This is an original split sheet worksheet for songs. You type the song title, the writers, the roles, and the shares you agreed on, then print it. It is not a court form, a performing rights organization form, or a Copyright Office form, and it does not register the song.
How to use it
To create a split sheet, enter the song title, add each writer, list the roles, and record the shares you agreed to. Then check that the total matches your agreement before you print it.
- Type names and shares
- Check the sum
If you want background first, see what a split sheet is or read about how writers divide shares.
What to leave blank
Do not invent a share if you have not agreed on one. If the split is not clear, ask a music lawyer before you rely on the worksheet.
- Do not invent a share
- Ask a music lawyer before you rely on it
What it is not
This worksheet is not a registration and it is not a performing rights signup. Copyright can exist automatically in an original work once it is fixed in a tangible medium, but registration is separate.
- Not a registration
- Not a performing rights signup
