Do you think Linkin Park were really using pirated software? If so, why do you think they did it?

Will Mike come forward and write an explanation of this situation?

 

I wonder if this won't end up with any lawsuits.

 

Thanks to dezound at VK.com

LOL

Mike:Chester do you have money in your credit card?

Chester:Sorry buddy.You know I have a lot of kids and...

Mike:I don't have ,too.

Chester: Let's use TEAM ArCade crack's.I think Steve downloaded it before.I saw it on his PC.

Mike:Good Idea.

It's kinda strange if you consider that they probably have more than enough money to buy such software but anyway...couldn't care less tbh.

The price is about $185 (€139), it will be very surprising if they tried to "save" that money.

Official response:

 

It’s recently come to my attention that some fans on Reddit caught a screenshot of a pirated software plug-in from a recent Youtube clip I did with Linkin Park. To clear the air, I have owned the properly registered plug-in, Sylenth, for over 4 years now on my studio computer. I’ve included both the receipt and a screenshot of the actual plug-in below, purchased by my faithful assistant Jacob Lee. This is the computer I do all of my production on, including “A Light That Never Comes” with Linkin Park.

 

However, the honest truth is that screenshot is in fact of my road laptop (the laptop I DJ with). I go through 5 or 6 of them a year, usually purchasing them while on the road. After my last purchase, I had asked my road team to help me load in my production software and apparently they didn’t ask Jacob for the authorization code for Sylenth and installed a pirated version.

 

So my apologies go out to the good people at Lennar Digital and a big thank you to my fans that caught the mistake which has since been rectified.

 

Sincerely,

Steve Aoki
