    Those are the plug-ins that come pre-installed (?) with PT, right? Have seen people using them in videos but the few times I've been using PT I have never used any of the Bomb Factory plugs!
     
  2. Why isn't the title of this thread, "Expensive software that's cracked but you still wouldn't use, but you downloaded it anyway?"

    Porn is online for years. Nobody needs space for it unless your connection is awful.

    I see that you now understand my post. I think it icky and gross that Kjaerhuus software would be in my possession as he coded all the plugins and his vibe is all over them. I imagine (not too visually, blurry and wayyy out of focus) that he might have been wacking off to some kiddy porn on his computer screen, and satisfying his aweful perversion went straight back to work typing shit in with same sick hand he had just pleasured himself with. He basically was the company and not just a cog in the wheel of a behemoth such as Microsoft. As soon as I found out it all went into Trash.

    He only was sentenced to six years in prison notwithstanding that...

    " A forensic psychiatric statement from Aalborg University Hospital, which was presented during the trial, states that he (Kjaerhus) admits to being a pedophile and that he is without guilt, shame, empathy and empathy with the victims".

    When the verdict fell yesterday (2017) the sentence was six years in prison.

    I liken it to some pizza maker who wacks off into his pizza sauce and you (not you) find out and continue buying his weirdness. Consuming is consuming is consuming.

    WOW !
    I go away for a day and there's two more pages... :rofl::facepalm:

    I skimmed through... no apologies for the skimming though I read a few... So on topic...

    I have only one thing of worth to add that has only been lightly touched on.
    Basically if whatever any one of you uses gives you a good mix then it's not shit, for you.
    If what you use makes everything you do sound like shit then if it walks like a duck...
    It doesn't matter what has awards, what Joe Public favours...it matters what works for you. I see no point otherwise...it's your studio. :)

    Cheers

    So it's lucky that they didn't say he was not guilty because he's mentally ill and that's why he won't go to jail.
    I think child molesters of this kind destroy entire lives (children, parents...) and are therefore no better than murderers. They should therefore remain behind bars for the rest of their lives.

    But back on topic: I won't even DL studio linked VST stuff.

    most of these companies have a useful plugin so I don't think you can categorise a whole company (unless paedophilic relations). not a big fan of slate but the VMR would be handy in anyones toolbox. the romplers will give you a quick sound that you can go and swap out later speeding workflow especially with a client. the capabilities of RX is second to none. even waves has nice SSLs, the MV2 etc. bruddas who say plugin alliance cmon... and for adobe, well acrobat is great at opening the manuals:winker: use what gets the job done best forget the politics

    Yeah. I misunderstood Your post. Yes. Sociopath and Pedophile.
    You treat software more physical than me. For me soft it's only command for computer consisting of ones and zeros.
    But if I imagine touching some objects which Sociopath touching. Yeah it can be bad energy around it.
    And I would prefer not using it.

    Yet also, ones and zeros aside, why put money his way for him to spend in prison for the rest of his life and help him?
    All energy is linked, regardless of what we perceive as physical.
    Hey @Lois Lane The reports also say he is the type most likely to reoffend if ever set free.
    So I doubt he will be.

    Topic:
    Nexus, Adobe products. But only because I work in audio, not in viz!

    While I think this is too lenient, my comment alone says why a legal system in place. Some call it a justice system, I do not believe it is... I tend not to call it a justice system because that's a perspective... Justice for who? The people at large? The victims? This is also why the epitome of the Justice system is a blind person holding scales trying to balance them. What determines retribution or justice? Not the population at large. The recent attempts in the USA on Pelosi and Pence show why a legal system exists... vigilantes are fueled by emotion not logic.
    There are those who believe the punishment should fit the crime. I have no idea what is right other than the world has not implemented a legal justice system that is flawless. Innocent people get convicted and people who commit sick crimes get sentences that do not prevent them from reoffending.

    It won't be fixed in anyone's lifetime here. Making the deterrent more severe, I am not convinced will do it either. The system is flawed.

    I don't trust online stuff. 1/4 of my favourite Youtube videos are gone.
    Good that I download some of them.

    As I said earlier that "This is also why the epitome of the Justice system is a blind person holding scales trying to balance them" - basically says it all about the world's legal system.

    Blindfolded, not blind, to remain unprejudiced and neutral. Whether true or not.
    The statue is symbolic and hardly can be seen as an epitome, unless sarcastically as you have.
    On the domestic level at least, what would you do without any legal system, eh bro? C'mon. At least human beings try to make things work. Nothing is perfect.
    The whole dynamic of the planet is flawed, so a lot we try to create IN this flawed system will always be flawed by default.
    Plus just under 90 people own the same wealth as the bottom 3 billion.
    And the whole of microbic life, above and below, and all of nature, and all of the animal kingdom, and all of the human race, and all of the universe, has this natural heirarchy and the dualism. Life and death are meted out by us, just as in the animal kingdom, and all other aspects of nature.
    After one sees this truly, then one can start to understand more.
    I know we all know of a better time, a better place, a better way.
    But it isn't prevalent here on this planet right now.

    edit: I hope it's obvious that I do know that the legal systems are just self-serving, corrupt systems that favour the bigger, corrupt system.
    But my point was they do still have benefits on a domestic level. Thnk about it.

    Definitely Nexus 3. I was really disappointed with ReFX after trying the new version of their plugin with some "purchased" expansions. Most of the presets from these exp's any of you can make in Sylenth or Spire or any other synth in five minutes. $4,200 for 20,000 shitty presets is a real scam. I really feel sorry for people who believed the ads and gave their money for this crap. Even their "live instruments" aren't worth the money. Check out Pianobook uk and enjoy life. Unique content for absolutely free. :winker:
