Steve Aoki uses cracked Sylenth1

[Devilsindub]

I think people that are complaining about cracked vst's are most likely people that actually paid for the software under the impression that they'll preserve their integrity and may just be bitter. It really doesn't matter. Nothing would ever stand in the way of my passion to create no matter how weak it is to torrent. Just food for thought.

I must agree in his case he shoul pay for the products if he has the funds. He should be supporting the companies that help him make his fortune. This way they can expand their sound libraries ect. Ect.....

It has nothing to do with being bitter, its a complete lack of respect for software developers. Also 'nothing would ever stand in the way of my passion to create' is dumb, you're basically saying 'I'd rather steal and make it as easy as possible than be creative and use the resources I have'. Theres loads of free VSTs and loads of free DAWs to start on, if anything its you being bitter and not wanting to be left behind just because other people are stealing it.

Interesting argument. Slightly taken out of context though. I agree with you 100% that downloading a bunch of cracked synths is uninspired to a sense if you really have no use for them. Yet, if you want to achieve a specific sound and that can't be done without using said exclusive synth while theoretically not being able to afford it, that shouldn't stand in your way. I don't advocate stealing software necessarily. I do think that demos are a great way to get familiar with the functions of the software. But demos only take you so far. With that said he should definitely be buying the generators if he has the money for it.

[Electric_Head]

That's a worse argument.

You can get by with freeware.
If you can't buy a synth then that won't get in the way of your music production.
If you choose to pirate the synth anyway just because so so is using it then that's pretty shit.
Talking about demos is also lame as I've said above.
Freeware is very capable.
But if you want to jump on the Massive wagon or whatever flavor of the day is then don't come complain here when folks bitch because it's cracked.

There are other alternatives and arguing for pirating is really a bad look.

Not having a softtop is standing in my way of having bitchiz, I'll take manz softtop, test driving only takes me so far.
You're a numpty.

[Dead Rats]

You should pay for the stuff you use. I don't think you can really say anything more than that.

Never really thought of the freeware aspect. You make a good point.

I can almost forgive you doing it though, your net worth isn't 28 mill and you're not a world famous "producer"/"DJ".

How else you gonna save p for 30 quid socks?

[Terpit]

Talking about pirating software should get people a ban for a few days IMO (more, hopefully), it doesn't look good for the forum and might make these twats go away

[ezza]

why are you so against it lol?

it affects you in no way

[Terpit]

Apartheid didnt affect me either but I still think it was shit

[Pedro Sánchez]

Some of these software developers are small independent companies not floating on the stock exchange, so they need all the revenue they can get or you don't get to play with there warez.
