SAMPLE MODE
In SAMPLE mode, you may record sounds and in EDIT SAMPLE mode, you may, amongst
other things, trim, loop, join, merge, reverse, re-sample and timestretch recordings. But before
we can do any of that, we first need to make some recordings.
EDIT SAMPLE is where you edit your recordings. You may, amongst other things, trim, loop,
join, merge, reverse, re-sample and timestretch recordings. But before we can do any of that,
we first need to make some recordings. In this case, you must also read the following very
carefully.
IT IS AN OFFENCE TO RECORD COPYRIGHT AUDIO MATERIAL FROM
COMPACT DISCS.
EVERY CD CARRIES THIS WARNING:
“ALL RIGHTS OF THE PRODUCER AND OWNER OF THE RECORDED WORK
ARE PROTECTED BY LAW. UNAUTHORISED COPYING, PUBLIC
PERFORMANCE, BROADCASTING, HIRING OR RENTAL OF THIS
RECORDING PROHIBITED.”
This means that it is illegal to record from an audio CD without first obtaining prior permission
from the holders of the copyright to do so. Failure to obtain copyright clearance could result in
very serious legal consequences.
The special sampling CDs contain sounds designed for sampling and are created for this
purpose. However, be warned! These sampling CD are also subject to certain copyright
restrictions and carry a warning something like the following:
“EVERY EFFORT HAS BEEN MADE TO ENSURE THAT THIS CD CONTAINS

“PURCHASE OF THIS CD ENTITLES THE PURCHASER TO USE THE

COMPETITIVE PRODUCT. ANY INFRINGEMENT OF COPYRIGHT WILL BE
PURSUED TO THE FULLEST EXTENT.”
This means that you may freely sample the sounds on the sampling CD but you may not use
such samples for any commercial gain. Once again, if you are caught doing this, you may be
sued by the copyright holders.
THEREFORE, IN ALL OF THE ABOVE, WHENEVER YOU USE A SAMPLING
CD, YOU HAVE TO HAVE PERMISSON, OR USE A COPYRIGHT FREE CD. WE
CANNOT BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY SUCH ACTION BROUGHT
AGAINST YOU FOR VIOLATION OF THIS LAW
