The fact this lad is only 17 and doing as well as he is is truly incredible.br

how can you tell is cracked?

for those who have seen the video on future music, is it me or did martin look like he has done this so many times that he just looks annoyed. Or as someone else put it he just looked stoned thru out the whole video. I also thought it was amazing that he still lives with his folks and this video is done in his bedroom on an fl studio software.br

Still great achievement for a young lad, great song i love it.

“Team AiR” on his sylenth

oh :blink:

There are many artist’s that are using cracked software, I’d guess that like most “artist’s” at the time of making this track he probably didn’t have and awful lot of money like most young kids and was using cracked software. He’s probably not realised that he’s not updated his synths and paid for them. br
br
Its fair to say that even if you contacted Lenner about this he wouldn’t be bothered because the synth is getting marketing from “famous” producers using it and have probably been responsible for already shifting a few hundred more units just from people watching that video.

Yeah, loads of big producers will use cracked stuff, but they probably think b4 future music come round to film them they’d maybe buy it or not bring up the plug :stuck_out_tongue:

He probs had it before he got big to be honest, like the rest of us (me excluded as I have bought most of my software now)br
br
He probs just never got around to - or thought about - buying the legit copy after his success.br
br
I’m sure he will now that he’s probs had a bit of stick since the video.br

This reminds me of the time John Dahlback got caught out and we were discussing it on this forum and he popped in and left a few replies about it.
