Glossary

Sample

Sample – A sample refers to a small bit of a sound recording that is reused in a different composition. Sampling often includes melodies, loops, beats, or vocal phrases from existing recordings – it can also include spoken word in the form of recited poetry or speeches.

To legally use a sample, the user must obtain permission from the original copyright holders. This involves both the master and publishing rights.
