can no longer load dark planet presets in cubase 10.5

mark_w_w · April 15, 2020, 11:11am

I’ve recently upgraded to cubase 10.5 and I can no longer load dark planet presets

I’ve tried reinstalling but the installer tells me there were no changes because they are already installed, but when I try to load any preset I get an error (screenshot attached) other instruments work ok

the sounds are installed here

C:\ProgramData\Steinberg\Content\HALion\VST Sound

has anyone else experienced anything like this ? Is there a fix ?

Hi,

Can you load the liberty from Halion Sonic SE, please?

Yes I can load the presets through halion sonic se and the full version of halion 6, just not from within cubase 10.5

Hi,

Can you load the library in HALion Sonic SE or HALion 6, when these are running as plug-in in Cubase 10.5?

This Dark Planet “software” was available just for a very short time. Later on it was possible to open the library in HALion Sonic (SE) and HALion, so you didn’t need this specific plug-in. The specific plug-in is not maintained anymore. Therefore it’s much better to open the library in HALion Sonic (SE) or HALion. The only one reason to own and use the specific plug-in is, if you open an older project, where you already did use the old plug-in.
