Without getting into the same morality arguments over & over, the bottom line is- if you want your software to work & have tech support, then buy it. Simple as.

Yeah innit, its not even a moral issue... Why learn another DAW when you can save up and get Ableton and not have to put weeks maybe months in learning a new DAW.. I'd rather just save an go get inspired till then.

@OP: The forum mods have been notified of your post, your IP logged and passed on to the appropriate authorities. Thank you.

ahahha
look..
if i had the dollar to buy it now, i would.
and i dont think i could go like 6 months without making tunes
abletons live 8 is like like 450 and thats without the Vestax VCM-600 which is like 650 :/

You could always learn how to use a free DAW, or a slightly cheaper one, like Renoise.


But I mean, this is only if you *really* cant go without making tunes... and not just here for the bandwagon.

One important distinction...

You don't NEED to make beats, you WANT to make beats. And that doesn't entitle you to anything... What would you do if your computer broke down, steal another?

6 months is nothing. I once had to go a year without a computer to make music with.. and I ended up filling 5 notebooks of ideas & notations. To be honest, I think it actually helped- if you can hold onto several ideas in your head for that long, then you know you have some dedication.

If you really can't do without, get a job. Get 2 jobs. Sell some of your stuff... etc etc. There are plenty of ways, but if you can't be bothered, then waiting 6 months for a handout shouldn't be a problem either.

Thats what the kids called "pwned" innit?

I needed a car, so I knicked one to go to the shops.

I needed some money so I mugged a fucking granny.

I needed to get my dick wet so I got jiggy wid yo mama.

Actually,
i'm in my final year of college, doing advanced music 5 days a week.
So yes i do NEED to make beats both at college and at home or i won't pass,
and if i don't pass there will be no "Handout" of which you speak of. because i won't be going to uni..
i can understand where your coming from asking me to wait 6 months and just write down whatever inspiration comes to mind,
but i have been practicing live music for over 6 years and have my grade 7 in guitar and grade 5 in Drums, so i know what i want to make, and how i want it to sound, i have ideas jotted on paper all over the place.
I just need somewhere to let out my creativity.

reaper license is 50 dollars £30 (non commercial)
you get a lot of program for that money
get a bunch of free vsti/vst from kvr
not expensive

HAHAHAHAH

but i got a cracked version of Native instruments.
Ableton live is just closing down like 5 seconds after i press play
you think it could have anything to do with using cracked vsts?
although i havnt had problems in the past :/

That still brings me back to...

Or as many people have stated, Reaper [£30 quid for a 64-bit DAW is more than reasonable!!]... plus plenty of freeware options.

Surely doing "advanced music 5 days a week" at college has given you the skills to express yourself, regardless of a few minor software limitations?

to quote mad ep "Surely doing "advanced music 5 days a week" at college has given you the skills to express yourself, regardless of a few minor software limitations?"

at college we use Logic 8 or play in bands. i have neither a mac, nor the ability to pull a band out my arse and play live dubstep/garage.. as awesome as that would be.
