Using the samples of the tryout versions within other applications is
against the license agreement, because you are not allowed to create a new
sampling library with it.

We will offer the PC versions in a few weeks. Also there is absolutely no
sense to use the samples with another sampler if we already give an
optimized software instrument...

All legal users complain about all the copy-protections with dongles, codes,
hardware, keys, ... and also about one 9GB large file on their HDD.
Sure we could have taken any kind of protection - and of course the final
versions will have - but has the time already come where we have to protect
even demo-versions and tryouts?
We offer FREE tryouts with up to 145MB sounds included. You are allowed to
use it even commercially. Take it, use it and enjoy it, but keep the license
and do not transfer the samples to other applications!
Best
