Behringer Vintage Plugin

[michat]

Hey guys, I was able to download it and got a license, but it won't setup due to "missing files". As far as I can see there are a bunch of people being able to install it, maybe there's workaround?

There aren't endless possibilities to create GUI's. At this point it's always a combination of already known components (knobs, sliders, switches and displays). Even modern (none vintage looking) GUI's are already repeating itself to death. There are also UX rules to follow. I don't think graphics like this can (or should be allowed) to be patented.

but i bet you a £100 you will still download it and try it out on release .

I certainly won't be downloading it... do I get £100?

No because i know you 100% will , if just not for the intrigue of it .

I’m going to take a wild guess that you are under twenty.

The hypothesis that everyone who doesn't hate Behringer is some kind of ignorant young whippersnapper is dead wrong

I don't hate them and I am a grandfather in my mid 50s

What I hate is the elitism often displayed and if people think that synth manufacturers are all non profit companies with the exception of Behringer who is the devil

From my perspective more people owning more instruments and more gear to make more music can only be a good thing

Did Behringer make some really crappy gear? Sure they did. Did Yamaha, Roland, Moog, Korg and every other company make some really crappy gear? Sure

Does pretty much every company make stuff in Asia? Sure.

If the country club crowd wants to sit around looking down at people and talking about how only only company can use knobs, square buttons, or fake wood grain on plugins well that just makes them look silly

You're missing there point, as is everyone who doesn't see any problem with using another companies design department as your own. Let's just use a non-technical issue, the look and feel of a product, which applies to soda cans and ceiling fans, wallpaper and furniture. If a company chooses not to create their own "look and feels" but takes another easily recognizable look and feel, it's not a victimless crime. Otherwise ShopRite could make their cola cans look exactly like Coke cans, and the estate of Donald Judd, whose designs were knocked off by a cheap manufacturer who sold them to Kim Kardashian, would just shrug their shoulders and say, that's life. Forget about the circuit designers. If you've ever known anyone who has toiled for years in a graphic design department, coming up with new, individual graphic designs that represent their company and give people an image to hang on to, you'd understand why making a blatant visual rip off of another person's work, is not something that should be given a pass because the world is a place where this kind if thing happens. You see the pedals that are so laughably knockoffs visually of Boss pedals and you think, it's a big corporation, nobody was hurt, no one loses, but that's incorrect. There was a person who created the Boss look and feel, and they were paid by Boss and not by Behringer. If Behringer paid the original designer whose work they used it would be a different story. But they don't.

The easiest way to out this to a musician is: if you wrote songs that became hits in the U.S., and someone told you that regardless of what legal means you took so that you could benefit, anyone else can take your song, make a copycat recording, and release it all over the world and you shouldn't be disappointed or even surprised, you say no, I'm fighting that.

We're not talking about Asian counterfeits or Asian 80% copies like Chibson guitars, manufactured under the radar, We're talking about someone who puts himself high in the public eye and says F you, why hire a design staff when I can use your designs? People who are OK with that usually have never run a business or created a product they wanted to make a living off of.

as i said inspired by or loosely copying outlines is not the same as stealing , if that was how do you justify every movie and every song ?

[vurt]

I wonder why they took down the page if there’s no problem with it?

Bugfixes. (apparently it was calling home)

Should be back by the weekend.

i heard a name change too, as "vintage" is a bit generic.
it will be the behringer duo tonic pterosaur.

I heard they took the website down to rename it "Saurish"

They hired a designer. This is what that designer came up with. It's heavily 'inspired' by other similar products. Every designer copies other designs. Some can hide it better than others.

Every designer copies other designs. Some designers can hide a better.

I'm getting sick of car designers always copying each other with same colours and the same design with 4 wheels and seats and steering wheels, it's impossible to tell the difference

Ahhh...but next year's models are going to feature square wheels...

There's an hilarious skit by Bob Newhart called "The General Chariot Corporation"...

It is so funny....and so true

hello.

I heard they took the website down to rename it "Saurish"

It was "Sauringer" from what the brother-in-law of my neighbours auntie read on the internets...

Well the barber of my second cousin twice removed said it was going to be "AAS Saurage", and also that it would include a coupon for cereal where inside the box you would find a free voucher for tone2 saurus. Seems unlikley but I just don't know what to believe.

Sewage ....

I wasn't able to download this before the page was taken offline, but judging from the presets (as heard on youtube), this synth doesn't sound very good even for a freebie.

[seafire]

It's much better than the presets provided. This is the case for the majority of synths.
