While GitHub did not find sufficient information to determine a valid anti-circumvention claim, we determined that this takedown notice contains other valid copyright claim(s).

---

One or more repositories in this DMCA takedown notice has been processed in accordance with GitHub's prohibition on sharing unauthorized product licensing keys, software for generating unauthorized product licensing keys, and/or software for bypassing checks for product licensing keys.

You can learn more in [GitHub's Acceptable Use Policies](https://docs.github.com/en/github/site-policy/github-acceptable-use-policies).

To the GitHub DMCA Agent,

I have read and understand GitHub's Guide to Filing a DMCA Notice.

This is a notice under Section 1201 of the DMCA (anti-circumvention) concerning
four repositories that provide a means of circumventing the technological
protection measures on our commercial software. These repositories do not host
our software itself; they exist to defeat the licence-key activation that
controls access to it.

1. IDENTIFICATION OF THE COPYRIGHTED WORKS AND THEIR PROTECTION MEASURE

The works are "Cloudmax 2" and "Synths 2 Abyss", commercial audio products
developed, published and sold by Karanyi Sounds Ltd. Cloudmax 2 is an audio
plugin (VST3/AU/AAX); Synths 2 Abyss is a virtual instrument library for Native
Instruments Kontakt. Both are proprietary paid products and neither has been
released as freeware. Access to them is controlled by a licence-key activation
system, which is a technological protection measure within the meaning of
17 U.S.C. 1201.

Our products are sold at:
https://karanyisounds.com/products/cloudmax-3
https://karanyisounds.com/products/complete-kontakt-suite

2. IDENTIFICATION OF THE INFRINGING MATERIAL

(a) Rudanx/karanyi-sounds-cloudmax2-premium-unlocked
https://github.com/Rudanx/karanyi-sounds-cloudmax2-premium-unlocked
Title and description: "Unlock Karanyi Sounds Cloudmax 2 Crack with License
Key". The README instructs users to download an "EasyLaunch" archive and
apply an activation code to unlock the paid features of our software, and
includes a "License Key Activation" section.

(b) [private]
[private]
Description: "Download Karanyi Sounds Cloudmax 2 Crack With License Key -
Unlock Premium Features".

(c) [private]
[private]
Description: "Download Karanyi Sounds Synths 2 Abyss Crack with License Key
for Ultimate Sound Design".

(d) saimabbasmalik7866-hash/abyss-synth-archive.
https://github.com/saimabbasmalik7866-hash/abyss-synth-archive
Presented as "Top Karanyi Sounds Synths 2 Abyss Alternatives for Producers
2026", but its repository topics are activation keywords targeting our
product: "karanyi-sounds-synths-2-abyss", "karanyi-sounds-synths-2-abyss-key",
"karanyi-sounds-synths-2-abyss-trial", "karanyi-sounds-synths-2-abyss-install",
"karanyi-sounds-synths-2-abyss-download".

Each of these repositories is primarily designed and marketed for the purpose of
circumventing our licence activation measure, and has no other commercially
significant purpose. None of them is a review, a demonstration, commentary, or a
security research project. They follow an identical pattern and appear to be part
of the same coordinated campaign against our products.

3. HOW THE USER CAN REMEDY THE INFRINGEMENT

These repositories cannot be brought into compliance by editing individual files,
as their entire stated purpose is circumvention. We request that all four
repositories be disabled in full.

4. CONTACT INFORMATION OF THE COPYRIGHT OWNER

6. SWORN STATEMENTS

on the infringing web pages is not authorized by the copyright owner, or its
agent, or the law. I have taken fair use into consideration.

the owner, of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.
