Copyright issues

[thedon]

Thanks everyone for chipping in.

Copyright law exists in order to protect another's original work from being reproduced without their consent.

Claiming non commercial use is no defence.

Duration of an infringing sample is irrelevant, so long as it's long enough to be identified. The case Bridgeport Music, Inc. et. al. vs. Dimension Films et. al springs to mind, involving a 3 note guitar part of 2 seconds duration! It's one of the more famous ones.

It's not only the drum part but the Ian Anderson esq type flute. If a representative of Kangoro is able to categorically confirm this project is entirely their own work and creation, then I can post my mix up without having to look over my shoulder

Just Wondering why would you even waste your time mixing this when you have a concern about copyright and not just pick another one of over 300 multi tracks then you won't have to look worry about looking over your shoulder ?

Cheers
