    Does he thinx he's like avid or UA or something :dunno: What exactly has HE brought to the table that was actually truly unique and useful? This compressor thing is a POS one off and R2R threw him a bone and cracked his "major accomplishment" just for a laugh and now he thinx he's entered the "big time" because R2R did him a solid... The legit major corporate devs (and smaller devs as well) get paid by actual brick & mortar businesses, and certified online services who are required to pay for such things in order to comply with business standards organizations that police that kind of thing. Do you see WAVES, AVID, Softube, Soundtoys, UA, Eventide, etc, going out of biz because any of their stuff got cracked? NO. So this dude is now just ranting about crap just out of the blue and about shit he knows absolutely nothing about.. Once again... The "free gift" thing is just retarded. Did he include a CRC so his code could be checked for authenticity? NO. R2R INCLUDES CRC HASHES IN ALL OF THEIR RELEASES AND HAVE BEEN DOING SO FOR YEARS. Again he is talking out his arse. He so scared of malware...It borders on the pathological...Are there no proper virus scanners for apples machines? The one take away from the whole debacle is that the PLUGIN "curvature" is nothing special. Audio folk use compressors for pretty much one thing. This plugin sort of does that "thing" that folks need a compressor to do. I didn't see or more importantly hear anything coming from this plugin that I couldn't hear coming from 12 dozen others. :rofl: So much ado about nothing... Quite frankly this entire thing smells like a grab for attention by one of the biggest attention whores on yt.

    I can't really say if i like this guy or dislike because honestly he means nothing to me, but in a case where i find myself with him in the studio trying to finish job or Master a track ! He seems that guy that you don't want to be around or dare to ask him to revisit some stuff for you, i feel like if i ask him for a small task he'll immediately start arguing and proving how ignorant i'm :rofl:
    I really feel for his clients, if he has clients

    Did he remember to say, at the end of his video, 'Don't forget to subscribe and hit the Like button.'? I only got about a minute into it.

    Some time ago on KVR I half-seriously joked with Urs (Heckman) on his company's thread there something about him getting into the acoustic guitar business for when civilization collapses and the internet goes down along with it, and I just recently found out that he's peddling some kind of 'brick-and-mortar' unit called CVilization.
    It's not quite an acoustic guitar but, unless he's got a Star Trek replicator, at least the price (if, granted, in the current context) seems more inline with its actual/real costs and he can(/has) probably add(ed) his special-sauce software to it too.

    Electronic file-sharing issues got 'straightened-out' likely long before our friend in the video was born, or at least old enough to walk. If walking into a desert and expecting it to put food on you and your family (owe you a living) isn't working out so well, that's not the desert's fault.

    And now, and speaking of 'deserts', many into the creation of so-called art/music in the online context seem to be increasingly up in arms about AI. As or if it advances, we might hear (more) about AI plugin slop too, if we're still online.
