Zinfonia Changes

Posted on May 23, 2021 by btmi

This week we published a major update to Zinfonia that contains a number of changes which are outlined below.

Gender-based Composer Searches

Composer records in Zinfonia now have a designation to identify composers by their gender (either male, female or non-binary) . We have gone through all of our 11k+ composers to provide this information, but we ask all publishers to make sure that we have categorised all of your composers correctly.

See https://www.zinfonia.com/zComposers.aspx for more information

Better Support for Recordings/Broadcast and Streaming

In the order process, when the users are prompted to provide information about recording, broadcast and streaming details, they must now select ALL of the recording types they need permission to use.

New Recording Information Screen

This information is included in Zinfonia orders immediately below the performance details:

Support for Newzik and Digital Downloads

Publishers can now direct their customers to request digital materials instead of printed materials or as an adjunct to them.

For these options to be displayed, publishers must select Newzik as a delivery option or the nkoda Publisher ID in the Publisher Details screen for EACH publisher:

Go to https://www.zinfonia.com/zPubList.aspx to view this information

The details of what digital options are entered by the customer in the Performing Materials section of a Zinfonia order.

Special Newzik options

For publishers that are represented on the Newzik platform, there is a shortcut to quickly enable or disable Newzik for ALL publisher entries via the option below on the Publisher Settings page

Go to https://www.zinfonia.com/zPubOrderSettings.aspx to change this

Note: When Newzik as a delivery option is selected, a copy of the order is sent to Newzik directly.

For the customer to be presented with Newzik options, they must enter their Newzik email address in designated section the My Account details below:

Go to https://www.zinfonia.com/zMyAccount.aspx to view this option

Better Support for in©

in© (https://www.incopyright.com) is our new platform for copyright clearances, and with your in© account you can now harness all of its features directly from within Zinfonia.

To connect your Zinfonia Publisher account to in©, you must enter your Authority ID in the publisher settings option here:

Goto https://www.zinfonia.com/zPubOrderSettings.aspx for this option

Contact BTMI for more information about getting an in© Authority ID. While the service is in Beta, no charges are required to access this service.

You have the option to select if your want to use the service to process Grand Right requests (ballet/opera etc) and/or Recording/Broadcast requests. When selected, as part of the order process when a customer enters an order that needs permissions for grand rights and/or recording, they will be required to enter these details directly on in© (a new request will be automatically created).

If you do not select those check boxes, then only the Request Permission option alongside the work will take them to in© where they must nominate the type of permission they want to request.

See this in Action

I will be showing all of these new options in an online session in the 2021 MOLA Conference. on Friday May 28 commencing at 10:00am EDT/15:00 BST/16:00 CEST.

You can also submit an order for any work published by Zinfonia to see how this works from the customer’s point of view.

Searching Zinfonia with JSON

Posted on March 14, 2021 by btmi

A lot of work has gone into the Zinfonia search engine, and all Zinfonia publishers can now take advantage of a brand new toolkit for your public websites and internal systems that will allow you to search for 10,000 composers and more than 141,000 works effortlessly.

The new search is based on a simple REST-based protocol using the industry standard JSON for the request and response data, making it ideal for use in most modern web-based systems.

The new system is fast and very easy to use, and is designed to replace the older iframe technologies that have been used on websites by many publishers.

To see it in action, click here

Access to this service requires a special token which is available, along with documentation from BTMI on request.

HLMSW Build 8.00 (Build 9.00)

Posted on February 11, 2021 by btmi

The changes in the EU membership has created a number of challenges for our UK users, particularly with the movement of materials between the UK and the EU. While we are working with those affected directly on solutions related to their business, we have made a few changes to HLMSW to assist all users.

EU or not EU?

With EU membership always changing, HLMSW now displays the EU button in the Account screen ONLY when the account is an EU Member. The button is GREY if no valid EU Tax ID is entered. HLMSW will maintain the EU countries for you, but this does mean you need to update your HLMSW whenever the membership changes.

EU Filters and Browses

A common requirement is the ability have browses or rules that are based on the EU status of the account. Now with the ACNTRYCODE form field, when using the IN comparison, you can select the European Union from the provided list.

Other changes…

There are a number of other changes to HLMSW in this version including:

  • Overdue Zinfonia Orders are now ONLY displayed by default to System Administrators or users with the All Companies permission (any Zinfonia order that has not been actioned within 3 days is automatically visible to all users). You can now toggle the view of any system-wide overdue orders with the new check box that always displays the number of overdue items.
  • The HLMSW Blog feed has moved to btmi.com.au
  • Direct in© Links to generate new incopyright.com requests are now available from within HLMSW
  • Performance Export routines have to been enhanced to allow for the regular emailing of almost any type of HLMSW data automatically.

Contact us for details.

Help is on the Way

Posted on May 14, 2020 by btmi

BTM recently upgraded their help systems to improve client services, especially with the plans for expansion in the coming months.

To make this work, we would ask all clients to use the following email addresses for any assistance for any of our platforms:
help@btmi.com.au for general enquiries or for the UIC
help@btmi.com.au for any HLMSW-based request
help@zinfonia.com for any Zinfonia-based requests (this is also the address you can share with your clients if they have any Zinfonia-related enquiries)
help@incopyright.com for the new In© platform that will be launched later this year

You can of course continue to contact us directly, but if the request is of a technical nature, we may forward it on to our help system to make sure that the requests are answered in a timely manner.

Vale David Daniels

Posted on April 29, 2020 by btmi

I was very sad to hear of the passing of David Daniels, conductor and musicologist this month.

We meet briefly at the 2017 MOLA conference in San Diego where he announced his retirement from his Orchestral Music project, a publication (and now a website) that assisted and inspired a generation of musicologists, librarians and performers. I see that the first edition of his tome was published almost 50 years ago, and its significance in those times and since cannot be understated.

David Daniels
Peter Grimshaw and David Daniels, MOLA San Diego 2017

His work was the gold-standard of accuracy, and his development of what I consider to be the most readable form of orchestration concatenations (2 2 2 2 – 4 3 3 1 – strings) known as the “Daniels Format” now sits deservedly at the summit of such representations.

My creation of both Zinfonia and the UIC was inspired by Daniels work, and I hope that these will compliment his contributions in the decades to come.

Thank you Dave.

Zinfonia charges in 2020

Posted on September 21, 2019 by btmi

Zinfonia today features more than 135,000 titles by 10,600 composers that serves our ever-expanding community of more than 47,000 Zinfonia users in 126 countries (see our engagement map here).

The costs for publishers to use Zinfonia have not changed since the service was launched in 2011, and for us to continue to provide the level of service level we currently offer, and to bring the improvements that many of you have been asking for, we must change the way Zinfonia is charged from January 2020.

For Zinfonia Connect publishers, we are instituting a subscription-based charging scheme, the details of which are available for download here.  For publishers and distributors who only receive orders from Zinfonia may continue to do so for no charge.

To help you calculate your annual costs, we have also provided a new feature in the Zinfonia Publisher section (accessible with your Publisher Access Code) where you can view and select the Zinfonia tier you would like to subscribe to with estimates of your annual costs based on your current usage. Click here to access this resource

You can set your subscription tier at any time, but if no tier is selected prior to January 1st, 2020, we will select the tier we believe will give you the best value based on your history.
