If I took a hundred pieces of software and installed them on two
different computers with the same installer, one with legit serial
numbers and one with generated numbers I'd expect them to work the
same.
I mean do you really expect windows will work better because it's not
cracked? ;-)
If an industry is life or death based on wether or not your software
works then personally I would get out of that business. ;-) The only
one that really comes to mind is being a soldier.
The main thing about Reaktor and MAX etc is that they have much
smaller
user bases and are smaller companies. Does that make it easier to
rationlize spending more money on them? It also means that there are
fewer brainiac crackers out there to come up with keygens for these
programs.

On average cracked software is not as stable as the real Mcoy.
Period.
Take a hundred cracks and run them on 100 identical computers.
Then take a hundred legitimate copies and run them on the same 100
identical computers.
Which phase of the experiment will have the most amount of crashes?
Would you stake your life upon the results?

...why not say the cracks you've used of Reacktor were unstable...
cause not all software works the same way.

Xdugef,
Hmmm...
I disagree. Cracked software is almost never as stable as the
real
Mcoy. I know there is always an exception to the rule, but i
rather
stick with the law of averages. Ever try to load a cracked
version
of
Reaktor into another software app as a VST instrument? Wow talk
about
unstable. The Legit version lets you do so on the fly, multiple
instances even! This kind of stuff requires the most recent
version
of
all apps involved usually, a big road block if your studio is full
of
cracked apps.(thats why old school hardware rocks, GO NORD!)
I also do not like to scour the net for serial#'s every time an
update
comes out, even if its a minor one.
The time between Reator 4 and Reaktor 5 was about 3 years. During
that
time many upgrades came out that were free and added an amazing
amount
of content to the program, not to mention the amazing work done by
the
community regulars themselves.
It also allows you to install Reaktor to multiple machines.
I like PD and Max and the endless amount of other software as
well,
unfortunately life keeps me from enjoying them all. Bottom line
is
that do what you can afford to. If you cant afford to buy
software
like this, then use the great open source options out there, or
what
ever other nebulous means to get your work to the next level. I
frown
upon pirating software, a point of reference thing i guess(work),
but
i
understand why people do so( i have as well in certain points of
my
life)

mmm.. that may be true about some applications but most cracks
these
days use serial number generators and you can many times get the
current version before the offical release date.
I'm not advocating using cracked software but just pointing out
the
fallacy that "cracked software is inherently flawed".
Also you only get to use the most current verion if you buy it or
buy
the upgrades. It seems like the strategy of most large software
vendors
these days is to release software that they know is flawed or
missing
features so that they can charge you for upgrades later...on a
schedule
once or twice a year. Plus you usually have little freedom to
copy
the
software to a second computer or you can but you have get
permission to
do so. Some companies will charge you an arbitrary relocation
fee... so
if you have the option to get a USB dongle then do so.. it will
save
you a headache if you have machine problems and need to use a
different
computer at 3 on a sunday morning.
But to get back on target.. PD is free right???.. if you can wrap
your
mind around it then try it out, it won't cost you anything and is
completely legit. After trying it out if you want MAX then
learning
MAX
will be easy or easier.
