Hi all
some time ago i sampled a vintage rhythmbox (the Denon CRB 90) and created
a hydrogen drumkit with these samples
being the good civilian i am i decided to try and contact Denon and
politely ask them if i could use these samples (and if possible release the
drumkit under some sort of CC license)
the answer i got was this :
uhu : nada, nothing, null, etc ...
so i figured if they dont allow me to use the samples ... why dont you
guys ;-P
no seriously, does anyone know if i can use the samples -without going to
jail and all-
the box is really old (see
http://crb90.files.wordpress.com/2010/08/rhythmbox-crb-90-japan-advert.jpg)
so i was wondering if there is a limitation on the time that samples are
'protected' by a license
any ideas ?
thanx guys!
grtz
Thijs

Hello, Thijs.
I'm not an expert in licensing, but you did well contacting them
because it is good to know the licensing they provided about the
samples (or related to "sampling the samples") when they sold the
unit.
Maybe you can do search some search for the instructions manual (if
any and if somebody scanned it, it seems old).
You can also contact people who made something similar, I guess those
who made, for instance, the Roland TR-x0x series.
Hope it helps.
Regards
And he didn't end up in jail so far.
Best,
Jeremy
thanks for the tips guys
i think i'll take the risk, but only if you promise to come visit me in jail ;-)
