![]() Then they go through all the packs and compile "new" packs with the best of those samples. ![]() They don't even own any hardware synths/drum machines but a lot of downloaded sample packs from other "sample producers". Most of those "sample labels" sold via distributor XYZ are one-man-shows, mostly kids. Of course the likelihood of anyone actually buying my crappy sounding instrument is probably minimal, so they probably wouldn't bother with me anyway. They lose out on free advertising by stopping this. But if they go after Guy, it will make it less likely others will make videos showing how useful their products are, leading to less sales. Do they go after Guy as well? He technically made it possible for me to make my instrument. I could download these videos, create an instrument from the single notes and put it out. I mean, I am watching someone like Guy Michelmore create a piece of music on YouTube using exposed notes. The lawyers make these things very broad, because even though they would probably never go after me for my piece, the option is there. If you use a VI violin to write a solo piece that is all your own melody that maybe includes an open chromatic run, at what point are you violating the terms of agreement? If I can't do this, then why am I buying these libraries? I think the language in the terms is a little too broad. So you make a 20 bar piece of music, for want of a better term, using a layered combination of these loops in a chord progression, add some percussion and FX, and you have a sellable piece of "music" that can be looped. Because there are products - such as Heavyocity's NOVO, that are made up of loops. When I say loops, I'm thinking produced music made up of multiple samples arranged musically. If you are making MUSIC for licensing, selling, streaming, etc etc then you can do whatever you want.Ĭlick to expand.You can't use single samples or single phrases as loops if that is how they come out of the VI. In general, if you are selling audio as samples or loops then you shouldnt use ANY sample libraries. If you are making small 20s loops for selling to producers and composers, primarily using sample libraries, then that is a repackaging in my eyes. Furthermore these samples, sound sets or audio may not be repackaged in whole or in part as audio samples, sound libraries or sound effects." ![]() Individual samples, sound sets or audio loops may not be distributed (commercially or otherwise) standalone.
