Dongle Crack for SX 2

[Blue Bear Sound]

Who are you to judge? give me a break.. i bought a real version of nuendo but i downloaded a ton of vst's... where does that put me.. let people do what they want.

It's not a question of "judging".... it's that the people who use cracked s/w come on these forums expecting help. That's where they cross the line, IMO.........

They can do what they like, but I personally don't believe in using pirated s/w, so I refuse to provide assistance that would aid and abet their actions....... obviously, there are many that feel the same way as I do........

And I know this goes against the current younger generation's sense of extreme-entitlement, but no one OWES them any help or anything else, for that matter........

I also agree with you, in that you don't have to help those with cracked software. Especially on this forum because this forum probably doesn't allow discussing cracked software (other than questions like this thread of course).

I don't know about not "owe-ing" them help. I mean I'd help out people with cracked software, but that's just me. It's just a matter of personal views on this issue. But I agree that in this forum, those with cracked software shouldn't receive the same help with those that actually bought it.

Must be that sense of entitlement I was talking about... why are they owed help? Simply because they exist????

No one coming to this forum is owed an answer, period - crack or not.... the pros here are essentially donating their time and experience for the benefit of novices, they certainly don't OWE their experience to some asshole with a pirated load of stuff they know nothing about and put zero effort in obtaining...........

not to change the subject a little but how the hell are these file sharing programs/companies geting away with having cracked software being shared on their program?

 

[Phildo]

Don't know whether anybody's mentioned this, but moral, legal & ethical reasons aside, there are more prosaic reasons for not using cracked software - like reliability. Surely it makes sense to commit your meisterwork to an official and fully-functioning environment rather than one which might just collapse and burn out at any moment?

Worth paying the cash for the peace of mind, I'd suggest...

Considering how my legal versions of SX3 and Sonar 4 crash, freeze and go silent regularly that argument does not impress me. Well, I know it is not due to using a cracked version, but ...

And yet my fully-legal versions of Cubase, Sound Forge and others are rock-solid.....

If you think a crack somehow increases stability of a program, then you seriously don't understand the nature/workings of computer s/w......

 

[Pinachi]

Come on people lets use some common sence here,this generation IS expecting everything free if they can get it! And no one owes anyone anything,especialy the one with pirated software.

My friend came over to my house with a stolen car and asked me to fix his brakes.................??????????? Ring any bells?

Blue Bear,
The argument was made that legal programs were reliable, and I responded to that. Well, only this weekend SX 3.1 with dongle and all couldn't play a downloaded GM midi file. After 5-6 loops it loses connection with my sound module. No one in Cubase forum has given me any solution to this problem. So I switched to Sonar which worked perfectly with the same file and setup. Nevertheless, I have other problems with Sonar. In fact, I bought SX3 because Sonar used to crash with my UAD-1 card. So the claim that legal programs are reliable makes me laugh. I have actually spent extra money because of unstable legal programs. The only thing I can be sure of is that the failure is not due to the crack.

.... and then there is the so called PACE protection. In that case I have been told that cracked vst's are more stable than the legal version. Do a search on PACE.

Tom, it sound like you have serious problems with your computer that the software can't be blamed for, and in this area almost everything may be a problem. Take your pick: Incompatible mainboard / RAM / video card / sound card / LAN / USB-ports / virtually any piece of hardware in the computer...

I got a new computer in February. It was horrible unstable until I got a new video card, and is now completely rock stable (knock on wood).

I am absolutely amazed at the character, or lack there of, of those of you people who even remotely try to justify ill gotten software or music for that matter. You people are simply pathetic. What even amazes me more is the fact that some of you even show a certain level of intelligence in your posts.
To me .... that is no sense of societies concept of normal decent morals. It's just your ridiculous way of not accepting your guilt.
Obviously the software is out there and easily obtainable via download, but the consensus of ... I'm not hurting anything, because if I don't do it many others will anyway ... is totally unacceptable.

Do what you feel you must and earn the respect you deserve. None from the decent and honest.

Ditto.......btw I was the forumite that said theft was theft.....God knows what you do and there is no " ok " stealing!

 

[jpw23]

I pirate alot of music and even some software. I'm using a pirated copy of Windows XP. I can't download any service packs.. but meh.

I have a pirated copy of Cubase SX that I use. When I can actually afford it, or find a used one, I will buy it. This does not justify what I am doing.. but whatever. I also only use freeware plugins.. heh. Not that it really means anything.

I'm an asshole for it, and I know it. I just can't afford anything. Pirating is an easy way out of paying for stuff.

I am looking into getting a legit copy of XP. I'm not sure how I'll afford it. I am also looking into a used copy of Cubase.

Sorry to everyone who cares..

Give up your internet connection for a while....hell, give up cable tv, buy one less soda during the day, pack your lunch instead of eating at a fastfood place......lots of places to save money....just look around!

thanks for sharing your opinion

I understand that you are 40 years old and I don't mean to say you don't know anything about us younger guys. I think you are doing the right thing in supporting the companies by purchasing software.

I just think giving a hand for anything is good. Doesn't matter if it's owe'd or not. Cracked or not.

 

[Alexrkstr]

I can't believe this thread keeps going and going and going...

It's like the eternal battle of good and evil...

Cheers!

the way i see it, i download stuff and i know its wrong, but its a choice i make. But im not stupid enough to come to this forum and ask for a crack, if ive got a cracked version of something i will come here and humbly hope that one of these pros will give me an anwser. I appreciate the help of the guys here and if you want there help you should play by there rules, so the lesson is.... download cracked software, just dont tell the old guys you have a cracked version. Now can we all kiss and make up?

 

[chamelious]

Morally, its wrong, legally, its wrong, sexually, its wrong, etc etc. Will people still do it?? Yes. Why?? Because its very very easy to get away with. How many people at the end of the day will just put their hands up and say fine, i do it, i dont care? I would, bits of plastic with engravings on them and a large instruction book is not worth £600. Although at the end of the day, i do agree its totally wrong, i just think most of us arn't perfect, i DONT think its the same as stealing a car or something as someone made that analargy earlier. To use that analargy, at least with a car if you pay more for it, theres a phsyial reason, i.e the car cost more to put together. Anyone im sure its all been said before, im done now anyway.

I think perhaps the theory of infinity will come into play and sooner or later everything that's ever been said about everything will be documented in this thread.

I just unsubscribed from this thread. I feel a new, brighter chapter in my life is about to begin.

I want to pirate that cat picture!

All of you self proclaimed saints out there fuck yourselves.
You mother fuckers are stealing the air that you breath. You dont think twice about how your maggot lives are destroying a beautiful planet with the waste that comes from your ass, and the resources you fucking chew up everyday, putting another bird out of a home, fucking fat filthy pigs.
Go to the mirror and ask yourselves why should you go on living.
No no no, not for the kids, thats not good enough ****, not for your fucking pig wives either. You take more than you give full stop. We all fucking do.
If you fucks want to make a positive difference the best thing you can do is blow your fucking brains out you fuck wits, and stop trying to make yourself feel good about somebody who steals a little bit more than you do.
I cant wait for you to all to die.

Dont worry, im not a hypocrite i will be the first to blow my brains out for the real benefit of this world and allow the innocence to take over once again, but not before i take the likes of Blue bear with me, these ****s need to be punished.

Sounds like right now would be a good time for you live up to your word.
Maybe you'll start a trend and the rest of the dipshits will follow right along.
Sounds promising.
