Steinberg HALion

Steinberg has announced version 3.5 of HALion, a new update to its award-winning HALion 3 virtual sampler VST instrument, now featuring support for 64-bit editions of Windows Vista.

“Because it adds compatibility to 64-bit Vista, HALion 3.5 can address vast amounts of memory, allowing many more additional instruments to be loaded simultaneously,” comments Helge Vogt, Steinberg’s Product Marketing Manager for Cubase and HALion. “This frees up even more creative potential because it puts even more instruments and articulations at the artist’s fingertips. And when used with Cubase 5 as the host application, and the 64-bit-ready MR816 CSX/X FireWire audio hardware, HALion 3.5 is a key part of our complete 64-bit production solution,” Vogt adds.

HALion version 3.5 will be available in Q2 2009 as a download for registered HALion 3 customers.
