The name doesn't sound at all familiar to me. Are they like windchimes? Orchestral chimes? Clock chimes? _____ From: ddots-l-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:ddots-l-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Dave Hillebrandt Sent: Thursday, August 26, 2010 7:55 PM To: ddots-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [ddots-l] Re: License Agreement 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.

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.

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.

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.

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. <blocked::http://www.waycoolsamples.com/> http://www.waycoolsamples.com No virus found in this incoming message.
