Copyrighting sound samples could be particularly tricky and certainly agree
that a lawyer who specificly handles copyrights and music law would be who you
need. Depending where you live, this may not always be the easiest type of
attourney to find cause smaller areas may not have too many of them around.
First thing would be proof that either you made these samples or paid someone
to make them because there are often legal rangling with rap musicians using
samples that they lifted from someone else. Best of luck, Dave

I think he's basically saying that we're not legal experts and copyright is a
legal issue.
Without the proper research and legal advice from qualified experts, you
could be leaving yourself open to all sorts of trouble.
You wouldn't ask a dog trainer about heart sergery for a totally stupid
example.

What do you mean when you say, "you could find out that you're your own worst
enemy? That sounds kind of strange.

Hi,
Darren's absolutely right. If you're operating professionally you need
professional legal advice when drawing up license terms, etc. or you could find
out that you're your own worst enemy.
Best wishes.

Hi, it's Annabelle.
I'm in the process of starting a company that sells sample libraries, and I
have an important question for you. What does it mean when companies say that
their sample libraries are 100% copyright clean? I want to make sure that the
sample libraries that I make and sell through my company are 100% copyright
clean. How do I do this? Also, how should I write the license agreement that
will go with these sample libraries? The first library I'm planning to sell
will be called Way-Cool Bell Choir. I plan to sell it for $200 a copy. More
information about my company can be found here. http://www.waycoolsamples.com
