Syncspace is built and run by working musicians to support other working musicians. Syncspace enables musicians to perform and earn income regardless of social distancing restrictions or distance between cities. It saves artists the cost and time of travel, setup, and teardown for rehearsals and performances. It also allows musicians to expand their network by easily performing with other musicians in other cities.

In 2021, we paid artists over $40,000 from tickets and tips for performing in concerts at our virtual venue. The economics of performing at our virtual venue are extremely good. In return for presenting your performance as part of our concert series, which includes working closely with you to help with setup, attending a rehearsal, preparing a promotional trailer for social media (see examples), and broadcasting your performance, we take an equal share of revenue, after deducting payment processing fees. So if there are four musicians we take 20% and you receive the other 80% to split between the ensemble. With duos, we cap our take at 25%. There’s no deposit and no minimum fee so there’s very little risk or downside and tons of potential upside. We work together and if we sell enough tickets, we can all do very well as our overhead is much lower than a traditional brick and mortar venue.

Additionally, if you are the leader of a concert at our virtual venue, you receive one free month of syncspace. If you’re already a subscriber, your monthly fee is refunded for that month. If you’re not a subscriber, we’ll provide you with a syncspace for the month leading up to your show so you can rehearse with your ensemble.

If performing in our concert series doesn’t make sense, you can pay us a flat fee to professionally broadcast your performance using our platform and we discount these rates for professional artists. As each event is unique, we don’t have a standard price for this service but our rates are very reasonable and we’re motivated to showcase your talents powered by our platform. Our goal is that the cost for you is no more than you might typically pay for full production service and venue rental at any physical location. Contact us to find out more.

All syncspaces available from this page are for Studio plans for individual musicians, professional artists, and teachers. These let you subscribe for a flat fee and invite whoever you want to join you, as long as you are always there with them.

For organizations, schools, and venues, we offer Virtual Venue plans that permit unattended use. Get a single syncspace and let any teacher, ensemble, section, or group use it.

Contact us for details.

You can purchase Small (7 people), Medium (15 people), and Large (30 people) syncspaces from this page. If you have an ensemble larger than this, please contact us.

Contact us for on-premise and hybrid options with people together at the same physical location but socially distanced in separate rooms.

The Performer plan we offered with our version 1 release is effectively now the Always-On Studio. A similar offering available on our new edge computing network is the On-Demand Studio. While it offers a lot more locations, it’s not yet available in every single location where we offer Always-On service. This is constantly changing but you can check our network map to see where we are offering service.

Neither is necessarily better than the other. It depends on your needs. Here’s the greatest differences between the two services:

Readiness: An Always-On syncspace is always ready to go. There’s never anything else do do. With On-Demand you have to login into your account here on our website and create a syncspace. If you need it immediately, it may take a few seconds although in some locations it may possibly take a few minutes.

Server address: The server address for an Always-On syncspace is always the same. You always know where to go and what you need to share when inviting others to join you. With On-Demand, you’ll receive a different server address every time you create a syncspace. This might be an asset if you’re operating a Virtual Venue syncspace with lots of different groups and would prefer not to share the same server address with a wide variety of individuals and ensembles.

Locations: Our On-Demand service is available in many more locations but there are a few locations where Always-On is the only option. This is always changing but you can check our network map to see where we offer service. Always-On syncspaces always stay in one place. If you tend to play with the same group of people or people who are always in roughly the same area, then they’ll likely get the same latency each time. An On-Demand plan offers the option to choose a different location each time, and when you let the service choose the location based on the locations and connections of the performers, you are getting the lowest possible latency each time.

We do offer a trial of our on-demand service. Please contact us if you would like to try this out.
