To be fair I've never heard Access actually come out and and assert their muscle about copyright, but from what I know about ROMpler synths which use digital samples as their basis (including talking with a guy who used to create samples [including many single-cycle waveforms] for all the EMU boards) digital samples are always protected by copyright. In this case the PCMs are intellectual data of Access, as they physically resourced and worked to create them uniquely.

Btw, I believe the sine-wave (along with the pulse, saw and possibly the triangle) in the waveform section is algorithmic - generated in realtime - not a PCM sample. The reason for this is that the sine-wave is often used as a modulation source, so waveform accuracy is needed at all speeds/rates.
