I did remove the desktop shortcuts from my other DAWs though. Lol!! I haven’t got the balls to do that. I have uninstalled every single other thing… As long as it keeps the same GUI and way of working around the program, we will be in good hands. To think, things can only get better with new version upgrades too! I can’t wait to see what else gets brought to the table in HALion 5. I have uninstalled every single other thing, except for my UAD plugins and I am getting more work done now than I ever have with all the other installations I had on my system. I couldn’t have worded it better myself and what you stated above is exactly what I am doing. Cubase 7 does everything that you’d ever need a DAW to do and Halion 5 is sort of a “sane” version of Reaktor 5 so I’m loving this combination!! Thanks for your help man!! - Stephen Cubase 7 and Halion 5 fit the bill perfectly. This is the year that I told myself to just stick with one DAW, and one super VSTi and that’s it!! It seems to be working because I’m more focused on learning to use a minimum of tools and getting the maximum out of them. I’m sick of going back and forth between a million different VSTi and dealing with certain limitations that pop up in each of them. I really like the fact that you can literally do anything you can imagine and more under one roof. Even still, I have way much content making Halion 5 a “no joke” sound design solution.
Unfortunately I’m not able to download the Halion 4 library so I seem to be short on that part of the Halion library, so I might ask Steinberg Tech for assistance with this one. No problem, glad I could help! Now go enjoy HALion 5’s awesomeness!
