Music producers: ISRC codes and joining Panorama, formerly Soproq

Distinguish recording identification, society membership and repertoire registration.

Check before acting

An ISRC identifier does not replace rights agreements or recording registration.

Recognize the current service

Soproq has operated as Panorama since September 2025. Use the current contact details and portal when resuming an older producer account. [4]

Request the identifier

The ISRC form serves people in Canada and asks whether a code was previously requested. Applicants based elsewhere are directed to their national agency. [1]

Complete membership

Eligible producers and rights holders create an Octave account, submit membership information, then sign and upload the agreement. Activation follows validation; obtaining an ISRC code does not activate membership. [2]

Register recordings

Prepare titles, performers, ISRC identifiers and production and rights information. Verify territories and ownership shares before registering repertoire and correcting incomplete records. [3]
