Cracked and legit WAVES Install Questions.

I know that i am not the only one using the cracked version of the mercury bundle. i am gradually purchasing waves plugins.
 
I bought the Waves ssl 4000 collection and the ILock. i am concerned that installing the licensed version will interfere with the cracked versions plug ins that i am also using. Has anyone had any compatability issues?
 
Many Thanks,
Chris

    Cracked/Legit issues aside - this is a Sonar forum - perhaps you should delete this thread and move over to the Software forum (if the moderaters don't make it go bye-bye first!

    Eh?

    Can anyone tell me the firing order of a Honda CBR929 RRY 2000 Fireblade? I'm currently sorting one out that I stole for next years track days.

    Before anyone asks what that has to do with a Sonar forum, I also use Sonar 8.5.............

    1-3-4-2. Pretty much all 4-cyl Hondas are like that, I think.

    Put it in reverse, back up, apply brakes. Most parking brakes are self-adjusting these days.

    EDIT: Actually, now that I'm thinking about it, maybe the Tundra has a hand lever for the parking brake. If so, pull the boot off  or the console cover or whatever, and adjust the lock nut in there until the travel is right. Torque it back down, replace the cover and you're good to go.

    EDIT, take 2: I meant to loose the lock nut (or jam nut if you prefer), then adjust the other one.

    You know, that's a good question. I've always assumed the idea was that you hit the regular brake and it would do whatever it was the self-adjuster did. I do know that it's a good idea to use the parking brake on a regular basis, though, so the cable doesn't seize up. I'm not a mechanic and I don't play one on TV, so you should probably consult a Toyota certified repair shop. :)

    I use Sonar 8.5.x, though and am eagerly awaiting X1 tomorrow. ;)

    Delete the cracked software and use the legit ones and everything will work as it should.

    Just a FWIW (not attacking you)...
     
    In your gear list, you mention some fairly nice bits (Lynx converters/etc)...
    When you mention the crack version of Waves... especially asking for support... you have to understand that's going to rub folks the wrong way.  The first thing anyone is going to think: "If you can afford $2000 for A/D D/A, you can afford legit plugins."  
     
    If you have the legit Waves SSL bundle (and a handful of other good/legit plugins like those in Sonar 8.5), IMO... there's not a whole lot more you need to do a great mix.  IMO, It's not even worth your while to install what amounts to 200 older/mediocre plugins.  The best Waves stuff is from the SSL bundle on.
     
    I'd follow ModBod's advice.
    Install/use the legit plugins.  You'll have most (if not all) you need to do great sounding mixes.
    As a side benefit, you won't have to wade thru scores of old plugins you'll rarely (if ever) use.
    BTW, If you update to Sonar X1, you'll also have the Pro Channel... which gives you even more quality/legit processing.

    Why not post your request for help on the Waves forum?  I'm sure the friendly folks over there will be more than happy to help you.

    You could also call Waves tech support. I'm sure they will also be very eager to assist you.

    I didn't steal the car officer!  I'm just test driving it until I can afford to buy it, or it breaks! Really! Don't put me in the same category as those car crooks! I've paid for most of my cars!

    My butt is cracked. But it's legit!

    Can't resist, have to join in.....

    If you have a cracked version, I would take it back to the store you bought it at and get a new one, and if the store does not take it, report them to the mfg directly, there is no reason they should be selling merchandise that is not in perfect shape.

    PROBLEM SOLVED!!! 2010/12/07 20:42:10 (permalink)
    i purchased the silver bundle. That with SSL bundle I bought yesterday is all i really need from the waves collection at this point. Anything else just took up space in my plugin folder. Also, sweet that i don't have to worry about instability too.
    The December 40% off sale made it a no brainer.
