 From http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/legalcode:

"'Adaptation' means a work based upon the Work, or upon the Work and

other pre-existing works (...) or any other form in which the Work may

be recast, transformed, or adapted including in any form recognizably

derived from the original (...)"
In this context, I lean towards considering music that uses samples to

be an adaption of those sample.
However, the license is clearly written with remixes and combinations in

mind, where you either stay in the same category as the licensed work

(e.g remix music to music) or combine categories (add music to video).

It is no written for works that are meant to be "raw" material, like

fonts or sample-packs. In this sense, your question has no clear answer,

which is worse than a Yes.
