It does sound like fun for sure even though cost a bit of money from what it 
sounds. Hopefully you can now do some recording on your sonar software and not 
have to rent as much studio space from someone else. I had thought about 
sampling some shokra chimes I have but its hard to find a microphone that 
really does the job. For the price you are looking, it would have to be someone 
or group who really took hand bells seriously, but am sure there are such 
groups. I hope you are able to find your market for them. Dave

  The only thing I paid for was gasoline for our car when going to and from 
Seattle, renting the studio space, renting a moving truck to transport the 
bells, and thirteen hours of studio time.

  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.

    Cheers

    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
