Imagine your dream sampler. A sampler that is seamlessly integrated into your computer. No rack space, no MIDI or audio cabling mess, no sample media chaos. Total recall inside each song you do, and a user-friendly archive function. That loads up to 128 instruments at once, 16 of which are simultaneously playable. That lets you assign sounds to 4 stereo, 4 mono and 5.1 surround outputs, giving you a total of 18 outputs. That offers easiest handling thanks to drag & drop, pristine sound quality with 32 Bit/96 kHz support and unrivalled modulation capabilities. That includes a powerful disk streaming engine that allows you to load sample libraries in all common formats (from AKAI through E-MU to GIGA) that are much larger than the RAM available on your system. And has fantastic sounding filters powered by Waldorf.

Fixes

equals start offset
- The loading time of HALion has been reduced when HALion is
instantiated
- OSX: loading projects created with previous HALion AU versions
would fail. Fixed.
