White Bat Audio

Hello Everyone!

As of May 31, 2024, I will be implementing an automated 'Content ID' detection software for my library of music to protect its safe usage and to stop others from fraudulently claiming copyright on YouTube videos that use my music.

This means that things will REMAIN THE SAME for those who use my music here on YouTube:

- A simple credit of “Music by Karl Casey”, “Music by White Bat Audio” or tagging my YouTube channel @whitebataudio in the video description is enough.
- The credit MUST be in the video description as the content ID software detects text in the description only.
- This content ID system is for YouTube ONLY.
- It will ONLY make a copyright claim, NOT a copyright strike. Your channel will not be in any danger of strikes.
- if you haven’t credited me and need to do so, here is how to edit multiple video descriptions at once:


BULK UPDATE VIDEO DESCRIPTIONS
If you need to update a lot of videos, in YouTube Studio follow these steps.
1. Open Content Tab
2. Select videos you want to update (or select all)
3. Click Edit > Description
4. Select where you want it to be added to (Insert at end for example)
5. Add text
6. Click 'Update Videos


If credit is not given properly, then you will likely receive a copyright claim.

If you receive a copyright claim when using my music and you're sure that you've credited me correctly in the description, you can simply fill out this form and the claim will be removed/dealt with very quickly: forms.gle/X5QvKPN1YEx7eiKV7

Once you've filled out the above form, you can dispute the claim on YouTube and it will be dropped.

Or, if we had previously set up an agreement where credit couldn’t be placed in the video description for a specific reason, then simply reach out to me via email (karl@whitebataudio.com) and I can personally whitelist your video/channel so you will not be affected.

I want my music to be an accessible and trustworthy source of free-to-use music, so I am excited to be able to protect my work while offering you all a solid, reliable music library that won’t be hit with fraudulent copyright claims from others.

Thank you all for your continued support!

Cheers,

Karl

I use one of your YouTube mixes as my intro/break/outro music for my stream. Credit and your link always given multiple times during the stream. Never had a copyright strike with the exception of a single warning. Apparently, there was an issue with one track that someone else was claiming in your mix and the video got muted for the couple minutes. Other than that, smooth sailing. Thank you for everything that you do!

Good on you. Your music is phenomenal and deserves the proper recognition. People are so quick to steal content, scam, or profit off of another’s work. It’s really unfortunate, but I’m glad you’re protecting your work. I use your playlists in a lot of my videos, always giving credit, and I love it. Thank you and keep it up.

I had some previous livestreams which used your music and were not crediting it in the description, I fixed that now, thanks for providing such amazing content for us for free!

Hey, brother, thank you for your great music! I've been using it for less than a year in all my episodes, and I always give you the credit in the video description! You rock. Blessings to you and your family! Myths, Mysteries, and Majesty

Good on you. Your music is amazing and you should definitely get the rep and should be acknowledged for that

I'm genuinely glad you've done this, because the software has detected a couple of videos where I forgot to put the attribution in the description, and I have a bananas number of videos up so I can't manually check them all for the mistake. I truly do strive to give you credit every time (in the description and at the start of each video). Your music enhances my videos tremendously! Without it, people would have to listen to me talk without anything else to distract them. :) So I enthusiastically preach the gospel of White Bat.

You are awesome. I'm not a content creator but I ride my motorcycle while listening to your dark synth wave and pretend I'm in Bladerunner. ☺️

@NFoundation

I credited you in titles, descriptions and inside my videos (in prologues and epilogues ) because it's truly great compositions. Thank you, you made 90% of the atmosphere in my videos
