FAQ
HelloSamples has been clearly a beatmaker focused place, but we are sampler fanatics, synth addicts, Rhodes lovers, CV explorators… So, everyone interested in electronic music experimentation is invited to take a trip and explore our site!
This adventure began back in 2010 when we started up a blog focusing on MPC kits. With a basic web design knowledge we started to build the site and the beta version site began to run. Soon we added versions for Maschine, Ableton and finally we came with our first PREMIUM libraries.
Today we are proud to say we have brought more than 100,000 free downloads for you, several Premium Kits for Maschine, Ableton, MPC, presets for the Moog Sub 37, TE OP-1... but this is just the beginning.
Yes indeed! HelloSamples offers a Creative Commons BY-SA license for ALL the FREE STUFF. This license lets others remix, tweak, and build upon our work even for commercial purposes, as long as they credit us and license their new creations under the identical terms.
This license is often compared to “copyleft” free and open source software licenses.All new works based on our will carry the same license, so any derivatives will also allow commercial use.
HelloSamples is the owner and master licenser of all the products for sale on www.hellosamples.com. Purchasing any of these products gives you a lifetime, non-exclusive right to incorporate the sounds in any musical production.
You may not distribute these products, either in native or reformatted for use as samples, multi-samples, programs or patches in a sampler, sample playback unit, website or computer.
Finally, understand that this is a very little company. We balance this handicap putting a lot of efforts and love in what we do. Uploading our PREMIUM sound libraries to cloud storage services and spreading the links in warez communities is a way to slow down our work and discourage us to continue doing it. We hope you'll understand.
