Is there obvious copyright infringement here? Those samples are not
for-sale samples you can buy to use royalty free. We're not putting
them up on another web site to sell cymbals and compete with Zildjian.
We'd be putting in the time (well, you have) to download them and
convert them to add to our non-commercial music.
I believe it's perfectly legal to sample a snare hit or an orchestra hit
from somebody else's record and use it in your own music. I think it
has to be a substantial sample to require getting the artist's
permission and citing the source on your recording. Isn't taking a
sound sample from Zildjian's or Musician's Friend's web site like taking
a sample of a snare hit or a cymbal crash from a Prince record?
Am I wrong?

I ripped 37 stereo (44k16) samples from the Zildijan
website (K and K
custom cymbals). It took... a long time, but I've imported the samples
into Halion and it sounds really good.
I'm willing to share my samples (regardless of the obvious intellectual
rights infringement here). If you're interested, I need somewhere to
temporarily put it up. The zip is 24 megs.
No, I'm not going to email this stuff. Don't even ask.
btw, the mp3's at musiciansfreind were all mono. That sucks.

If you go to any cymbal page there's usually
a sound clip or two on
the page. Even if you can't download these clips directly from there
you can usually find the clip on somebody else's page. For example, I
really like the sound of this cymbal:

You can find these same sound clips on a music store page selling this
cymbal, so here's the Musician's Friend page featuring those same
clips for easy download:
