Legal Definitions - digital sampling

Digital sampling is the process of taking a small piece of sound or music and using it to create a new piece of music. This is done by recording a sound or music and then using a computer to break it down into small pieces called samples. These samples can then be manipulated and rearranged to create a new piece of music.

Dignitary refers to a person who holds a high rank or honor. For example, a president, a king, or a queen. In legal terms, it can also refer to a person who is compensated for a dignitary insult rather than physical injury or property damage. This can include cases of false-light privacy or negligent infliction of emotional distress.

An example of a dignitary insult could be a false statement made about a public figure that damages their reputation. This can be considered a dignitary insult because it harms their personal dignity and honor, rather than causing physical harm or property damage.
