TRCDistro Talks Sync: 50 Ways for Sync Licensing That If You Haven’t Tried Any of Them, You Haven’t Tried to Sync!
Why Sync Licensing?
Sync licensing is one of the most lucrative and creatively rewarding areas in today’s music industry. It refers to the placement of music in visual media—film, TV, video games, ads, YouTube, social media, VR/AR, fitness content, and more. Every video project you watch likely has music licensed by someone like you.
Music supervisors are often the gatekeepers to these placements, and relationships matter. But so does your strategy. That’s why TRCDistro is shifting gears to make sync a priority—empowering our users to be more than just streaming artists. We’re giving you the tools to monetize your music in bigger, broader, and more sustainable ways.
Below is a comprehensive, alphabetical list of 50 sync licensing platforms, complete with brief descriptions, website links, and submission portals. Whether you're a beatmaker, composer, songwriter, or full band—these are the doors you should be knocking on.
