I heard about this yesterday. Searching for information found a short article at
MusicRadar. From the article:
The case revolved around Mooer’s Mooergan and Tender Octaver pedals, which included exact copies of the software used in EHX’s C9 Organ Machine and Micro POG ... When cloning the pedals, Mooer is also said to have copied the Electro-Harmonix copyright notice found in the software for the C9 and Micro POG, thus alerting EHX to the infringement ... although it’s difficult to copyright an analogue circuitboard, software infringement is one of the ways in which companies can take action ... After almost two years of fighting, the Chinese courts have awarded Electro-Harmonix a nearly six-figure judgement.Seems kinda blatant when you don't even bother to change the copyright notice from the original. Less than six figures, say $95,000 or so, after two years of court cases seems somewhat less than a significant win. If you see an article with more information, please post a link.
