SergSlim Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 According to the article at uniquesquared.com, Steve Aoki and Linkin Park were using cracked software, when working on their collaboration - A Light That Never Comes. Read the full article here 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skipees Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 it might be someone elses computer.Or maybe someone else did that, someone that Steve told him "Get me a copy of Sylenth 1" and took it to the wrong way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gorast Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 Shit happens. I'm sure we'll get a hilarious response from Mike soon. That is, if he even notices this "story." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wiiesel Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skipees Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 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.

Astat Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 Update from Steve Aoki at the bottom of the source article clears this up. Total non-issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skipees Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
