![]() I personally have no issue with a student using my work for free provided they contact me first, and I actually happily supply Broadcast Media students at my local University with sound samples if they need them (provided they credit me ) ). the one that you work in.Īlthough, I feel this is down to the licensor, but I feel the use of these products for students and learning can be different. This person may then decide the industry is not profitable enough and then start a new career doing something else, essentially starting the process of killing industry. People slave long hours to create these samples and software and quite often for little or no money.īy pirating software and sound samples for a commercial purpose you are stopping someone getting paid for their hard work when they deserve it. This is a really tough industry to find work in. You have brought up some interesting points, but this is the way I see it. Putting aside the moral/ideological issues of doing such a thing, I'm asking myself (and you) how dangerous is it really to do so? Considering the inconceivable massive amount of sound sample libraries being released every other day? Is there really somebody out there listening to every single mix being broadcasted online or offline and trying to spot out, underneath the different mix layers and effects, sounds which require a license….?Īlso - and this is directed especially to the electronic-based sound libraries - couldn't I theoretically, with the right knowledge and gear, reproduce an exact replica of a certain sound I would be interested in using? In such case, how could one prove that I've actually stolen a sound sample from a certain library rather than used it as a reference to create a replica? I've recently completed a sound design job for a computer game trailer, in which I incorporated a few loops taken from libraries which I have no license for. Whenever I came across a sound library I really found useful, I went on and purchased it. though couldn't find anything too specific.įor some time now I've been downloading pirate audio warez (mainly SFX libraries and pre-recorded music loops) for testing purposes and personal use. ![]() ![]() I did a quick search for some information regarding sound design and legal issues, sound samples licensing, etc. ![]()
