great functions as a sofsampler
a god looking interface.
( I wish it was designed for DSP power)
IT EATS up the cpu on example pads
and sounds with sustain. and leave nothin left for big reverbs and other soft synths.
So I stick with the STS sample series that work with DSP´s in Pulsar.
I am also a happy owner of Reason.
I mostly use Reason on my Powerbook.
(like a when Im not home studio
)in Reason I can load samples after samples after samples + drummachines
+3synths a mixer and effects on my powerbook G3 400 MHZ !!!!
do that with Halion...I dont think so.
the day when Reason can load Akai sounds...it will sure kill the others.
So I dont use Halion
A friend of mine ordered the package
CPU goes R.E.D, ( On a fast machine)
But I am still happy
and working even harder with my Pulsar cards and will use VST for vocals
and REX files. and Reason..YES it will rock beside Pulsar
