Hello swaard. What I want to know is, if you know, what in PT make it shut down and not work when loading other cracked applications and or plugins? Cause I bought a legit PT LE Mbox 2 Pro and when I installed crack reason and Wave it just shut down. Sometimes it loads, but won't load any sessions or I get mad clock errors. Yet, when I install the vrs. 8 that I got here, I get the same thing. I'm assuming that it has nothing to do with this vrs. I just have to go as far as re-formatting my HD to wipe away what PT did after detecting cracked appl. If anyone know of a faster way, I'm all ears. I tried to do a System Restore, uninstall and reinstall, didn't work. What ever PT has within it's appl. that detects other crack appl. and make your PT corrupt is embedded deep.
I understand that PT tries to protect their products, but it pisses me off that they have the audacity to shut down your computer cause you have a product that don't even have anything to do with PT. Once I drop almost a grand, I should have the right to do what I want with Pro Tools. Except resell and or break their patent laws.
What would you do if you bought a new car and it shut down if you used it for other purposes then going back and forth to work. Couldn't give a ride to anyone and or other things without buying permission from the dealer.
What is so insulting, they charge you to speak to their techs. Like $12/min and it stop after $75. Then on top of that they charge and arm and a leg for lil bitty stuff.
I tried to go legit with PT and FL (which is the best). But now! Instead of encouraging me to come to them to spend more, they've pushed me back to crack.
So today, if I can get some assistance to get this newer version to work, I will become an official CRACKHEAD!!! But please! No pipes and I'm allergic to needles.
Thank you swaard for your efforts to make life easier for Music, CRACKHEADS, like me. OUT!!
