Hi. I updated at the weekend to the latest version of Cakewalk. And also updated the Bandlab Assistant without any issues. I went this morning to update to the hotfix. And Bandlab Assist is not recognising my log in. In fact Windows flags it as an unsafe site. Yesterday (9/10) there was a windows update (1903. 18362.418). Which claimed to have fixed security issues. I have downloaded Bandlab Assistant again. And still have the problem (either running within Cakewalk or the app standalone). Is any one else having this issue : B EDIT - seems the solution was to completely uninstall BA and re-install (though still had warnings popup).

An interesting source of Pianos (if you use Kontakt) is Pianobook. Set up by Christian Henson of Spitfire Audio. pianobook The community submits its own instruments. Some are a bit meeh. But many have real character and are worth exploring. All are free to download. There are other instruments other than pianos (some great pads). Some will be in EXS format. But you can use the free TX16W sampler to open and use these within CW.

I have Reaktor sitting as an effect bus or insert on almost all my projects. There are some great reverbs, delays , and manglers. Check out the filters and delays from Dieter Zobel. Other recommendations are Boscomac http://boscomac.free.fr/ You do have to go through a lot of lightweight stuff on the user library. But it's worth trying. And the mastering effects in the standard library are good. With some users providing improved versions as well.
