    I mean we never generated a version named 3.15. We don't use this convention. This way, you don't know even which bugs are fixed or not.
    Fact you can't understand even which version is, tell us everything.

    Really, not getting a joke tells you everything, but me standing up for you several times in this thread when personal insults were flying tells you nothing huh?

    ah ok sorry, I didn't understand.
    Yes I'm used to receive personal insults. It is the price I pay for creating software, and for trying to sell it and have a fulltime job. When I was creating software for banks (and this IS ethically a trouble) nobody was insulting me, ever. It is a crazy world

    @ giancarlo -

    But there are only some fixes and junk that we will remove.
    Do you love people to get rid of their trash and give them a clean version !?

    We are sure that the majority of users approve of our decision)

    Only MAC users need frequent supervision)

    What a waste of time if this is true (in my irrelevant opinion). I just want cubase
    the neve portico stuff too.

    your stuff is a waste of space and cpu

    Portico has been cracked a long time ago.

    Edit: I was wrong. Yamaha vintage collection was cracked by V.R.

    @Prinz Eugen


    All of our versions need constant updates, because it's a resource-intensive approach that requires constant intervention.
    Also what we do is going to improve, for example next year we will have on all products a better management in the phase in some sampling frequencies.
    You can rid the product of "trash" for a time or two, but you will be forced to deal with versions that will have even more trash because of this action, until it becomes humanly impossible to deal with. You know this is possible. So if products are being burdened it is precisely because of the countermeasure to crack, which as an effect is making some companies bigger (peace) and richer, and users' lives more complicated. Users would love invisible and basic protection, unfortunately crackers have created this vicious cycle. In all this we try to survive.

    I don't personally think constant intervention or tweaking is a good move in ANY plugin/program or rather anything. To me it just feels like I'm paying for pre-release/alpha/beta software. While, sure, plugins get updates that may improve it over time or squash some bugs, to me if I buy a plugin I expect it to work well as it is without feeling like I am buying several test revisions of it.

    OMG Giancarlo, you are way too stressed.
    But do you spend all day here or on the sister site?
    I understand the fear, but up to this point? Honestly, users here expect amazing, industry standard products, so maybe R2R hasn't thought of you. So maybe you're still safe for a few months.

    All of these are available on audio-museum dot com.

    I meant recent plugins.

    @ FLRIZDARKK -
    Correct understanding!
    All versions work at this stage and will work until the need and relevance expire, for many years)

    @ giancarlo -

    In this case, let it be one cracked product.
    witch's collection that works charmingly and always)
    but users can't update it, and you don't follow us!

    You can rest assured that you are safe when you are cracked and you can keep making money: "D

    Best Answer

    The original message was about something that happened, i.e. n4.
    Many people here are instead linking it to the upcoming crack release, and I have no reason to think it will NOT happen.
    My response is about that, that it is possible and of my point of view not avoidable.
    If it happens that's fine.
    If it doesn't happen that's fine.


    The importance is that we all agree on one point, which is that by definition it is not possible to make software inviolable. You can make the operation long or tedious, but you can't stop it.
    My point is that in any case it is sometimes very advantageous to have a legitimate product. We work daily to make it attractive to use legitimate products.
    Then
    - if you don't like the product, patience
    - If people don't want to use legitimate products, so be it.
    We try with constant work to change minds, and sometimes we succeed

    I believe you do, that's not my point.

    I was trying to say that you are waving a red rag at the bull by claiming that illegal versions won't perform as well as legal ones. As a reminder, you are dealing with a group that is prominent for improving the performance of cracked plugins and even fixing their code.

    Personally, I expect the Barbara Streisand effect now (just look at this thread).

    PS. Sorry for calling you a douche, that was unnecessary. I still disagree with your approach to the situation, though. For anyone capable of reading between the lines, your official statement reads like nicely-worded threat that you will DEFINITELY take your time when unlocking these blocked accounts (and in the process, will block access to legally acquired plugins as well). This is simply a low blow.

    Maybe you could try to look from his perspective. Instead a greedy perspective most people have.
