Morphagene Extended Attribution - No Sale License 1.0 License identifier: LicenseRef-Morphagene-Extended-No-Sale-1.0 Copyright (c) 2026 vwal 1. Scope and ownership This license covers only the copyrightable original additions and modifications in the Morphagene extended project for which vwal controls the licensing rights (the "Covered Work"), including source code, compiled forms, patch data, website materials, documentation and their copyrightable derivatives. Ownership remains with the respective copyright holders; this license does not transfer copyright or claim ownership of another person's independent contributions. The Covered Work excludes the pre-existing work of Briskcat and the morphagene-mods contributors, other third-party material, and Make Noise's firmware. Upstream portions remain under their original MIT license, reproduced below and in LICENSES/Briskcat-MIT.txt. Nothing here restricts rights granted under that license for those portions, grants rights in Make Noise's firmware, or withdraws permissions already granted for earlier copies under other terms. See LICENSING.md for provenance and examples. 2. Permissions Subject to the conditions below, you are granted a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to use, study, copy, modify, merge, reproduce and distribute the Covered Work, in source or compiled form, and to include it in other works or products distributed without payment or other required consideration. You may use it privately, in education, in a business, or professionally, provided you do not commercially supply it as described in section 4. 3. Required notices and downstream distribution Keep all applicable copyright, attribution and license notices, including the notice for vwal and the upstream MIT copyright and permission notices. Identify your modifications without implying endorsement by the original authors. Distributions containing the Covered Work or a substantial portion of it must include this complete license and applicable third-party notices. For compiled software these may accompany the distribution in accessible documentation; for PDF documents they may be included as an embedded text attachment. Retain a readable copyright and license notice on the documents themselves. Printed copies of the documents must retain that notice and the no-sale summary; the complete terms may accompany them on a separate sheet or digital medium. Recipients receive the same permissions to the Covered Work under this license. You may not remove its conditions or offer the Covered Work under terms that purport to authorize the sales or paid supply prohibited below. This condition covers only the Covered Work, not unrelated, independently authored material. 4. No sales, paid bundles, paid products or paid firmware services Except as expressly permitted by section 5 or separate written permission from the relevant copyright holder(s), you may not sell, rent, license for payment, or otherwise supply the Covered Work or its derivatives in exchange for money or other consideration. This prohibition includes: - charging for a download, copy, access, subscription or update; - including the Covered Work in a paid bundle, software product, firmware product, or hardware product, including devices supplied with it installed; - charging for services that provide, install, build, modify, update or host the Covered Work or firmware containing it for another person. The prohibition applies even if you describe the Covered Work as a free bonus, assign the price to another part of the bundle, or require a donation, membership or purchase instead of a separately stated software fee. An unconditional, voluntary donation that is not required for access, delivery or a service is not payment for the Covered Work. 5. Explicit exception for Make Noise official firmware and products "Make Noise" means the manufacturer of the Morphagene operating as Make Noise, identified at https://www.makenoisemusic.com/. Make Noise may use, modify, incorporate, reproduce, distribute, sublicense and sell the Covered Work as part of its official firmware and official products, including commercial products and official firmware updates or services, without a license fee or further permission from vwal. Make Noise may license its resulting official firmware/products under its own terms, provided it retains the copyright, attribution and applicable license notices for the Covered Work and for upstream material. Its license must not purport to remove rights that upstream's MIT license independently grants in upstream portions. This exception extends to contractors and authorized distributors acting on Make Noise's behalf solely for that official integration, production and distribution. It also permits distribution and resale of Make Noise's official products and official firmware containing that integration in accordance with Make Noise's applicable permissions. It does not grant a general permission to sell this community release, extracted copies of the Covered Work, or third-party products containing it. For distributions authorized by this section, it overrides the no-sale restrictions in sections 2-4, including the corresponding downstream condition in section 3. Other applicable notices, third-party rights and license conditions remain. This is permission to Make Noise, not a statement of its endorsement or an obligation for it to use, support or release these changes. 6. Musical use and output You may use the Covered Work to create, perform, record, broadcast and sell music or other creative output, including in paid performances, recordings, lessons and studio sessions. Such output is not the Covered Work merely because you used this software to make it. It does not require software attribution or inherit this license, unless it itself reproduces protected code or documents. This musical-use permission by itself does not authorize supplying the software or a product containing it for payment. 7. Warranty and liability The Covered Work is supplied "as is" and "as available", without warranties, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose or non-infringement, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. To that same extent, its authors and copyright holders are not liable for claims, damages or other liability arising from its use or distribution. Rights that applicable law does not allow to be excluded remain unaffected. 8. Compliance and exceptions The permissions in this license are conditional on compliance with its terms; no permission is granted for uses that violate them. A separate written license may authorize an otherwise prohibited use, but only for rights controlled by its grantor. No trademark rights or endorsement are granted. Nothing here limits rights or exceptions that apply independently of this license under law. This is a custom source-available license, not the MIT license and not an OSI-approved open-source license. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Upstream license (preserved verbatim) Source: https://github.com/briskcat/morphagene-mods -------------------------------------------------------------------------- MIT License Copyright (c) 2026 the morphagene-mods contributors Permission is hereby granted, free of charge, to any person obtaining a copy of this software and associated documentation files (the "Software"), to deal in the Software without restriction, including without limitation the rights to use, copy, modify, merge, publish, distribute, sublicense, and/or sell copies of the Software, and to permit persons to whom the Software is furnished to do so, subject to the following conditions: The above copyright notice and this permission notice shall be included in all copies or substantial portions of the Software.
