author=HappyThanks ! I was just asking if the contest allowed the use of these sound libraries, since "copyrighted material" can actually mean a lot of different things in this context, but you replied to my question. :)
When you have bought licence to the samples you are using, you are not restricted by their copyright. The rule was meant to prevent people from using material they do not have rights for. When you purchase samples, it usually means you gain the rights to use them.
author=HappyOkay, I uploaded the .ogg version then. I was asking because of the "submit in the highest quality possible" rule. ;)
If you can make a polished mix and a song, I recommend rendering the song to a loopable .ogg. If you don't know how to build .ogg loop, or if your song will need further revisions and polish, then I recommend .wav.
Enjoy !
RMN Composer Introductions
Hello ! You can call me Ylmir. I am a french student in IT, but also a hobbyist composer during my spare time, for about 5 years now. I am a complete autodidact, and learned most of what I know through practicing - I know little to no music theory (sadly).
I'm interested in a lot of different genres, basically almost anything that could be used as a soundtrack, but mostly orchestral/folk music (sometimes hybrid).
I work using Reaper, with a lot of sound libraries. I also play the electric guitar and the piano, but I'm not particularly skilled - Basically just enough to record what I need to.
Sadly, since I don't have a lot of spare time anymore because of my studies, I'm not taking projects or requests anymore. But even if I won't be very active here, I planned to take part (if possible) to the Summoner Of Sounds challenges, and maybe the RMN Music Pack 2.
You can still find some of my work on Youtube or Newgrounds, but I'm not really releasing a lot of music anymore, lately.

Summoner of Sounds
Hello ! I have a question about the rules as well.
When I compose music, I use a lot of sample libraries I purchased, does it mean I do not have the right to use them for the challenge, even if I have a legal license ? Or is it only to prevent people from uploading something made with sampled music ?
Also, a lot of people uploaded both WAV and OGG versions of their tracks. What would you recommend ? Uploading both for users' convenience, or avoiding duplicate content by uploading only the WAV version ?
Thank you !
All works submitted to the event have to be 100% original work of the participants and must contain no copyrighted material, either compositionally or in terms of sampled sounds.
