14、ation) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be
15、 represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. International Standar
16、ds are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 3. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies cast
17、ing a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this International Standard may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. International Standard ISO 3901 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC

20、nd music video recordings internationally. An ISRC identifies the recording throughout its life and is intended for use by producers of recordings as well as by copyright organizations, broadcasting organizations, media libraries and archives, etc. SANS 3901:2009This standard may only be used and pr

22、a standard code for the unique identification of recordings. The International Standard Recording Code (ISRC) may be applied to audio recordings and music video recordings regardless of whether they are in analogue or digital formats. The ISRC shall not be used for the numbering of audio or audiovis
23、ual carriers (e.g. compact discs or videocassettes). Audiovisual recordings, other than music video recordings produced in conjunction with an audio recording, are excluded from the scope of this International Standard. Such audiovisual recordings should be assigned an International Standard Audiovi
24、sual Number (ISAN) in accordance with ISO 15706. 2 Normative reference The following normative document contains provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this International Standard. For dated references, subsequent amendments to, or revisions of, any of these publi
25、cations do not apply. However, parties to agreements based on this International Standard are encouraged to investigate the possibility of applying the most recent edition of the normative document indicated below. For undated references, the latest edition of the normative document referred to appl
26、ies. Members of ISO and IEC maintain registers of currently valid International Standards. ISO 3166-1, Codes for the representation of names of countries and their subdivisions Part 1: Country codes 3 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this International Standard the following terms and defin
27、itions apply. 3.1 country code code that identifies the country in which the home office of the registrant for the recording is located at the time the ISRC is assigned 3.2 music video recording audiovisual fixation of which the audio component consists wholly or substantially of a recording of a pe
28、rformance of a musical work or works NOTE In most cases such an audio component is produced in conjunction with a separately issued sound recording. 3.3 recording result of a recording process independent of the type and number of audio or audiovisual carriers and technology used SANS 3901:2009This
29、standard may only be used and printed by approved subscription and freemailing clients of the SABS.ISO 3901:2001(E) 2 ISO 2001 All rights reserved NOTE The term recording applies to each recorded item which may be used as a separate unit regardless of whether it is issued as part of a larger recorde
30、d work (e.g. each separate track on an album of audio recordings). 3.4 registrant original producer or subsequent owner of the audio recording or music video recording at the time the ISRC is assigned NOTE If the original producer sells a recording, with all rights, before its ISRC is assigned, the
31、acquirer is considered to be the registrant for the purposes of ISRC from then on. 4 Structure and format of the ISRC 4.1 General An ISRC consists of 12 characters and is alphanumeric, using the arabic numerals 0 to 9 and letters of the Roman alphabet. It is divided into four elements in the followi
32、ng order: a) country code (see 4.2); b) registrant code (see 4.3; c) year of reference element (see 4.4); d) designation code (see 4.5). When an International Standard Recording Code is written, printed or otherwise visually presented, it shall be preceded by the letters ISRC and the four elements o
33、f the ISRC shall be separated from each other by a hyphen. EXAMPLE ISRC FR-Z03-97-00212 Code identifier: ISRC Country code: FR (i.e. France) Registrant code: Z03 (i.e. Mercury France) Year of reference: 97 (i.e. 1997) Designation code: 00212 (i.e. 212th recording assigned an ISRC by Mercury France i
34、n 1997) 4.2 Country code The country code identifies the country in which the registrants home office is located at the time the ISRC is assigned. The country code shall consist of two letters and shall be in accordance with the codes specified in ISO 3166-1. EXAMPLES GB United Kingdom DE Germany SE

36、s allocated. Since ISRCs are normally assigned at the point at which the full mastering process is finalized (see A.1.2), the registrant code usually reflects the original producer of the audio recording or music video recording. However, if the original producer sells a recording, with all rights,
37、before its ISRC is assigned, the subsequent owner would be the registrant for the purposes of the ISRC. The registrant code shall consist of three alphanumeric characters (A to Z and 0 to 9). EXAMPLES A83 BMG (Han Kook) Music Co. Ltd. 8G5 77 Productions 28R Inca Productions 191 Sony Music Entertainm
38、ent AG WP0 Warner Music Japan Inc. RIP Riptide Productions Producers shall use the registrant codes assigned to them by the appointed ISRC agency for their country or region (see annex A). 4.4 Year of reference element The year of reference element identifies the year in which the ISRC is allocated
39、to the recording (see A.1.2). The year of reference element shall consist of two characters representing the last two digits of the year in which the ISRC was allocated. It shall be assigned by the registrant. EXAMPLES: 98 1998 01 2001 4.5 Designation code The designation code identifies each record
40、ing or part of a larger recorded work that may be used as a separate unit and that is identified as such by the registrant (e.g. in documentation such as the lists of tracks included with the physical carrier). The designation code shall consist of 5 digits. It shall be assigned by the producer (or
41、subsequent owner) indicated in the registrant code. Numbers for the designation code should be assigned sequentially and shall not be reassigned within the same year indicated by the year of reference element. To ensure that the designation code contains 5 digits, zeros shall be used as fill charact
42、ers at the start of the numerical sequence.

44、(normative) Guidelines for the application of ISRC A.1 General principles for the allocation of ISRC A.1.1 Each recording shall have its own unique ISRC. A.1.2 An ISRC should be allocated at the point at which the decision to release a recording is taken and before the full mastering process for the
45、 recording is completed. However, backstock created prior to implementation of the ISRC system may also be assigned ISRC. Further details are provided in the ISRC Practical Guide issued by the International ISRC Agency. A.1.3 Any new or changed recording shall be provided with a new ISRC. Any change
46、 in sound or image of a recording which affects the intellectual property rights involved requires the allocation of a new ISRC. A.1.4 If the original registrant sells the recording in unchanged form after it is released, the ISRC for the recording shall remain the same. A.1.5 A separate ISRC shall
47、be assigned to each recorded item which constitutes a separate unit of a larger work (e.g. for each track on an album of recordings). If a registrant intends to exploit part(s) of a larger work separately from the larger work an ISRC should be assigned to each such part of the larger work. When a re
48、cording is re-issued in its entirety as part of another work (e.g. a compilation album), the ISRC for the recording shall remain the same. A.1.6 Re-use of an ISRC that has already been allocated for another recording is not permitted. A.1.7 Designation codes should be assigned sequentially. However,
49、 producers may use other schemes compatible with the 5-digit format of the designation code provided there is no possibility that this will lead to duplicate ISRC being created. A.1.8 The ISRC should be included in all relevant documentation concerning a recording. A.1.9 The issuance of an ISRC shall in no way be related to the process of copyright registration. A.2 Modified versions A.2.1 For the purposes of ISRC assignment, a recording shall be considered as a modified version only if its recorded content has b
