Sounds like my sort of thing!

Thanks for letting us know! Hope all goes well. Take care and we'll see you when we see you!

That's interesting. My APro 800 keyboard works with CbB but Midi Learn seems to have stopped working on knobs and sliders. Haven't had time to fully investigate yet but if you are having similar problems I was wondering if anything in the latest updates of CbB could have affected this - seems unlikely though. I haven't tried in Reason or Live yet so don't know if it's a problem exclusive to CbB

I'm holding off until I'm forced to install. Heard too many complaints about it. It doesn't seem to offer anything I actually need so hopefully any bugs will be ironed out by the time I have to update

Yeah I didn't get a notification either just remembered that the new version appeared to sort people out last time so went to the website

Have you updated to the latest version of Bandlab Assistant? You need version 6. I had the same problem and remembered I needed to update. If you go to the Bandlab site you'll find the download for the update. Alternatively you can go to the download location and launch manually - navigate to this folder %appdata%\bandlab-assistant\Downloads There have been a few threads on this issue - always worth checking earlier posts 🙂

Did you have the latest version of Bandlab Assistant installed? I got a failed installation (hanging at installing) but updated to version 6 and installed no problem. Worth updating ready for the next update of CbB - though good that it can now be updated from within the programme itself

Have you got the latest release of BA (6)? I remembered last night to update it after a failed install and it then worked fine

A great place to start (along with several other tutorial series) is the Creative Sauce Cakewalk Tutorials which you should find following on from here

As suggested above sensible thing to do would be to update to CbB and see if you have same problem - you can (indeed should) keep Platinum installed

Programs as in presets presumably

Does anyone know how those Sonivox orchestral libraries compare with Miroslav & Garritan PO in terms of quality / sounds? Seem like a bargain but I don't want to download stuff I have better examples of elsewhere!

Nice one!

To be fair the OP said this: 'Is there a generally accepted policy? I think it would at least be courteous, when posting an affiliate link, to acknowledge upfront what it is. But perhaps the community has been thriving on the silent use of affiliate links all along, and if so, I gladly stand corrected.' Assuming that wasn't meant to be sarcastic - and I assumed it wasn't when I read it - I don't think anyone should take too much umbrage?

If someone takes the time out to post a deal here and he / she gets a little something out of it other than our gratitude I don't have a problem with that. I trust people here to have the good of the community at heart and anyone who didn't would soon be rumbled anyway. So , in other words Reid, please post away!

Not interested in the kick processor but Sphere looks interesting. Cheers!

Yes it does seem odd. I wasn't expecting so few synths. I've got them in Reason 10 but I'm more used to working in CbB so it would have been nice to have some of them there too - though Europa is there as a standalone plugin of course

You tease! I saw free and I bit! 🙂

Yep installed and working here too. Not very exciting without the more interesting instruments I already have in Reason 10 but hey free is free and the bass synth is new if a bit dull judging by the presets 🙂

Ah thanks - yes I was looking through the site this morning and noticed base prices and worked out that they were as low as you could go with points. I'm very tempted by Desert Winds now I have a good collection of points but just need it to come down a bit more. I loved that when I heard it on release and I have still not heard a better duduk (my favourite instrument!)

Thanks Esteban No probs Larry - the crown is still firmly in place 🙂

I think Rack VST only came with 11?

Tempting but don't want it to mess with my full Reason 10 installation - anyone know whether there are any issues?

I finally managed to get Halion working on my PC so took the plunge - had a quick run through the sounds - all a bit samey but that's fair enough given its intent! A good buy for around a tenner - wouldn't have paid £40 for it though Annoyingly I forgot I had APD points to spend - still got a few more now 🙂

This is very tempting but I'll wait to see if it gets more affordable 🙂
