What is the suggested way to set up HALion with Reaper? I’d like to make sure if I only need one instance of the VST or if it matters if I use multiple instances. My issue is sometimes with playing multiple presets at the same time. Once I have the VST set up and MIDI recorded one or more tracks and then I would render to audio. I am trying to figure out the best way to set up tracks and record the MIDI from the VST on separate tracks and sometimes play or record 2 to 8 presets at the same time for a layered sound. Reaper never seems to have an issue with overloading CPU usage from what I can tell for the same setup. I know that Reaper handles CPU much better than Cubase 9.5 and from what I have seen Cubase with an instance of HALion Sonic or SE with 8 or more slots loaded will overload the CPU and hard disk meter randomly even when I am not playing or recording. I’m not sure if it is better to create one instance of HALion or multiple instances with one preset per instance. I'll figure it out one of these days.I would like to get feedback from others who create their own projects and songs for the following. In my defence I am not a champion numpty, but did get the runner up prize LOL and the set up of the outputs does make sense to me, it is just after I have set the links and selected the various outputs and I press 'OK' I close down, re-open and it's gone back to the factory setting. After installing all the pile of DVDs that came with Komplete, I didn't have it in me to then faff about trying to fix the issue and thought, OH well, at least the instruments in my various templates will be loaded, so it is no big deal to reconfig the outputs. But I once upgraded Kontakt by way of buying Komplete and I thought all I need do is make a note of where my existing Kontakt content is, install the new version that came with Komplete and off I go, but nope, wouldn't have it. Yes well that was my plan, have a saved template. I almost have to re-learn how to set up the outputs each time I come around to it, but once you set it up you can save the result as the default. It is light years ahead of the competition, love it or loathe it. I also have Kontakt, but I simply cannot get on with the interface, and trying to figure out the output routing is beyond me, it is so unintuitive - note to NI, get it sorted will you, please, Halion, GA are so easy to configureĪgreed, but it's worth getting to grips with it. Question for Halion FM lab alternatives - is FM lab actually good compared to the alternatives, and what are the alternatives? Question for Cubase users - do you feel it’s worth getting the full versions of Groove Agent 5 and Halion 7 or do you use other 3rd party drum and sound libraries? I might want Halion 7 for just those 2 things alone! But it seems a bit pricy and strange that you can’t upgrade from the SE versions in Cubase. I’ve downloaded the trial of Halion 7 and I’m really liking it so far, particularly the FM lab and the envelops that can multiple points in them, not just the usual ADSR. I just want an 808 kit (got that in Sitala which I love), some realistic jazz drums and world/ethnic percussion (I’ll post another question on that later). Groove Agent 5 seems OK but I’m not convinced that upgrading to the full version is necessary for me. I’ve downloaded the trial and I’m quite getting into it and with the current cross grade option I feel like going for it.īut, I had a bit of a shock! It looks like you can’t upgrade from the SE versions that come with Cubase to the full versions of Groove Agent 5 and Halion 7. I’m a long time Logic user thinking of getting Cubase - I’ve not used it for many years and felt like trying it out again.
