    Hi guys!
    Recently due to a search I stumbled upon this post at sister site

    https://audioz.download/software/wi...02170-legit-aax-unlock-only-internal-r2r.html

    and although it's an old post I've missed out at that time the word "INTERNAL".
    Does anyone know what it mean?
    Besides the word "ONLY" refers to "AAX unlock" so it means it's not the whole software cracked or refers to "INTERNAL" so it's only for internal use?

    I suspect that INTERNAL means something like "Inner Circle" but I've never heard of a such esoteric distribution and if this is the case I'm wondering how you can be eligible entering to this circle.

    Last I want a favor from an experienced member to make a request at sister site for the AAX Unlock for the latest version of Pro Tools because I have no idea how to do it myself. It seems to me a tricky request to post that I cannot handle properly (in case any team bothers looking at requests anyway).

    Thank you all in advance!

    PS. If I break any rule please delete the thread. Thank you!

    Could be several reasons for calling a release "internal".

    -original released for testing among "brothers".
    -old versions that have had a shine-up e.g. for a newer OS.
    -etc
    -etc

    Worst senario: Its a fake release

    AAX unlock on that release means you have to have a legitimate iLok PT license, and the only change to that version of PT is that you can use unsigned AAX plugins, as normally any AAX which have been "tampered with" will not load in legit PT. The licensing and all other aspects of that version of PT are unaltered.

    One could speculate that you would only be eligible to enter the inner circle if you were an elite reverse engineer with a proven track record, some well-trusted member of The Scene, or otherwise somehow friends with the witches.

    In other words: It will never happen. Witches release what witches decide to release. The only thing which may prompt them to behave differently is to supply them with softs which they don't yet have, but there is about zero percent chance they don't already have the current version of PT.

    Internal can also mean, lost race to an other group, respecting their work.

    @phloopy list is otherwise quite complete.

    The reasons were explained best by good ol phloopy. Whatever the reasons, "Internal" in warez means it is not meant to be released to public.
    Cheers

    Just a heads up that linking to the sister site (and other similar sites) is against the rules, don't risk annoying the moderators.

    Edit: tho ArticStorm doesn't seem to care or didn't notice it. lol

    makes no sense to put a rare and special mark on it.
    in the past you could always check rls log but mykal's partner couldnt keep up the site .

    The only thing "rare" about it is anyone outside of the group getting a copy of it. The implication is that it is leaked. UPAWG and other predb never show internal-only files because they are never seen outside of the group.

    fact is its a rare mark what you talking about .
    when funtime ,horsemen or deci upload an r2r internal you can be sure its from their fault .
    the stuff was internal isnt anymore but still have the tag . simple as that .
