Introduction
This is the Operation Manual for Steinberg’s HALion Sonic. Here you will find detailed information about all the features and functions in the application.
Setting Up
You can use HALion Sonic as a plug-in for a number of host applications. Depending on the host application, you might have to make additional settings, or you might be restricted to a reduced parameter set, number of outputs, etc.
Selecting Outputs
By default, HALion Sonic loads with a stereo output configuration. However, you can use up to 15 additional outputs in the Steinberg DAW. This allows you to route all 16 program slots to a dedicated channel in the MixConsole.
