Managing Multis - Steinberg HALION4 Mode D'emploi

The Relationship between Slot and Program Table
The Program Table provides a list of all programs that are loaded into slots, as well as
programs that are not yet loaded but can be addressed by a program change.
When a program is loaded into a slot, it is also inserted in a free place in the Program
Table.
When replacing a program in a slot, the table updates accordingly. If multiple slots
have used the same program, all slots are updated with the new program.

Managing Multis

Multi-Program
Multis can load multiple sounds or programs and combine them. You can use multis,
for example, to layer several programs or to create split sounds by setting several
programs to the same MIDI input channel. However, the most common usage is to
create sound sets with different instruments set to individual MIDI channels.
A multi-program contains all plug-in parameters. When using HALion as a plug-in in
Cubase or Nuendo, these multis are listed in the Preset Management pop-up menu of
the host application. You can drag multis and programs from the Cubase or Nuendo
MediaBay to a slot in HALion.
When using HALion as a plug-in in a different host application, you can use either the
preset functionality from the host application, or the multi management features
provided by HALion.
Loading Multis
• Open the MediaBay and double-click a multi, or drag and drop a multi onto the
multi slot.
• Alternatively, click the "Load Multi-Program" button in the multi slot to open the
"Load Multi-Program" dialog, select a multi and click on OK.
Removing Multis
• To remove all programs of the current multi, click the "Remove All Programs"
button on the toolbar of the Slot Rack.
This also resets all slot parameters and removes effects from the slot busses.
However, AUX and Master effects are not removed.
Removing the programs from the slots does not remove them from the Program Table.
