It was always like this....since Radium days, until one day you understand what to do...test and download everything and collect all or make really music, don't forget that all these protection are killing everything, legit and not legit users for well know reasons.

 

I agree with you, the question is that not all are like you and me because we are all differently on everything (money.. professionals hobbyists).

 

hello to all, used to own a legit version of the Falcon and have also purchased a bunch of their libraries. TBH, uvi stuff is mostly sample based, they sound barely 'ok' and definitely not worth the asked price. They don't physically model stuff and their stuff does not sound unique. I have sold my Falcon ilok lincence about a year ago and i was trying to get rid of the other libraries i have purchased. I have phased out completely my ties to UVI and im more than happy to finally see UVI stuff being released to everyone! now you all can see how poor is the quality of UVI products compared to many other stuff we have already out and available on the scene. the UVI FORTRESS has been taken over and has now fallen. goodness bless

 

no model stuff? Did u never used model OSC?

 

I had to register and comment on this on. But I feel kinda bad reading this. On the other hand, I would never buy this software, and not because I don't like it, I just don't get the money for it. I use a lot of free stuff and that's good enough for me. But I understand what you're saying, I do have compassion for you. Some people say I'm a sucker, but that's the way I am. I really wish I was I in the position to buy your stuff, but I can't. Anyway, I wish you all the best!

 

Yes, I googled that too. But now 2021 not 2015 so no updates about a "purge samples" feature?

 

You buy a premium account.

I just bought a HyperDebrid account because it was one of the few that allows you to sign up with a VPN. Real-Debrid does not, plus others. It's about £5 or $6.50 for 30 days.

At the moment Rapidgator is down and even though Uploaded is supposed to be up and working, it's not actually working after spending some hours trying it again and again.

I would have bought an Uploaded account but they won't allow the use of VPN to sign up. Not sure about Rapidgator but that costs about £12 for the month and I'm really broke at the moment after spending all my spare cash on plugins on black friday. Hopefully HyperDebrid will come back online. I remember using it a while back and it was free and very fast. I imagine the uploaded servers are getting hammered right now.

I don't want much stuff, but I'd like to get the UVI Digital Synsations because I actually have TWO licenses for that that I got today by buying plugins at Audio Deluxe. Problem is they want you to have an ilok account to even download it. No ilok here. Not once.

It's a shame there aren't more download options for the UVI stuff, but with a bit of luck things will be available soon. HyperDebrid needs to sort their stuff out. If it's not working in a few days time I'll just buy the Rapidgator account, as long as they allow VPN to register and sign up.

===================================================

@acousticsamples, I tried to buy UVI Falcon a little while back in the KVR market place. It was a good price, just under 200 quid iirc, but when I found out it used ilok, I decided against it. It's a bad protection system that punishes the user. Same as Korg, their protection is an abomination. Same with Waves. I own quite a few plugins from both of them, but I won't be buying any more. I pay for all the software I end up using. Which is a lot. I only use Try and Buy to see if I like it, and if I do, I shell out the cash for it. Developers like u-he that have a more trusting attitude and very easy copy protection for the end user, well, those are the devs that get my money first. And any company phoning home like Melda or DDMF, even though I have bought loads of their plugins previously, I won't buy any more from them ever again, in fact. Same reason I would never buy a Tone2 plugin. Hopefully things work out ok for you in the end. I had never heard of you before despite owning thousands of pounds worth of plugins including high end stuff like Halion and Kontakt etc. so I'm not a noob, but the plugin world is a big place. If I do end up trying any of your stuff, I assure you I will buy it if I find a use for it.

So many companies have lost so much money by using ilok. I nearly bought a TC hardware delay controller today, but again, I checked if it needed Ilok. It said it didn't. But then later it turns out that you still need an ilok account even if you don't use the dongle! So I didn't buy it. There's Lexicon stuff I really really want, but no way with ilok. I own Softube licenses along with Akai MPC stuff I only use cracked versions, despite owning it for real. Too many companies to mention. I made an exception for Steinberg, but their protection system is nothing less than cancer even if they are moving away from it.

It's an age old debate but I'll leave it at that. I can't speak to any one else's motivations or morals, but that's pretty much where I stand.

 

Yup. Working perfectly on Win 7 here.

It works just fine in the regular VST folder for me.

Times are hard everywhere. You don't wanna be in the buggy whip game when someone invented the automobile.

 

ok so i've been trying to add my own owned banks but i cant get them to work, i'm pretty sure i'm doing something wrong but have no idea what

 

All Librarys are working perfectly but the Loading times are so heavy...

I´ve located the Librarys on an External HDD, but is there a workaround to make the loading process faster, like in Kontakt the Batch Re Safe method ?

 

you need to make sure you have UseiLokLicense set to 1 and dump them with DumpLicense set to 1. Once you do this for each library, you can turn off UseiLokLicense to 0 and DumpLicense to 0 and set UseR2R license to 1. Im able to finally unplug my iLok after generating the files for my legally owned libraries!

 

Well, this makes me feel like shit.

You're correct. It's theft, and hearing the myriad of excuses from some here only makes it worse.

If you're going to steal, at least be honest about it.

 

these people make these librarys for these overpriced products
these companys gough out the wallet to $0 for hobbists thinking they have a right to do so
so Yes lets steal the world with less impact on the user
