed so many additional modules for the the modern publishing business that we have started packaging them up and giving them away – ask our sales team for our list of additional modules so you can pick and choose which of your costly processes you’d like to see automated.

 
 
 

Counterpoint are the music publishing specialists

Counterpoint have put over twenty years of industry experience into our software - but our clients are the real driving force for our solutions. With such a mature royalties solution, we are also able to address other requirements that publishing companies have identified as critical to their business. For example, we have a full blown licensing solution which covers the administration of synchronization, permissions, print and mechanical licenses. We also work closely with industry bodies to make sure our systems are fully compliant for our customers, and our involvement with the CISAC / IMPA / ICMP CWR Working Group has resulted in a new version of our CWR registration module which is now fully integrated with our royalty solution.
