You and I should hunt down that hibidy character, go grab a beer or coffee, and talk sh!t about the other less cool KVR members. :hihi:
That's right, I'm sure that I was talking to him the one other time that I was talking about my location.

Is this one of those wind up threads? In any case it's rather amusing. :lol:

we are technologically advanced enough now where they can probably generate grey matter from boob tissue to fix that.

Now here's some big boobs.....

Yeah.....in a way it kind of sucks that hardware even exists that can't be fully used without registration/serial#. Unfortunately, this is becoming increasingly more common. And there's nothing wrong with selling such on eBay....as long as your clear about it in your description. As pointed out, sometimes the hardware in question is somewhat usable as a controller. What really pisses me off tho are things like the kajillions of cloud-locked iPads out there good for nothing but landfill......Apple claims its in the name of security....but I think it's more in the name of selling more iPads.

Fender bundles a powerful app with Mustang amps, and if someone buys
an amp secondhand, they WANT the people to download and use
their software to maximize their brand, inch by inch.

Native Instruments is stupid not to follow suit. Unused 2nd hand Maschines
don't help anybody, and the cost of issuing a 'new' license of finished old software is insignificant. It's not like you could use it with midi hardware from arturia, or other competitors. Dog in the manger... :roll:

We are?! Are you in the Sacramento area?
Yeah, I know I've talked about it before, but it's not something that I advertise because I like being quasi-anonymous. So a few people will read this, and then it will be forgotten.
Why did I think you were in Oakland or thereabouts? Did you move in the past couple of years? (Because we might as well go off topic :hihi: )
Oakland to sacto will be just another commuter train by the time moonbeam
finishes off the taxpayers. Forget reservoirs, desalination units, cisterns,
who needs water when you can ride a train to a kvr summit,
with those great Amplitube chops on display?

Speaking of, Arturia doesn't automatically give you you a license with their hardware, although, they sell it separately.

Is this bad in the long term? I think it has a negative impact on the used market, but I'm not sure that matters much to NI in this context. I don't know, that's more of a question for discussion.

Ableton has the audacity to give you an into license with a NEW push, but, only if you don't already have a license. You have to register your push with a different account in order to get your free intro license.

Arturia sell midi devices with clearly advertised software bundles.
It would be dumb to attempt not allowing registration of that bundle.

If they sell other hardware without bundled software, it would
be dumb to give away unrelated licences...

'Automatic' can be contractural, but not instant, it still involves
the customer and provider taking various actions to complete the deal.

'Extra' maschine licenses can't restrict NI presence in the wilds,
but every unused maschine does. A wise King of NI would want every maschine
licensed, and out there, with people asking what that weird hardware is,
what it can do...and who sells it.

I was specifically talking about Spark which, similar to Maschine, is almost useless without the software. Also, like Maschine, the software is useful without the hardware.

I pretty much assume that any of this hardware in pawn shops doesn't have the associated software.

Hmmm... this makes the OP sorta suspect! Unless she has a real playful nature, stating she has big boobs seems quite Unnecessary since it has nothing to do with the stated issue! I'm not convinced a woman would come here and actually do that?

EDIT: Guess I should've refreshed the page before I posted. The cat wasn't out of the bag when I posted these comments! :ud:
It´s not 100 % confirmed yet as I see it, that this is a scammer. I´d imagine however that this could be some kind of feminist humour, where they somehow think that the world sees girls with larger atributes as dumber, hence they´re creating a stereotype of it, making fun of the way that they (the feminists) think the world sees voluptousness..

(I hope there´s a bit of sense in that! )

And of course it´s possible to spell Maschine wrong without being dumb or that there´s anything suspicious about it.

This COULD be the new "guy-from-alphaville" thread! :)

Best regards and wishes for a great weekend
