    With samples and presets you'll be caught in doing the same thing as millions like you. That's scary to me, personally.

    I totally agree with you. Once I have no money to really buy everything I use, I just made a PC to work offline

    haven't read the whole thread but i can tell you this much

    these are the classic thoughts that entertain a beginner mind, someone who hasn't accomplished shit yet but cant sleep worrying all night about the ifs of everything.

    the day you get going in a serious way about your business idea and actually finalize a product or at least have a clear realistic idea of what it is you are doing you will just laugh at these questions of yours, i can promise you this.

    so get on with one of all those things you name, each one will take your whole concentration and time, unless you are just playing around, then it doesnt matter really what you do.

    If I steal a gold bar and record somebody banging on it with a member of an endangered species while driving a van on the wrong side of the road...
    It won't have any bearing on the quality or otherwise of the music.***

    creating your music in the first place is what's important, you can worry about the rest of it once your stuff exists.:wink:

    ***hmm, now there's a thought.

    the amount of money they would have to spend on a lawsuit isnt worth it for them. I think companies like Imageline / FL studio understands the benefit of the "scene"

    What a morons company would go and check every piece of music on the world to find if VST's they made weren't cracked in one track or another

    Answer to you question is simple - there is no precedent in the the world.

    Nope! Apart from metadata tagging, you can drag the audio into iZotope RX and zoom into the spectral display and draw a smiley face or a code or something!

    making legal music is not even possible since weed is still illegal here ... basically only legal thing left is working for rich assholes. please follow the instructions of your local authorities and everything will be fine.

    As I explained on a different thread digital watermarking has become big business. There are companies that specialize in protection of intellectual property. Never heard of Digital Watermarking Alliance? Digimarc?ContentMark? IPSI? PromoJukebox? Blue2Digital? JWM? and the list goes on and on and on. By the way, the detection it is done automatically.

    Edit: Some of you may not realize it but some of the Vsts we have on the sister site come with factory libraries. In those libraries, the developer has the capability of implementing a watermark. Also there is technology that allows a developer to automatically imprint a watermark whenever a sound is produced by a Vst.

    VST can't watermark presets you just made of cracked software. And if everything else is watermarked, then why we don't hear that one or another music producer paid fine for using cracked soft? Should be easy to catch all those pirates on Soundcloud. I know plenty of you put there your own music. I do the same, the guys in black never visited me.

    If you "just made" them they are yours.

    It doesn't make any sense. If this scary watermarking crap is everywhere, then why put timebombs into the software :dunno:

    Oh I see. You mean, why not just put the software out with any protection, and then constantly look out for illegal use of it.
    Great idea.

    As long as you don't use copyrighted stuff you're okay. Stop worrying about watermarks. This watermark discussion has been going on in many different forums ever since the first computers could produce music - that's decades.

    Surely someone must've got caught and lost a case for using watermarked stuff during the 3 decades that we've been able to create music on computers, right? Haven't u heard of any case at all? Me neither.

    Yeah, if is that easy to catch with this watermarking feature, then why pay for extra protection, just watermark everything and put the scanner on Soundcloud, you'll double your income :winker:

    I'm not denying some big companies using it, but also I don't think that they would hunt you down because you've made one track with 30 sec watermarked sample.
