Something to get you started

i suspect its sort of r2r circle
----
BTW ....for the sake of truth ,something i know its a fact is that gouda was a dutch(surprise) guy (RIP) ,but cubase5 was a straight team effort , but they didnt want to correct the www warez southing dynamic gossip and give him his fame .
i kno this from the dude who wrote the steinberg air keygen , someone who didnt found or had a
cozy or warm welcoming time in this forum .
BTW2
TEAM AIR and many other were not in involved in making music , they were straight coding nxrds eerrrm specialists .

And somewhere to learn and practice

Or he might just invent the next big social media app and make a billion $$. During the course of founding the social media company and after screwing over everyone he ever met, they will all come back and sue him for everything he has.

...or not..

 

Some A/v apps have specific key gen profiles released thru their definitions and target them that way. A lot of (but not all) keygens are wrapped in some sort of obfuscating code wrapper with the intention of keeping the code away from prying eyes. Many a/v apps look for these kinds of wrappers because virus/malware coders obfuscate their masterpieces in the same way in order to inflict as much damage as they can before detection. Hence the false a/v positives that keygens generate.

 

Computer science and software engineering is academically interesting, but it is a very tedious process. Music composition and construction is far more rewarding.

 

befriend with the TEAM

 

DIMA and his pianoteq rls was crazy back in the day...
vr finding a backdoor until next update of i think it was autotune was a wtf too...
r4e and his imo most solid of released serum releases is absolute the shit....

but it should be clear that the gap to air or r2r is more than huge...
i would wonder if its just autodidact knowledge basis they appropriated .

EDIT but i know a dude from my small town truly autodidacting coding 25 years ago in his early twenties or even below and now lives in monacco working for some fancy company ...

The first option was our good friend or friends tcd, which I was going through in my mind that they must be among the names and it was my fault that I forgot.
TCD, you are the best , I want your help, how to learn software security from basic to advanced

 

In fact, my goal is that all the dear friends I mentioned
With their many years of experience in teaching from the basics, I think they can teach good students in the future from this music community and people who work with plugins.
They can record the courses in several video sessions and make educational videos with a series of text-to-speech software.

Of course, I know that this is a music community, not security and hacking, but since we are working with plugins, maybe some of us will be interested in this part.

And of course, I also know that maybe the people I mentioned, or I should say audioz avengers (R2R, VR, BUBBiX, BTCR, r4e , vkDanilov.
MORiA, Audiowarez, bobdule, TEAM HCiSO, TCD), are bored. Of course, some R2R witchers are lazy

 

Remember that what you write here can be seen by everyone in the world.

Or maybe they have real lives and bills to pay, and don't sit around all day simply waiting to supply you with free software and tutorials?

 

r2r can crack every audio software they just dont want to release the top softwares people provide with licenses they can do it probably the most wanted software they could crack it in 30 minutes but for some reason they wont release them

 

guidedhacking dot com
go have a look here. Huge resource.
The methods of creating cheats for games and defeating protection are not too dissimilar

 

I figure people must have a lot of time to spend if they believe it will be easy to understand decryption and mathematical sequences. It's evident you'd need to completely understand these for the heavily protected applications. . Maybe they should look those two up. Sure there are a handful of people in the world like John Nash who just see it like we are talking, perhaps they're on here? Who knows? Nonetheless, it's not simple - unless someone makes an app that already does it for you. A keygen is a good example of not having to make your head hurt learning how to make the keygen and why most AV's block it.

 

Yes, I know that everyone has their own problems in life
And I even give them the right that they don't like to teach their knowledge to anyone
They are all respectable for me

I just made a request
Of course, I also got the basic ways through friends who told me where to start

 

R2R software that can be updated for free. It is not available to everyone
R2R takes the side of audioz users as well as companies that work fairly
For example, the reason R2R fl Studio does not crack is that the software is purchased once and you can update it to new versions for 24 years for free.

This personal opinion of mine may be completely wrong

 

They have had many years of learning not teaching. Not everyone who's good in learning is good in teaching. It's a profession of it's own.

You have to differentiate a bit in what these different teams do. R2R and VR are real crackers and R2R in particular has many years of experience. Occasionally they also help younger teams via readmes if they want to.

Other teams/crackers have taken one individual program or groups of programs where they know the security system and can crack it. But they do not work universally, r4e (NI apps), Audiowarez (Ableton Live).

vkDanilov is actually just a packer. He takes other people's Adobe cracks and then packs them cracked into an exe file as a portable app that contains a virtual file system to run programs (partly) encapsulated... only rus/eng. A normal user could do this.

So you could look into this to get into the mindset. Thus it's a good starting point.
In the best case scenario, the program is completely encapsulated so that it runs in an isolated environment (including virtualized hardware infos like processor version, stepping, serials, mainboard IDs and specs, LAN MAC adress ...). This enables the packer to transport programs including authorization(!).
Just look for programs that could produce '0ortable apps'. There are freewares up to very expensive systems (but as most of the time you can get K'd versions ofc)
Just a short list for you to play with:

Search for:
VMWare ThinApp: https://www.vmware.com/video/6348418020112
Turbo Studio: https://turbo.net/studio
Some general infos: https://carlcheo.com/portable-app-creators

There are myriads of instructions/videos online how to create a portable app. This makes you neither a cracker nor a programmer but it may be the first step to get into the mindset as mentioned.
