@Christoph-Hart is right if I just put the name Channel Robot it is ranking high. Google is showing all of your plugins at one page. However Torrent sites also coming.

That means Only licensed users get the plugins.

Only licensed users get the samples from me. The source code is on github so anyone can compile and redistribute it and the samples are under a CC license so they can be redistributed non-commercially.

If someone wants to try your plugins as a Demo or 10 days trial, is that possible?

You didn't join my livestream :( I'm working on a demo system.

Finally a site that has some of my stuff! I was beginning to feel left out.

[DabDab]

@d-healey Really? Librewave is your company right? Your products on this sites?

[d.healey]

@DabDab My Libre Wave stuff isn't on there but my Xtant Audio stuff is.

[DabDab]

@d-healey Ok... Now understand.

@Lindon @orange @hisefilo @dustbro
Send An email Yo Audioz.download , Their Moderator Name is Pirat , and include the links. with The Title Of Post Removal.

The Hacking Sites Works Like This:

First A Team R2R, VR, Flare, Or .... Gets A Demo Or Licensed Installer from AReal Person.
Then They Hack The Protection and Send It To Audioz Or
Internal Website That Only A Group of People Can Join.
And Is Not Public.

Then One of Their Trusted Guys Post The New Hacked Product on Audioz(Yeah Everything Starts From AZ)
And They Add Premium Links So They can Earn Couple of $ Or Cent.

Always Take an Eye On your Google Analytics, Once you see A Drastic Visiting Changes, Follow The Traffic Source,
And Dmca The Website.

Magsey , Az, And Other Websites are Responsible On Dmca's.
So Don't Take It Easy, And Act Fast.

How I Know These?
Well i Have A Good Relationship With Underground Hackers And my Last 2 Products Are Not Anywhere Yet

@Lindon Don't Feel Down Mate, The Power Of Promotion of These Websites are Very Great, You'll see lots of Tutorial Videos On Youtube After You Get Hikacked.
Just drop Them an Email, and Ask Them to Stop The Party.

Audioz.download

err..ok so i'm sending the DMCA notice to pirat@audioz.download ???

[Natan]

@Lindon Use This One:
discontent@audioz.se

And Use The Form Here:
https://audioz.download/?do=dmca

Send To Both.

Or make an Account On Az, And Send thm Direct PM.

My Advice, Please be Polite with The Hackers
Or they Will do Their worst To You

[DabDab]

@Natan But the things get complicated when it moves to open plugin torrent website like
https://XXXX.com/
https://XXXX.download/
https://XXXX.in

Here it is not just limited to paid members. It is for everyone. @Lindon and all need to stop as soon as possible. If it is hosted to any of these sites they will not care. It will remain as cracked plugins forever.

Edit: I've censored the domain names, since we're not trying to advertise these sites (even if it's unintentional).

[Natan]

Once your Post Gets Off Of Their Sites, Your Sales will Recover after 1 or 2 Week.

And The reason is The Visitors Think that The Products never been Hacked.
And In other Hand, Most of The Website (Excluding Audioz) Ship Junks and Viruses with The download.
So The undreground Users dont trust To other Links.

Yeah They all Do Pirating but Some of Them are still Do This Clean, and don't Install Shit Along New Product Installers On End users Computer.
So This makes It more easy for You to Just drop a Line to Audioz, and Ask For Post removal.

have you noticed a dip in your sales when the cracked releases came out?

I saw a drop of about 80-90% after R2R cracked my plugs. Sales went back up when I released v1.1 updates... and then dropped again when those got cracked. It appears that a sizeable number of people in the audio community would use stolen software if given the opportunity.
I can't "cast the first stone" as they say. As a teenager, my audio computer was a cesspool of questionably obtained software.
@Christoph-Hart as you know, I'm implementing a new protection system soon. Once R2R figured out how to block the iLok licenses, it was pretty much a copy/paste procedure to hack anyone using iLok... bummer. But moving away from such a widely used platform would hopefully make it more annoying for the hackers.
At the end of the day, just about any software can be cracked. My goal with copy protection is to hold them off long enough to make a return on my investment, and then release an update that will restart the product cycle.

@DabDab Don't Mind The Small One, shoot In The Head of Warez Website, AUDIOZ.

Other ones are Just Assholes.
I explained On My Above Post

[Dan Korneff]

There are some services that monitor warez websites and remove content for you.

Been thinking about giving this a go

And You still See The Drop Right?
Because your Products are live On Audioz!!!
Never Sit back and Watch Your Sale Going Down.

And keep that in Mind.
Some of users Do Both Buying/Pirating.

Some of Them First visit the Warez Website, And have The chance to Try your product for free, and Once they get their Hands on your Product, They never come back to Your website.

You Did A Great Job Man, But Letting your Awesome plugins Live On Warez Websites Doesn't Sounds Pro.

Send an Email, And Ask For Post Removal.

I do this already. You're at the mercy of their willingness to comply.

[Natan]

@dustbro Make an Account On Audioz
And Send A Pm To Dude Called Pirat.

He is Fast On Dmca

[DabDab]

@Natan . I have one question. If it is shorted so easily then why big companies Like Izotope, Omnisphere, Native Instruments etc (just name of phew) are being pirated?
Why their products are still on every pirated sites? It doesn't make a sale drop or they just do not care ?

[Natan]

@DabDab
But Antares, Xfer records and Other ones Do Send Dmca Emails.

The reason Other ones Don't, Is Because They Are always welcome With Free promotion,
You see Lots of ableton Live Tutorials on YouTube.
I bet 80% off videos Are made on A NonLegit Version of ALive.

This Easily Makes Free Ads, And Fee Promotion,
For example:

Cubase 5 Was one of The Biggest & Best Daw's Once Hacked By A Team Called TeamAiR.

The whole Industry Switched To cubase 5, and After they Changed to Dongles, Their Popularity Dropped, and Producers Switched to The Ableton.

And Now you see Ableton Rules The Industry, Although Cubase Is Bigger and Better.

This is A Perspective Of How to Drive your Business,
Izotope Wasn't That Famous, Until They Let Their Plugins Be available to All Music Community.
So they Decide to Continue On same Road That Ableton stepped on
