@z80 No problem, just to clarify since my first post wasn't too clear (in case anyone else reads this thread and is confused):

You CAN release a HISE plugin, even commercially (for money) without paying for a license, but you must provide everything the end-user needs to build the plugin if they so desire - that includes source code, images, and yes, samples.

So in your particular case, unless you have permission to re-distribute the samples as GPL, you'd probably want to get a license, or look for another tool to make the plugin (like SFZ) :)

Yes, SFZ may be an option, since I've worked with the SFZ format before, and there's some player for common OS.

I appreciate again your time!.
