[cc-community] Remixes, covers?

Hello all,

I need help clarifying an ambiguity when licensing music under CC.
Wouldn't permitting derivations be implying a different use, depending
on what type of ownership the licensor represented?

For instance, it seems that an owner of the master recording could
permit remixes with a by-nc-sa, while it would take a composer
licensing a composition under by-nc-sa to allow cover versions.

Is this right?

Thanks,
