Power Mix - Pioneer branding?
no
Posts: 43
So the new Power Mix DJ set by powerage has some rather faithful replicas of real-life DJ equipment, which is very cool. However, I couldn't help but notice that one of the objects in the set has the actual brand logo from Pioneer! It even has the exact model number, it's the Pioneer DDJ‑SZ2. I'm perplexed as to why the artist would include this and how Daz missed it. Unless there's something I'm missing here, I wouldn't expect Daz to be okay with selling a product that has actual corporate brand logos.

Thanks for the heads up. Bought it, before it gets pulled.
And a Technics logo on the record player. I just don't se why companies would object against this (and some actually don't), it's free advertising.
Well we have multiple examples in DazPoserLand of products that are copies of real world products, some of them right down to the branding. As an example, there's a car with the Lexus logo and raised LEXUS lettering on said car in the Daz store, and it has been there for quite a while actually. It's even a Daz Original. I'm not going to bother to cite a bunch of other examples, just pointing out that we DO have branding in the Daz store.
So I'm not immediately put off by branding, due to these multiple examples. But, one would hope that the PA did reach out to the companies involved. As for where this falls as far as fair use, I honestly have no clue, but I'm guessing that Daz's legal team understands this very well.
Both these points have actually been reported but it is very early in the Daz day at the moment, (03:50am according to my daz clock as I type this), so we are closing this thread.
