Let’s go back in time to the samples themselves, before the user Dirt圜ircuit produced a song with these samples and before Deadmau5’s response. Many users are nonetheless responding “good riddance” to the loss of sample content.” For a lot of people, the bigger question here really is artistic, and maybe it’s time for computer musicians to draw a line. No one is angry enough to dump FL, because it’s an excellent tool, but I sure hope Image-Line learns from the experience.Ģ. Image-Line seems to helped create the problem by shipping sample content in software without being clear which license covered that content and which is which, then responded with the inexplicable argument that that sample content was supposed to be for “demo” purposes only (with nothing that I can see to back up that statement, and evidence that precisely the opposite was the case). I’m going to ignore for a moment the question of how “that won’t change a lot” – people will be able to steal demo content even when it’s not there? That aside, there are two odd things about this story:ġ. The difference here is that this time it was stolen from a user that made it big. Our demo material has been stolen 1000s of times in the more than 10 years we have been doing this. We’ll remove all melodic loops from FL Studio to avoid this kind of stuff in the future but that won’t change a lot I’m afraid.
Managing Director Jean-Marie Cannie told that site: FL Studio developer Image-Line has not responded to a CDM request for comment, but they did talk to. The FL Studio community was rocked earlier this month as producer Deadmau5 claimed the use of his samples was “stealing,” even though these samples were bundled with the software and assumed by most to be licensed royalty-free. Deadmau5 roars, and FL drops all melodic content? Hey, whatever – FL users stay loyal to their app and it’s now BYO sample time.
