I would hope that what constitutes fair use could be left up to the individual authors' judgement, but, for the record, I think using just the waveforms should be okay (I wouldn't want to have to rule out using the factory OSCs, many of which include useful waveforms)- but using a complete or significant part of an OSC preset with OSC effects and modulation to make a patch obviously wouldn't be fair (and would probable be spotted and commented upon).Sendy wrote:What about people using osc presets made by someone else. In another thread, someone mentioned using one of my waveforms for their patch, which is cool by me, but what do the rules say?
Also, where using someone else's waveform, that waveform shouldn't be relied upon as the mainstay of a patch (for example, just sweeping through a wavetable) - a patch would really need to show sufficiently extra tweeking so as to be an author's own work.
