THE TRIBUTE

Sample Clearance Information

Thank you for purchasing this sample library. Please refer to the license included in this pack for the full license, legal terms and further details.

What am I able to do with these samples?

All audio materials are provided free of clearance requirements solely for use within independently released musical works. Licensees may commercially distribute such works and retain all resulting revenues.

When do I need to clear a sample with the creator?

Drum loop samples and all one-shot samples in this pack are royalty-free. Clearance is only required for compositions on major label releases or large independent releases where streams have surpassed 5 million. You will be required to split the producer royalties and publishing with the creator of the sample, along with co-production credit and a producer fee, which is the responsibility of the releasing label.

What splits can I expect on a major label clearance?

The sample creator will be due:

• 10% publisher’s share and 1% producer royalty for samples used ≤ 10 seconds.
• 15% publisher’s share and 1.5% producer royalty for samples used between 10–30 seconds.
• 25% publisher’s share and 3% producer royalty for samples used over 30 seconds.
