ehā¦ whats going on?
who does those pirated selfreleases?
isnt reaktor user library made for reusing community built instruments, itās the whole point or you put it in some other commercial soft?
It is well known in music software industry, that some of the big companies put some fake cracked versions of their softwares on some of the most known sites for pirated software to catch and sue software pirates.
Even Reason Studios did that back in the Propellerhead days when Reason 6 was released in 2012. They boasted that their new copy protection is uncrackable and even made a competition out of it.
They offered a free lifetime license with free lifetime upgrades to the person who could crack their new copy protection. But until today no one was able to crack it. Thatās why Reason 5 was the latest cracked version.

Reason 11 and 12 were cracked in 2021 with a big number of RE plugins
Another good reason to stop pirating, for anyone still doing it.
Most major DAWs release perfectly-functional software that you can make anything your heart desires in, and even stream over into your favorite four-track recorder, bounce the audio files over into another piece of software, or what have you. Obviously saving and loading are usually disabled purposely, so that you eventually buy the software, but working within these perfectly-reasonable limitations and abiding by their fair TOS can make for some extremely creative sessions. More creative than āget it all, today, for nothing!ā, and then not using half of the stuff you acquired because you donāt know how to read a manual.
I donāt mean to sound like āthat guyā, but anyone who pirates anything is usually losing at the end of the day. Thatās a hill that Iāll die on.
This was one of the reasons why I went all in. $80 is still a lot to me, but being able to digest the manual (or the parts you initially care about), use it to its near-fullest extent, and even save and load your tracks (correct me if Iām wrong) really allows you to understand quite a lot before finally buying it / while youāre saving for it.
Iām not saying software pirates never read manuals, but I think skipping ahead in line just doesnāt really gel with the slow learning / working toward something approach. Iām not talking from a stance of moral superiority, either; itās hands-on experience. Iāve made that mistake more than anyone, likely, and itās just not worth it.
I never would install any cracked sofwares. The cracks mostly are full of viruses and trojansā¦

I donāt think this is a lot for what youāll get.
I tried most of other modern trackers out there, but in my opinion Renoise is the most usable for me. I work a lot with the sampler. I even use it to edit samples that i only use outside of Renoise for other purposes like editing samples for game development. I even often prefer it to Sound Forge Pro Suite which i also own.

Yeah, for anyone curious, the point wasnāt that $80 was too much; it was that, while being a lot for me at the time, it was well-worth it because of the freedom Renoise brought to the table, and I had plenty of time to learn what I needed before even paying, which is more than what most DAWs could ever offer ā even though their versions are often pretty sweet, too. FL lets you export instead of saving, for example, which is a unique tradeoff.
Maybe I need to start making a TL;DR to ālongā posts like these or something so that theyāre more digestible to the common user, but there was way more to it than that.
Iām not sure I agree with that, but Iād also urge you to read the whole post once again.
