Steinberg releases Trial version of HALion 4

-
Steinberg

Steinberg Media Technologies has released the trial version of HALion 4. The 60-day trial version is available through the Steinberg website and requires a USB-eLicenser dongle. The full retail version of HALion 4 is available through the Steinberg Online Shop and authorized Steinberg resellers for €349, including German VAT, and £295, including British VAT.

Combining sampling and synthesis technologies with mixing options, its unique morphing filter and FlexPhraser arpeggiator, the enhanced MegaTrig tool, more than 40 studio-grade effects and a vast library that spans over 1,600 sounds make HALion 4 an eminently powerful virtual instrument. HALion’s most prominent advantage is possibly the implementation of VST 3.5, with its innovative Note Expression for editing expression data polyphonically.

Features at a glance:

  • 32-bit floating-point Steinberg audio engine with up to 192 kHz, 32 stereo outputs and 6-channel surround support.
  • Flexible user interface for customizing and saving windows and screen sets.
  • Multi-monitor support for perfect overview of large projects.
  • Virtual Analog Synthesis Engine offers multiple oscillator types, additional sub and noise oscillators and cross-modulation support.
  • VST 3.5 and VST Expression 2 support for unique instrument articulation management and expression control on single-note level.
  • Flexible signal routing with free assignable buses per layer, virtual audio mixing console with 8 inserts per channel and 4 Aux sends.
  • MegaTrig for easy programming of playing styles and articulations without page-filling scripting.
  • Drag and drop for quick and easy sample mapping.
  • Unlimited undo/redo plus Undo History for hassle-free sound experiments.
  • Automatic on-the-fly mapping during import.
  • Outstanding library with more than 1,600 instrument sounds created by top sound experts at Steinberg and Yamaha.
  • 64-bit Disk-Streaming technology for high performance sample playback.
  • Integrated MediaBay sound management system for immediate access to the library.
  • Flexible Quick Controls per program and layer for instant access to sound and FX parameters and easy automation in the host.
  • Unique morphing filters seamlessly blend between up to four of the 24 filter types.
  • FlexPhraser module for dynamically driving beats and arpeggios, plus complex tonal phrases with automatic articulation switching.
  • Wide range of audio effects on board including REVerence convolution reverb to fuel each program and layer with up to 8 insert effects.
  • Advanced Cubase integration including seamless exchange of extended parameters like slice information and VST Expression Maps.
  • Comprehensive import compatibility of HALion 3 sounds (FXP, HSB) and common formats as Giga, EXS and Kontakt.
  • Professional standalone version included.
  • Cross-platform compatibility with PC 32/64-bit (VST 3, VST 2.4) and Mac OS X 32/64-bit (VST 3, AU) plug-in support.
