Hello everyone this is my first thread
I'm a mixing engineer and have 8 years of mixing experience. Recently I've been working in a new studio that have all kinds of expensive plugins and hardwares you can think of, and the plugins are legit!
So here is my question:
I don't own any of the plugins in this studio I just work here, but I know them more the guy that owns here. I want to open up a YouTube channel and teach these plugins in Turkish Language. So do I get in trouble if I don't own any of the plugins myself? (Recording them with OBS and uploading on youtube)
Can I get in any legal problem with the plugin companies? If I just open them for teaching purposes?
Also I have some cracked versions
What if I used the cracked plugins just to teach them on YouTube!? Is it illegal?

if you are using the ones at work that are legit, the plugin companies will not care, as long as someone has a license for the running instance they are happy. Your boss might care, but I don't see why he would if you work there and are not taking time from work to record your tutorials. You can throw in his studio name in a few places he will get some free advertising.

If you are using cracked versions to do your tutorials, that's technically not legal. Doesn't matter if you are teaching with them or trying to solve a 50 year old cold case murder. Whether or not you get into trouble is unknown as I am not familiar with the laws in Turkey.

 

make sure when your plugins open on screen they are registered with your name (easy to do) and most important of all.. just shhhh lol! most youtubers who make tutorials used cracks.

 

Thanks for the reply bro
I'm currently Living in LA so I'm in the US!
I'm Turkish and we don't have many Tutorials in Turkish Language that's why I'm taking this task.
Advertising my bosses studio is a good Idea thanks a lot. I just want to know will the companies find out if I teach with cracked ones so I can work at home

 

The Shhhh part lol cracked me up. Thanks for the reply.
But I don't know how to register the plugins in my name.

 

If someone is anal about it they might try to peek what the "licensed to:" part of the plugin title bar says during your video. If it says Team AIR, then they'll send you nasty comments about being a cheap ass. That's basically all you have to worry about at this point, so teach away.

Not all plugins even have a line like that in their GUIs, and if yours says some random name (studio's owner?), then once again nobody cares and least of all you.

 

I wouldn't recommend registering cracked plugins with your name when making public videos. Some developers whose plugins you'll be demonstrating might see your videos and check their database if there's a match, then they'll know your name too. Best bet would be using plugins that are legit in your workplace or any place you have approved access to (for evidence if needed), then make your videos at home using tryBeforeBuy -versions, but make sure those plugins shows reg-nfo only in a certain tab/column & avoid clicking it while making your movies. It's free advertising after all, so I don't think developers care that much, unless you present them in a very bad light.

 

Istedine yap. kardes. hic kimseye ilgilendirmes .

 

The only company I know who makes a little trouble (let's yt delete the videos ect) is Image Line (FL Studio). Never heard something like that from other developers. But if you want to use cracked software you should only use software where you don't see a license name in the plugin window, I don't think that any developer has the time to check on that. Even if there is some sign about using cracked software, mostly only some smartass yt comments complain about it.

 

You can use youtube's custom blurring option tool, to hide any parts of the image you don't want do be displayed.
Greets from Greece bro!

 

just send an e-mail to them before you publish on yt.. boyle bir kanal gerek Tr olarak kimsede yapmiyor, basarilar.

 

I know Imageline went after someone who was teaching FL Studio on his YT channel and he ended up publishing a big apology email about how he'd been using a cracked version and apologising and showing he'd bought it.

Anything showing 'Team Air' or similar on the plugin is often very easy to spot.

 

There's no way you're getting into trouble for using legit software in a tutorial.
Who cares who owns the software? You're just the spokesperson for the company who bought them.

In short, bişey olmaz hacı, yap izleyelim :P

 

well if someone will google your name, Enio Maka, after watching your youtube video , this page will come up probably, so din't use that name. but youtube is full of videos where bedroom producers make videos with tons of plugins in their arsenal and surely they didn't pay a dime for them cause they would cost 10's of thousands of $. only uad is untouched. you are safe i'd say.

 

What if the plugins were a car?

Are you allowed give someone a driving lesson with the car you don't own? Yes, if the owner (in case of plugin licence owner) agrees with it.

Are you allowed to do this with a stolen car? Have a guess.

 

keep using them keygens

 

if you don't plan to make money from those lessons, then it's probably okay,
if you plan to make money from those lessons, you should buy the stuff some day of course

 

teşekkürler kardeşim

 

Thanks

 

Helpful thanks
