A man with a MEGA gong says,
Here is witches' 2023 HAPPY NEW YEAR ░▒░░
release! Is it too early? Yes, but ░
you can test [MEGA] during the holidays!
Uninstall everything. Prepare the way of
the lord before it's too late. Your
"Forever $29" coupons are here!
--------------------------------------
Current plugins developed by Plugin
Alliance (not third party ones) are
protected by Digital.ai, which is
formally known as ARXAN. It is known
as competitor of the famous Denuvo
protection - many AAA game titles
are actually protected by ARXAN :)
We have kept some ways to attack PA
since v3.1 (2015). It already passed
4 years after our last work (FEB-2019).
We are very proud and happy to do it all
again.
So, let's start the protection note!
Short Review Of The Protection
------------------------------
While the ARXAN protection is strong and tight enough, there are nothing
to specially mention.
- PE protector (packer)
- Code obfuscation
- Code integration check (start up and cyclic)
- Anti Debugs
These are commonly used today. Similar functionality to VMProtect but ARXAN
is much less documented than VMProtect. VMProtect is too famous and much
cheaper than other rich solution. In that respect, ARXAN should have better
protection than VMProtect.
Protection Side Effects 2022
----------------------------
- Slow loading time. It's really slow. Sometime slower than iLok. If you
subscribe PA's all bundle in 2022, you will have more than 100 ARXAN
protected DLLs. Your DAW will take really long time to scan them all.
- Massive Memory Leaks. Plugin Alliance plugins 2022 cannot be unloaded. Even
program calls FreeLibrary(), the DLL file will not be unloaded from the
process. You can't escape from the demon once you contract.
- Periodical integration check and debugger detection. One debugger detection
is using exception. More ARXAN protected DLLs you load, your DAW will have
more exceptions in short time. The performance loss of exception cannot be
simply inspected. If you attach the debugger to DAW with PA plugin (ARXAN
protected) you will have nice exception hell.
Here is your Microsoft documents.

We don't think protector developer (Digital.ai) consider that user loads
10 or 100+ protected DLLs to one application. Audio application is time
critical. These intentional exception should be strictly avoided.
Please note, that exception is done in non audio processing thread of the
plugin. The plugin CPU usage meter in DAW does not measure it.
- Obfuscated code which kills compiler optimization.
- Bloating the binary. 5MB - 10MB is protection code in 1 DLL file.
R2R Thinks
----------
Avoid ARXAN protected Plugin Alliance plugins if you can. Find alternatives
yourself. Unlike our "rebuilt" iLok releases, our PA release does not perform
better than legit version. Not worse than legit, though.
We are sure that PA will update the protection soon again, like always. After
that update, we don't reveal next crack in short time. Cracking and testing
about 450 ARXAN protected DLL is nothing but crazy. We would like to spend our
time to other new products which does not harm your studio :)
Enjoy the cursed sour grapes. There are some good unique grapes, but most
grapes are not better than you already have.
