Wouldn't that potentially relinquish future rights and royalties?John#911

You don't own the sounds, but are granted a license to use them as you will.
Sorry for the brevity as I am replying from a remote region of iPhonekstan.fritzdoddyI recorded an entire album with only Mellotron, Orchestron and Optigan and I have always thought that if you have bought the instrument you would own the sounds ?

Hello
I started recording some tracks featuring Mellotron, Optigan and Orchestron. Now, I was wondering, in fact, all these sounds are just samples - who owns the copyright on these recordings? In fact, can you just use this free?
I know that with the usual tron sounds nobody bothers and just puts them on their records, but it was in fact when I was using the optigan, where you have loops of recorded big band and such, at that point this question came up to me...
thanks
Dieter
