Seriously people. You can go so far with a VST like Synth 1.

I did the same thing when i was your age Sean, it started with buying the DAW and my choice was to spend my budget on hardware, since that couldn't be downloaded, but just like J.L. mentioned, when you get older and get more means it becomes easier to spend money on software.


I wish I had that much fun! The rest of my money gets spent on groceries, gym passes, music, lunches and clothes =\

I consider producing part of living my life. I love producing, I literally enjoy EVERY aspect of it, and I also love performing. But I mean, it doesn't consume everything I do haha.

Also; i hope I'm not sounding like some giant pirate who has 300 synthesizers and no idea how to use 90% of them.

I have like 4 softsynths outside of the included Logic ones, I use Massive, Sylenth, FM8 and Absynth, then just a few plugins like the Oxford suite and PSP.

But like I said, I have no problem paying for software, I just cannot afford it. I will buy software (Including software I already have) when I have the money.

youre 17 and have a legal version of logic, thats alot better than me. when i was 17 i had rebirth. or did i? im not sure i even had a PC at that time when i think of it, it might have been later. what the hell did i do when i was 17? i think i was selling 96% liquor to kids and claimed dept, stole cars and drove while drunk, beating up people and got into alot of trouble. piracy is pretty ok in comparison imo lol.

I bought FL because of the lifetime free updates (how can you not feel like you're getting your moneys worth?) and also own about 80% of the samples I have. Just not VEC which I oddly wound up using the most.

As far as piracy goes I don't care nor do I have much of a moral dilemna about it. I remember vividly the first time I went to buy a VST (after buying FL) and looked at the price and thought "wait, this almost costs just as much as FL does itself". And for w/e reason that turned me off a lot towards buying vsts. I was shocked at the time. These are tools, not the house I keep the tools in, and so I felt justified stealing them.
Afterall, if the developers didn't want me to steal them, they'd just use common sense and drop their fuckn prices right? Thats my main issue, not the whole paying money thing, but the amounts some of these companies actually charge. It has a lot more to do with greed than the actual value of their time imo. And for cheaper synths like vangard, I had absolutely no issue spending what I thought was actually worth it.

And another reason of course is why spend that money on fake sounding software... when I can just steal it, and save my money to buy nonfake sounding hardware? Like "hmm, should I buy z3ta, zebra, blue and albino this week... or just 1 andromeda?" The answer for me will always be the andromeda lol.
