  • Boards of Deluge #3 Patch Bank - 50 new presets available now! :)

    When people doubt the capabilities of the synth engine of the deluge they should surely take a look at this. From what I can hear also these patches will not lock you down into a specific genre but they can be used for everything. Bravissimo, I will buy.

  • Sampling and potential trouble

    Wanted to chime in on this. I felt that one could easily copyright a song due to its complete and identifiable nature. However, samples become challenging, i.e. to attribute ownership and identify as intellectual property.

    There should be a line somewhere. Samples are basically what the name itself implies, here as bits of audio (read till end). Who is to say that the author did not sample (pun not intended) from elsewhere in the first place. Add in the plethora of FXs and other tweaks and you would not be able to tell for sure the origin to ascertain ownership. How short should a sample be before it is deemed as non-exclusive for all intents and purposes - 3 seconds, 2 seconds or ½ second? Single-cycle waveforms anyone?

    So much sounds/samples out there. With ingenuity and research you could get almost all sounds imaginable, so I think we should just use samples with a pinch of salt and not be too caught up with its origin. Pay the provider if you really wish to and get on with the music making.

    I totally agree with you. There are no reasons to get stressed about it at all. Especially if you are not into something really big. And even there, they sample like crazy everything they can.
