No... it is a well established right to be able to make sample sets from acoustic instruments. Sax, strings, pianos, Rhodes (but if you use brand names, you have to sometimes pay the manufacturer a fee - after all, you are leveraging their brand name to sell your samples)
Ummmm are you saying Rhodes isn't a brand name? I think it most definately is ... there is no question about that. It was owned by CBS and now is owned again by Rhodes Piano who are making the current generation of Rhodes electric pianos.
