| Dear Sergey, Ricardo and Csound List Members
These samples are not legal. They are copyright 1990 Digidesign and
ProSonus. Barry and I were using them back in 1990 to test his original
looping oscillator algorithm. They were taken from my personal SampleCell
CD-ROM for these tests and eventually were put up by one of Barry's
students some years later. BUT, they are not public domain and they should
not be distributed over the internet - especially by MIT! I hope that the
link at MIT is dead or that someone at the Media Lab will correct this
situation by taking these files down from the Csound "samples" directory at
MIT (trumpet, bosendorfer, strings, guitar ... etc...) and deleting them.
There are many other sources for samples on the Internet. Check out the
Csound FrontPage for links to the free stuff. The implication has been
that they did some sampling of instruments at the media lab and this is not
the case.
Sincerely,
Richard Boulanger
