I would venture that if this dude did a remaster of the lsdj stock samples and offered the kits for free as a promo for his commercial sample pack, it would be cool with everyone.

yeah, but then the question is what other stuff has he sampled from for his for money sample pack?

Any samples I have put out for sale have been all my own work. I recently pulled a circuit bent Speak & Spell pack as I was unsure of the clearance of some of the non-bent original letters and phrases, that was an area of much debate, too.

But to me, and as has already been mentioned, if you've paid for the software, then surely you can use it as you please.

nordloef got it bang on what he said regarding the Roland samples. Guys who have put out packs of the drum sounds aren't giving Roland any royalties... However, if I could get in touch with Johan, I'd be happy to discuss a profit share, if this made it legit.

I don't agree with Alpine's opinion that it is damaging to the scene, I'm not targetting chiptune producers with my planned sample pack. But how would that be damaging anyway? I give away plenty of freebies and am not some commercial whore of a sample house.

It's for the guys who want some genuine chip sounds who don't get deep into chiptune using LSDJ, Nanoloop etc. It's easy access to niche sounds that I'm hoping producers will enjoy and get some good use out of. I'm sure they aren't going to be your rivals and sell out the chiptune scene!

also, for those concerned that this is somehow a thing that would require clearance for copyright reasons: if it were a problem, then anyone buying a tr-626 would need to clear it for every track they ever make with it through roland and it would make buying almost any software or hardware super silly...the only way it would be wrong would be if you were reselling samples you obtained from someone else's full tracks or official licensed sample packs (which are sold in a way which grant you a limited license to use them in your productions, not to resell the samples as-is)
