Yes. All samples have been pitched down. I'm not selling them so there is no copyright infringement.

If you'll forgive me: Bridgeport Music, Inc. v. Dimension Films, 410 F. 3d 792 - Court of Appeals, 6th Circuit 2005 disagrees.
Get a license or do not sample.

The important part is what caused this lawsuit. From any other story about the lawsuit:
In the two-second sample, the guitar pitch has been lowered, and the copied piece was "looped" and extended to 16 beats.

There was also the Vanilla Ice vs Queen & David Bowie deal. Vanilla Ice claimed that adding or subtracting notes might protect him from copyright infringement. It didn't. That mistake cost him four million dollars.

There's no shortage of inexpensive, legal ways to create all original loops and samples. If you have the talent to arrange things well then the next step is to start making your own parts for arrangement. Regrettably, pitch-shifting a sample of someone else's work is off-limits.
