    Seems like Giancarlo is being a bit lenient.

    If real, I wouldn’t call it lenient. I’d call it scared shitless after R2R revealing all the bloat.

    how is this great news? pretty soon r2r will release the entire catalog. why support such a shit company with a shit leader? one of the products i'll be happy to use off the sister site over legit versions- you can go on gear space and read like over a decades of similar complaints about the asshat that is giancarlo.

    i hope this puts acustica under, i don't think it will i just hope. after how they abandoned the nebula developers, after how much time giancarlo has spent on forums instead of fixing shit, after how they preach about saving gear but really just mass produce this bloated catalog of buggy products to maximize profits.... yeah it's a gross company to me. terrible fucking customer service.

    but yeah- why not just wait a week or two and be able to use EVERYTHING they have to offer, many of the same type of products over and over again, all for about the same space on the harddrive as one legit library with protection? why go back to legit, except for updates because Acustica in general never releases anything correctly the first time. cause they do not give a fuck about you except to fleece your wallet with nostalgia bait.

    I'm a bit bewildered at how popular their stuff is on the sister site. I've always found Acustica stuff to be over-hyped and distinctly average.
    But, yes, that guy is a knob.

    Yes, it is real. He has commented this under a Facebook post. The purpose of posting it here was that one with a banned account may show the comment to the Acustica Audio support and maybe it will help him gain back access to his account.

    AA main problem is not the bloat (AA users are used to it since DAY ONE).

    It is the "WHOLE account banned FOREVER if Aquarius find a SINGLE suspicious file. So you loose all your money." attitude.

    R2R release is why he changed his attitude.
    Because now PPL KNOW all over the net his attitude and shady behaviour.

    He was already doing it for years ... but most ppl didn't known.
    Now they know :wink:

    And next time AA lock an account, he will loose 10 clients for each 1 client.
    Time for karma return.

    Last hopeful chance for Junkcarlo to get more goofs
    "Acustica generosity" is to treat own customers like scum

    "Use any cracked Acustica plugs and you're banned forever."

    "Well, I might as well try them and see what the hype is about. Hey, I like this! Think I'll buy it- oh wait, banned. Guess I'll stick with the cracks."

    "D'OH"

    Similar the the copy protection, the only people this policy punishes are existing customers.

    Junkarlo del Scamo has to be the undisputed biggest scam artist in audio plugin scene.
    the level of insanity and snakeoil lingo like sweet, tasty to define sound is on par with the "vinyl sounds better" cult collectors.

    Yeah the logic really falls tf apart when you examine it, doing that just ensures they never buy your products again. lol
