![]() And I’m sure that this update will help continue the success story we’ve witnessed over the past half year.” ![]() “ Since releasing HALion Sonic back in June of last year, it has received accolades and recommendations from around the globe. “ With this newly released update boosting the performance, adding many intricate enhancements, more features and more content, HALion Sonic truly stands out as one the world’s premier VST instruments,” comments Matthias Quellmann, Steinberg’s product marketing manager for the HALion product range. Additional effects, such as the 28 legacy effects from HALion 3, as well as four new distortion modes in the filter type section, assignable key commands and improved standalone application are among the many new features and enhancements that HALion Sonic includes in its 1.5 update. The sample library was expanded to include 1.2 GB of new brass and woodwind instrument programs, while audio streaming and loading speed were optimized for consistent, smooth performance. The latest version of HALion Sonic provides 64-bit support for Mac OS X to address additional memory on Mac computers as well as General MIDI support including MIDI program change, preloaded chorus and reverb effect. Update 1.5 is now freely available as download from the Steinberg website. Adding brand-new features, enhanced functionality and performance as well as more sample content to its massive library make HALion Sonic the ideal tool for composers, producers, musicians and sound designers in virtually any production setting. ![]() SB Should’ve put more fanfare out for it’s release though, throw some teasers out… I think without the dongle it’s got to be more appealing for users of all DAWs.Steinberg today is pleased to announce a new update to its HALion Sonic VST workstation. So far, very much a winner for me… And finally… Dongle free, Apple Silicon compatible!! YAY! Not sure I can wrap my head around FM sound design though, but luckily there’s about 900 presets (If you set to ‘all’) to keep me busy - including lots of originals from the TX etc. Update process went smooth too, no complaints here - very happy and a chance to revisit some old favourites as i put HALion on the back-burner since C12. Crazy to say, but HALion 7 feels more lightweight than HALion Sonic did when you have it in the minimal views. new library views are very nice and I think the array of options and start page really helps neaten up the experience. Very pleased with the interface changes, the lack of scaling does suck - however, i’ve only used it on my macbook which is fine - Worried about how it’ll be on my 4k desktop monitor though… argh! After registration, it can take up to 24 hours until the free update is available. If you don’t see a voucher, please make sure that the eLicenser containing the license is registered in MySteinberg.
