After reading the GPL, I came to the conclusion that the non commercial 'addon'
isn't compatible. Now I'm no lawyer but if thats correct, LinuxSampler is
violating the GPL. Thus, any use of LinuxSampler would be illegal.

IANAL etc etc but surely you can't combine GPL'd code (whatever
version) with Linuxsampler licenced code and then distribute it? If
the combined work were allowed to be used commercially this would
violate the Linuxsampler licence, but if not allowed then this would
violate the GPL licence.
