    I just added this comment

    on his youtube channel

    2

    Comment # 1 was :

    next time for your demonstration please use a real crack by a famous group to show real stuff not pre-arranged with CMD on win computer I can monitor any connection not all cracks will do what you talk about because some group are not into maliciousness but rather music themselves be aware the truth exists and not everybody will have access to it espacially if they love their own ignorance


    and comment # 2 is :

    not sure if a plugin dev should host a youtube channel I would have better confidence in his capacities since he would rather spend his time on coding reall cool stuff like this guy does and when he dares do youtube it's for tuition and sound theory rather then bashing over other people stuff etc... good luck bro https://psychocircuitry.com/

    LOL! What’s even funnier is all of the comments from people agreeing and claiming they got malware from cracked plugins. Really??

    Damn!! Does this mean that I now have to stop producing club bangers on my super secret shadow government issued laptop? I guess that I'll just have to stick with Wordle.

    Edit: Nobody seems to have had the want or gumption to actually crack the dudes plugins as per looking on the sister site.

    same sh*t goes on everywhere , this guy could be right , lottsa money to be made in the compressor VST fx business , and only so many plugin devz like U-He PluginAlliance Arturia , most folk wanna make them $1000 into a $1001 , them aint gonna give an f if you stay at $0

    i remember years ago i sent one of ma masterpieces to a competition run by some Philarmonik of Prague site like Vi-Control , them was gonna choose which traxx was gonna get remade redone remaked and played with a live orchestra by some famous maestro , anyways i sent ma piece there and folk loved it , but some b1tches from one of them $25k a year tutorship Music Production School Tutorship Students wanted to circlejerk each other off and them voted for each anutha and said ma traxx was garbage , anyways long story short the good lord be watching over us so even tho i lost in that contest because of them students the Prague Orchestra chose my ghost production too and made me a good deal too ,

    "there be a saying where u hear lottsa words n promises better go with a small basket" i learnt to hold no basket wherever i go years now since a youngin , seen lottsa bad evil stuff goin on , this guy could be right , some folk instead of juzz advertising their plugins they go and downvote and give u dislikes on insta and other review sites for a livin , lottsa sweet $$$ out there folk and it aint fo tha share , it whoever gets to it first , juzz like in tha jungle , u aint juzz find piece of meat hanging around trees ready to get served to yo belly now do ya ?

    peace out folk

    unfortunately a lot of people fall into the category of people who can't tell the difference between a reliable source and a shitpile of a website solely made to distribute malware, so they 100% end up with nastiness from a 'cracked plugin'.

    That's because no one gives two shits about this idiot or his so-called plugins. Seems most of his YT stuff is about some sort of "calling-out" or "scam" based bullshit. He what is known to the media world as a "crackpot" or wearer of a Tin-Foil hat. Somehow he has deluded himself into thinking his 42K subscribers believe he is some sort of audio god. Nothing could be farther from the truth.

    There are more than those two options. Any site that does not do every upload themselves can get tampered files, for an example. If someone notices something, of course that will become known by others; but is there some team of people on every site downloading and dissecting every upload? If not, stuff can get through to users. That is a byproduct of the site, not its sole purpose to exist.

    Love those witches—jokes are pure gold, even if nothing ever be released!
    They made publicity for the poor guy—maybe now someone will actually use his plugin

    Wait, R2R did his plugs already..

    I´m not throwing the rock at the guy btw, i´m a bit shocked as it seems like we live in a alternate reality which i wasn´t see it coming back in like 2010. Even if i find some ytb tutorial from 2014 or ´in the studio´ people seem so much more polite and at ease, now everything it turned into money pit, just cash in anything, or the fact that everybody has this tamagotchi glued to the face, me included.

    It is kinda peanuts.

    Nobody went "quantum" to figure out next stage in the plugin development, GUI wont mix it 3D.

    Can´t we just hook up neve1073 to a nvidia cluster in parallel and let it make a perfect replication or something rather than having 300MB heavy plugins that are more interesting than the Hollywood cinema(or games) at the moment.

    His ‘most advanced compressor in the world
    uses knobs that are API’s signature design—and they don’t mess around when it comes to protecting it

    I wonder how close they really need to be before a nasty email arrives. Maybe he will find out when the industry get around to reporting him. It is a very slow moving conspiracy.

    Maybe he did it on purpose, so he can say: Aha! I told you they conspired against me!
