That's the kind of thinking that makes it so. You can absolutely sound different from everyone else. I say, and I would tell everyone this, to stop sampling other people's music. How will you ever come up with your own creativity and something to call your own if you don't?...SBN RESONATE
When using samples I don’t really use drum loops and stuff like that, I make that stuff all myself but I do use sfx and one shots and other stuff from sample packs
I've always looked at it like this. You can do any sample as far as fair use but you cannot take or rip entire songs, even if it's considered a "sample" or parts of a song that is looped.
If you do not profit from the music It's still copyright infringement and I can take legal action agaist you for perceived loss of earnings even if you didn't make any money off it. I can claim that your distribution My music in you track has damaged the patentaul sales of My origanal song.
Hey' are they international copyright. I happen to “borrow”300 Gb sample packs from a friend(lol to that). Some of those have a scary license agreement. Also are VTS sound presets/sound banks Copyrighted as well.? I’m a beginner and your clarification will help a lot. Thanks.
what is when I use a splice sample, that another artist already used and released? If it is his release and he was first, he will end up with the copyright, so I am not allowed to use it anymore. If Splice releases samples under the creative commons licence, you would not be allowed to earn money with it, would you? so how does it work^^
Even if an artist uses a sample from splice before you, they don't own the copyright. The person that put that sample available on splice owns the copyright. Splice's service gives you permission to use that sample in your music and profit off of it on behalf of the person that uploaded it to splice. Nobody can copyright claim other people for using a sample they don't own the copyrights to.
Hello I’ve been following you for a while and enjoy watching your content. This is a copy and paste comment that originally I comment this on decap channel which you might be familiar with cause of course he’s more known for his packs on spice and all and here goes: I seen how distrokid now like okay so I’m seeing right now that if you want RU-vid content Id on distrokid it mentions you can’t use sample loops from Logic, ableton, etc. and I of course Mostly use splice samples. When of course in the mood of doing sample beats. I’m not sign up to distrokid yet but seen a video discuss about it and so I do make songs because I’m also a rapper and singer and most songs I am planning to release once I sign up to distro some songs do include royalty free samples from splice so should I not then check the RU-vid content Id then pretty much? What do you think and of course have use samples as yours but mainly it’ll be one shot kicks, snares or once in awhile using loops drums.if using melodies of course I’ll either chop it up or spice it up like playing vst and others on top of it. Thank you 😊
Heyo just wondering, what about Presets and Patches? i have a ton of serum presets from Waproductions purchases that built up from before i had serum and it gets me thinking can i get copyright struck or even sued over preset use from presets that i got in my royalty free sample packs? would i be entitled to full ownership/copyright etc of my masters and so on if i dont use samples but i use presets in with my own designed sounds? would i have to go back and ask for "clearance" or is that provided in my license?
What if I put the song out free download? And on my distrokid/streaming money I never opened the vault of the streaming money. So if the publishing company wants to have a meeting, then I can show them right then and there that all the money made off the song is all there and never been touched. Technically that’s me not making any money off them bcuz I’ve never spent it nor touched it. This is when I tell them “now that I got your attention”… and proceed with asking them where do they want to move forward with this and give them their fair share and actually buy the right then and there. Has anybody else thought of this idea? I came up with this using my logical mind mixed with knowing how the game works. Someone please elaborate with me!🙏🏿
When sampling I always put it out free download as my mixtape stuff bcuz I’d rather gain a following first and not get sued for making money off the sample. Mixtapes we’re always free and no one got sued for rapping on another major artists beat back in the day. So why not put out the samples song out for free? Same concept you’re still using a major artist’s song! Might as well put it out free download and gain your followers, then they’ll feel grateful enough for receiving free music that they’ll definitely buy your album originally produced!! I’ll put out my LP stuff which is originally composed as for sale and work with that streaming money and never touch the mixtape streaming money until it’s time to have a meeting and show them you’ve never touched the money and you’re opening the distrokid account vault for the first time in front of these publishing agents.
No as the copyright owner can take legal action agaist you for perceived loss of earnings even when you make no money from it I could say that your distribution of My music writhing your track has damaged the sales of My origanal song.
Only if it states so either by the artist to you dirrectly or in the terms discription of the music's location. For exaple if you use My music and post it in your video without My knowledge and I did not stipulate that you can then I can take legal action agaist you to recover any earning You have made.
There's a big difference between one shot samples like a snare, clap or hi hat, and taking a whole melody or part of a song, putting it in a beat, and then calling it your own. There is levels to it, and there is a stage where it becomes plagerism and stealing to me. I'm sorry, and please don't get offended, but I am a ground up, from scratch producer, and there is hardly any of us anymore. When Timbaland said that there are no more producers, he wasn't lying. Hardly anyone makes their very own beats with just one shot samples and there own synth melodies and instruments. It's just recycled sounds and melodies over and over again, that somebody else already made. You could have made that melody yourself if you really wanted to, but like so many, you chose to take a melody sample from somebody else, and hey, it's whatever, if that's what you want to do, but you can only call yourself a producer with the drums and other sounds that you yourself made, everything else you can't really call your own. That's just how I see it, and it's very hard to make it your own. Basically, all these people making music are labelling themselves as "music producer's", and that's not what they are. They are sampling artist and/or beat makers. That's all I'm saying...SBN RESONATE
@@LaMarkBall No, that's different than taking a whole drum brake. Synthesizers and drum machines are for producers mostly. MPC's and DAWS are more for sampling, but people like me use an MPC, not for sampling, but recording my own sounds and melodies. All that I'm saying is that there is a huge difference between a one shot sample like a hi hat or snare, then taking a whole entire melody or part of someone's song as a sample. Then, it's almost like taking the whole rhythm itself, if that makes sense...SBN RESONATE
@@nataneskaton i understand, but imo taking a sample out of the whole melody doesnt mean you cant make it your own, like chopping a couple different parts out of it taking it together makes it a new song for the most part
It seem like only way ppl can make good beats is if they sampled other ppl songs well atleast to make a hit is to use another hit I ain’t go lie somebody sample me I’m suing lol
What happened to the days that songwriters wrote everything from scratch and recorded their own instruments? I enjoy writing each instrument on paper, then put it all together.
I have some good news for you, there are people who consistently do that to this day, and that is never going away, no matter how big labels and people get. :) If you want to know what I'm talking about, find my comment in this comment section. :P Edit: Otherwise, I can dm you the comment if you can't find it.
Bro please make a video on vocal chain,vocal, bus dry ,wet everything which can make our vocal sound professional. Basically what we want is a full video from recording to exporting please adriel ❤️🙏🙏
Hi! I have a question relating to this. Do you happen to know how this works with taking random audio-snippets from a youtube video? Is is treated the same way?
I got a question, it seems dumb but, if we're talking about samples that are not taken from anything but just instrument samples found online, is it the same? I mean, if I make a electric guitar riff with a guitar sample pack found online, can someone claim it being his guitar soundpack? In the end all guitars could sound the same
@@g0stn0te i know that, and personally i don't care. the only thing i ever worried about is my own music. but i'll probably just say fuck it and use it anyway from now on.
You can give your mix away free but you can't distribute it online so if you happy making Mixtape CDs and giving them out then your fine but charge for it and your breaking the law.
Okay but ive sampled two songs so far. Havent released them but: the wii shop banner theme, and a song from the sountrack of turbo dismount. How would i even get a hold of Nintendo for a sample that doesnt look like it would have a license to be copyrighted in the first place? The turbo dismount song im pretty sure is licensed so i know id have to ask.
One question, can you use a obviously sampled beat and rap over it? its obviously sampled because its just a song from the game or tv show just with a trap beat over it or something like that
If a Producer gives out a sample for FREE, meaning free use and royalty free, and 2 different artists use the same sample, is one person able to copyright it and sue the other one for using the same sample?
