Accessing HALion via an Instrument Track
Proceed as follows:
1. On the Project menu, open the Add Track submenu, and select "Instrument".
The Add Instrument Track dialog opens.
2. On the instrument pop-up menu, select HALion.
3. Click OK to create the instrument track.
4. Click the Edit Instrument button in the Cubase Inspector to open the HALion
control panel.
HALion is now set up as a VST instrument in Cubase. For more details about the
handling of VST instruments, see the Cubase Operation Manual.
Selecting Outputs
HALion loads with a stereo output configuration by default. However, you can use up
to 32 stereo outputs plus one 5.1 output in Cubase. This allows you to route all 64
program slots to a dedicated Cubase Mixer channel.
To make these outputs available, proceed as follows:
1. Open the VST Instruments window.
2. Click the output button for the HALion instrument.
3. Activate the required outputs.
Cubase automatically creates a MIDI track for each additional output and adds a
channel to its Mixer. You can now route HALion programs or layers to these outputs
for further signal processing within Cubase.
Using HALion in an AU Compatible Application
You can use HALion in an AU host application (e. g. Logic). The AU version of HALion
is installed in your AU plug-ins folder and lets HALion work in an AU environment
without any performance loss or incompatibilities.
For Logic Pro, proceed as follows:
1. Open the Track Mixer and select the instrument channel that you want to use.
2. Click in the I/O field, and select the AU Instruments submenu.
3. On the Steinberg submenu, select HALion.
4. Select Multi Output or Stereo from the submenu.
HALion is now loaded as an AU instrument.
