old version

 

Dear synthmaster

I have loads of audio software that I´ve actually payed for. All the stuff I´ve bought has been based one "Try before buy" ... in other words: I´ve tested these applications in cracked versions! If I release something from my "studio" it´s always based on the software I´ve bought, never cracked software - FINAL! .... So .....

STOP pesting this place with your statements:
The business is plastered with really bad made software and bad demos, so you only chance as a costumer to have a realistic view into these matters it to go for cracked versions!!!!!!

 

I track referrers to my web site, and noticed the above link as a referrer.

 

8000 manhours yeah right 7950 in the pub or on internet pornsites and the other 50 for coding

 

We do not steal we borrow we give it back later PROMISE

ok... where to begin...

1) if this is professional, where are the video tutorials or demonstrations?
1.1) if it's not professional, why should we even bother buying it?

2) why buying this over another "professional" synthesizer (price is not an argument)

3) do you offer full support and if so how, forums, email?

4) why talking about stealing while you are stealing things as well?
note: i am afraid of making a list here of all the things you stole, so i won't destroy
your business with that info, so dont worry

5) do you even have knowledge of the things you are advertising?
maybe that's why there is no help section...

6) what is the deal with the academic version? how does that work and
why call it academic? why would one buy the standard if he can buy
the academic for less, if there is a difference, well, it isn't stated
on your website...


7) for the system requirements, how did you came up with those anyway?
are those minimum or recommended, why 1GB of ram, your software doesn't
look heavy on resources... if it is, well, you didn't state it, unless you
assume that everyone knows computers and what RAM is?
that screen resolution is definitely not needed, less is also possible than that resolution

8) does it provide any documentation in full (quick start guide is not what i call
documentation)? if not, how does one have to work with this? trial and error?

9) "We hope SynthMaster 2.5 really becomes a useful tool for every musician on the planet"
did you came up with that all by yourself or did someone help you?

10) why didn't you write anywhere on your website that it took more than 8000 hours to do this?
i can't find that info, it might be interesting to put that no?
and are you sure it's 8000? who knows, maybe it's 7940?

unless you clear those points I mentioned, i don't see any reason why
would one buy your software. in other words, you are stealing our money
for some poor software.

and like some of my colleagues mentioned here, there is no way to stop
the hacking/cracking scene, so deal with it or surrender.

and don't try to fix those things i mentioned and THEN reply to my
message lol

so anyway, if you can, try to reply to those, if not, dont worry, i understand ;)

 

in fact i said probably,not surely,and i said that if u get an income from what u do it s right that u pay for what u use

 

I buy the software I use. I just don't have 30 days to try out stuff since this is a "hobby" for me. That said, I have no use for your product and haven't even considered downloading it. To tell you the truth now that I see this coming from you will never considered it.

Just so you know, I'm a software developer my self just not audio. Like any industry, either you adapt and survive or you die like a dinosaur.

 

actually people don t u consider the struggle between legal and cracked software a metaphor of the food chain that is the key of evolutionism?

 

Well, I personally have no interest in Synthmaster anyway, so one less download to worry about.

I've been using warez for 15+ years now.I'll never stop until it's absolutely impossible to keep doing so.All of you should know by now that unless you use heavy duty stuff like Syncrosoft or iLok2 you're gonna get warezed.

why would you think you would be exempt? Didnt you do any research before getting into the software business? There are many companies who have their products warezed ,and have from Day One like Native Instruments that are still successful because their products are so good.

Waves has been cracked on and off since at least vers 2.x, Sonar since the 90s, Ableton Live since Day One...I could go on and on.I know there are many people who have bought these company's products because they are so good, after using the cracked versions to try them out.

Quality always rises to the top.Build an excellent product and you will suceeed, piracy or not.

Someday, maybe, it might be impossible to use warez.Until that time, this is the world as it is, not as you wish it was.

Build something amazing, and awesome, and you could be very sucessful.I and many here hope you do someday. You'll realize that warez is also very good advertising for new products, because if something is great, word gets around very very fast.

Either that, or consider a new line of work. Your choice.

 

wow, well said man, cheers!

 

That's right.

I have been producing music the last 19 years. Started with Steinberg Cubase (cracked obviously), since I was only 14 I obviously couldn't pay for it. Anyhow - I kept using the program and 5 years ago, I bought Nuendo (very expensive, but yeah I did it, and I felt good about supporting the company that "kickstarted" me in the music world).

I have mentioned it before (in other posts), but since you can't afford expensive protection systems (dongles etc), why not look at other business models, such as Donation based payments? Make your plugins available for free, and have people donate if they like them. Like the wordpress community do with plugins... and TAL with his Juno-60, SH-101 emulations. http://kunz.corrupt.ch/

Maybe it would be nice to have him join the conversation, to let us all know how well it works for him? Do people actually donate, I don't know, but it's def. worth looking into.

Lastly, I rarely hear musicians talking about music piracy anymore... I guess, we have had to accept the truth that music can't be the sole source of income, but combined with Touring!!! it can. In other words, we have had to find another business model as well.

 

plz stop fellaz my tummy hurtz now

 

Adapt or die.

 

Fallaz come on the words "hard working" deserve some respect. And I can understand he's pissed off the trouble is the law doesn't protect ordinary people enough. Someone stole my bike worth $1200 and what did they say "we can't do anything about it"..fu**n rubbish. this is like being lent a bike and riding away with it i'd be pissed off if i am the shop owner too.

all i can say is we all got to work from the top down to fix these kind of problems, not the opposite..start with the pope and his 850,000 churches worldwide then hit americas corrupt churches, then other corrupt charities, then wall st, then hot shot bankers, politicians, governments, then mafia and other crims etc...

>the pattern...the crims at the top create the crims @ the bottom eg. an illegal downloader..but one gets in trouble and the other does not. work it out for yourself who the worlds biggest moron is, that is the one who's stealing billions in money from every nation of course it's so simple.

BTW: i have half a packet of spaghetti to last me 4 days cause our unemployment gets higher every day..i guess if i got black market spaghetti and other food i would be happy in some ways. these cracking crims are actually the ones i look up to, i shouldn't have to but i do.

 

as said before it's the quality of your product that will make a difference not piracy... which is actually a free (and maybe the best)form of advertisement!....just take the case of Reaper...it's a cheap DAW, there's basically no need to crack it ...and yet a lot of people actually end up buying the licence ...and more interestingly, as we saw here already on several occasions, some warez users even complain when they see it being posted!!...I'd say that's quite an achievement for that company!....so ponder on that great synthmaker and go back to coding something GREAT that is worth cracking...then only will you survive in this world! *yes*

 

I'm going to bring something up, and I'm being completely serious... How long until the technology exists to actually pirate real, physical, non organic stuff? I'll say maybe thirty years until the technology exists in a lab to digitize the atomic structure of something and recreate it, maybe 100 until it's commonplace in the home? Any thoughts on that?

 

i hope people share my music........no i hope they don't.....erm no i hope they do.........no i hope they don't.....erm no i hope they do.........no i hope they don't.....erm no i hope they do.........no i hope they don't.....erm no i hope they do....
