Aren't you the same guy who has no budget limit for software? Going cheap on your audio I/O is counter-productive to spending $$$ on high-end software and is going to have a major impact on your final product.

im not gonna buy it, get it free with a code/crack w.e from another forums where u just request any program. ANd i wasnt going to use the program on this computer, its a new computer that were gonna get, we just need sound for this on so u can listen to some music or when shes watching videos and all that so,,, thats y i just asked, if i just got the same soudn card as the one in this one would it like "reset" the sound so it would be back?

[robertruetz]

Perhaps you could just steal a new soundcard? Then you wouldn't have to spend any money at all. :rolleyes:

Apparently you don't understand that many of us consider your theft of software to be wrong.

The advice is correct. If you are stealing, why stop with software? Simply steal a computer that has an audio interface that works properly?

I presume you stole the computer in the first place...right?

Let me make is simple. Not paying for something that belongs to someone else is THEFT. Downloading and using cracked software is THEFT.

Why would we give advice to a self confessed thief?

"Hey everyone, I just stole this guys car and now the radio won't work.. Can you tell me how to get the radio to work, or should I steal another car with a good radio?"

Mr. Homeropereira is no longer with us. If anybody missed it, the following is posted on the home page of Audioforums.com:
AudioForums.com is definitely not the place to discuss warez, cracks or stolen software in any form. Thanks, we definitely appreciate your cooperation!
This rule is enforced. This forum would not exist if it were not for the support of companies that stay in business by selling software. We won't stab them in the back by discussing cracks, stolen software, or ways to "beat" copy protection. There are plenty of other places on the web where that sort of thing is tolerated, so please don't try and discuss it here.

this is homeropereira, please dont bann me again....sorry i did not see that on the page, and i didnt steal annthing, i just didnt know it was that big of a deal and i just didnt know, so...sorry and im not going to get the stolen sofware, my moms botfriend is getting it for me(he lives in new jersey) so sorry for everything, im not that kind of person.

[nagal]

err so you are going to have someone else steal your software for you?

[hphphp]

No nonononono hes going to buy it, with money, dollars,, legally...

[Audiodude]

I won't ban you again, but please be aware that if you ask us questions regarding software, the forum members here will not help you unless you are willing to provide proof that you purchased your software.

If you buy it from Sweetwater, that's easy enough, because I'll have access to your records. If you purchase it elsewhere, I'll need you to fax or email me a receipt so I can report to the forum community that you have joined the ranks of legal software owners, and they'll bend over backwards to answer any question you can come up with.

Most of the other users here have paid money (some of us have paid a great deal of money) for our software, and most of us are ourselves in the business of creating intellectual property (music) that we don't want people to steal. So you can expect a bit of a knee jerk reaction when somebody openly admits that they are taking for free what the rest of us had to pay for.

Not to mention the fact that this forum is supported in part by advertisers who are in business because people buy their software. If we don't clamp down on abuse of their software, we run the risk of losing their support. We don't want that.

oh ok thanks a lot.

can i still ask about my weird speaker problem?

[Audiodude]

Yes, but no guarantees they'll want to help you out.

I'd start troubleshooting. Try the speakers with a different source (other than your computer). Try the computer with different speakers. Swap cables.

I suspect the problem is with the computer and/or sound card, in which case I'd start by physically removing and the sound card (if that's possible, may not be if it's built into the motherboard), restarting without it, removing any software or drivers associated with it, then re-inserting the card and reinstalling the drivers.

If that doesn't solve it, you may have to replace the card. Depending on who manufactured your card, you may be able to get some support from the manufacturer.

It will also help us if you can post more of the specifics on your system. What model sound card? What OS are you running? How, specifically, are your speakers connected? What software are you trying to get audio out of?
