Thread already locked by FB. Make sure to take Screenshots of critical discussions on fb for reference.

 

Here is a screenshot of what started the thread and I've tried to attach the video, included in a zip file, but the forum doesn't seem to allow .mp4 uploads (including within zip files it seems as i just get errors?!).

 

Not the first time either.

I've never used any of their project files but apparently they do the same with turning whole song arrangements into templates.

Then again, this could just be guerrilla marketing.

 

Fuck cymatics. now they're about to open a portal for remix contests. think of how many songs they're going to steal and turn into templates now. Make all that money off the kids give them a pair of sh1tty rokit 5s or a bumper sticker theyll be happy

Paid seamlessr for monthly for a shout out endorsment and then pull the money after the "shout out"
WTFux going on here?????

 

Old but still funny (kind of debatable, but the one at 0:40 is suspect)

 

if ur not good at stealing, better leave it to the pro's

 

I posted the links from the OP on their FB page, they took em down, lol
And then I received a mysterious call to my google number (it was listed on fb) from Georgia, US. Hmmm coincidence?
Maybe I won some rokit 5's ROFLMFAO
I bet theyre trying to get their stuff pulled off of the sister site. No prob, spam torrents of it all then

Wow..i never knew much about this company as i never download their stuff...but if this is true, how sad. Pathetic even. Lots of complaints I see on these guys.

 

They say they spend thousands on recording new sounds, it's really unfortunate that they smash them with OTT afterwards.

 

I have just done my research today. I think they are making samples

 

Making/Stealing/Robbing. Those words are interchangeable to them it seems

 

Dede we should totaly steal from them and make some sample packs. I wonder whether Cymantics or Virtual Riot or Veangeance would sue us

 

Lol, That is the best idea I've heard in a while, Lol. Steal stolen samples, the lawyers would explode. I would just give it away for free.

Such a Robin Hood, this guy.

 

Yup they most definitely do.........
Steal, rob, strong arm, and jack other people's content.......

 

Nothing digital is original even if you're the first customer.. it's an easy thing to remember. The people who buy it should care less about the origin. And the originators should keep it to themselves if they hold it so sacred.

 

I remember crooks selling stolen samples already in the 80s with the Akai S900 or S950, absolutely nothing new about it, actually the thieves even claimed it took a long time for them to ripoff the stolen samples so their hard work deserved a fair price !

Problem is, we should blame the guys actually buying sample packs.
They've created this whole industry, they're the ones seeking shortcuts to balance for their lack of talent and skills.

And I'm not surprised about sound designers being scammed, next time read your contract before signing. this too happens too often everywhere. what were they expecting working for well known shady companies ? too late, and lesson learned.

If you think shaming Cymatics is going to hurt their business, think again.
At worse they will close down and rebrand themselves the next day selling the same shit with different bundles.

 

Just want to point out the hilarious irony of people getting bent out of shape around "Here" about someone stealing content.

Reminds of the Dylan line "To live outside the law you must be honest."
