One of our customers asked me about my involvement in Behringers new 'Vintage' vsti. Many people are thinking that it is a new version of the Tone2 Saurus plugin. They asked me if I did the graphics or the sound engine. I was pretty shocked to see my artstyle of the Saurus GUI beeing ripped by Behringer.

To make things worse their clone is freeware and lower quality than Saurus. I am sure it will have a negtive effect on my reputation and sales.

Usually this is the point where I should consider contacting a lawyer. Berhinger once was a German company. However they seem to have moved to 'Malaysia' or somewhere else. I assume to prevent legal trouble with their synth clones. I can't find an imprint with info on their website.

Is there anything we plugin developers can do against Behringer doing bad clones of our products?
