Lmms sample packs1/7/2024 ![]() That said, I think it would be cool to have some songs with credit in the about section. What is the purpose of the program LMMS? Is it both a program to make music with AND promote artists? Up until now, so it seems, but should it continue that trend? I feel the promotion part could be delegated to other areas of the community. Now as a contributor to the program LMMS. If I were an artist), I wouldn't want to give away any serious work.Ĭause that is how (I too think) we as artists think. If credit is a way to go, this is a good idea.Īssuming you are suggesting accreditation beyond the About dialogue in the following We can replace “Demos” and “Cool Songs” and “Shorties” (.) with CC0, CC-BY, and CC-BY-NC/SA. If presets can be copyrighted, why isn't that a thing already? There are many CC0 samples out there, right? There are even more licensed samples which some of them you would download and "forget" to give credit on, so making LMMS ship with samples and presets that you have to pay more attention to when you use them than the ones you download seems a bit illogical.Ī thing I have thought about is: How can presets even be copyrighted? It makes no sense!?! You could just make a program that that twist all knobs and save the preset and then copyright all freaking possibilities, lol. On the other hand, shouldn't a producer get a grasp on basic copyright if they’re going to be using other’s work? CC is pretty useful to know about.ĬC0 on samples and presets, IMO. That makes sense too, and CC0 is pretty great on that front. Perhaps we want to keep the licenses as transparent as possible to the end user. Maybe that would be too confusing for users, or focus on the wrong thing. We can replace “Demos” and “Cool Songs” (difference?) and “Shorties” (Why is this a category?) with CC0, CC-BY, and CC-BY-NC/SA. Which is why, if it’s possible, I’d say having multiple projects with different licenses available might work. And I can see them having different benefits, too. So as is evident by the totally objective factual arguments that are missing from anything I just said, I can see a lot of licenses being fair for a lot of things. Samples/presets maaaybe, projects once again seems fair. But enough of Mr 305 Worldwide palabras español y listado ciudades. If maybe Pitbull would do this people wouldn’t think he created the melody in Sugar (Blue (Da Ba Dee)) or the vocal in Good Feeling (Came out suspiciously close after Avicii sampled the same vocal). It makes sense to give attribution if you remix or borrow from someone else’s project, I’d consider it courtesy. The ones we have now are good and should obviously be CC0/no license, but once again “preset packs”/”luxury” presets or some artist’s signature sound hand crafted presets could be CC-BY perhaps.ĬC-BY is also where I think a project file’s natural license would be if it’s open. If presets had licenses I think CC-BY would work well here. ![]() I can see sample packs or other kind of “luxury” samples requiring attribution though, maybe. CC-BY:Īny CC-BY samples would have to be darn nice. ![]() I’m not saying it’s not possible to get CC0 projects, and it’s great if we have them, but maybe not only CC0? I personally would only release as CC0 if I decided on it from the start, as in, ”I’m gonna make a song for other people to use”. They can use it however they like with no legal issues, sweet! As an artist though (This is hypothetical, as in if I were an artist), I wouldn’t want to give away any serious work. From a user perspective CC0 is the best possible scenario for anything. CC0 would also be suited to presets, but I’m not sure they have any license at the moment? I don’t think it’s an absurd idea that they could/would though. Crediting every person who made a sample you use would quickly get out of hand. I think CC0 is perfectly suited to samples. ![]() If anyone knows if it's possible to add spoiler tags or otherwise compress text please let me know. ![]()
