"Funky Steel guitar" preset makes Halion 5.1 to crash

“Funky Steel guitar” preset makes Halion 5.1 to crash.
As standalone or as plugin in Cubase 8.
Load the preset, play a few notes, and… crash!

Confirmed!

It happens in all programs which have the layer Fret Noises.
There is something wrong with the MegaTrig.

Exactly. That’s what I reported in the Cubase issue forum:

Also confirmed see … New Halion 5.1 Explodes playing live - #6 by BigAl - Virtual instruments - Steinberg Forums

Other instruments affected include - Spanish Guitar and Real Steel Solo.
On the Spanish Guitar I find just playing a C Maj chord can be enough to cause Halion to commit suicide.

Hello,

Could you please post your system specifications, on the Mac I cannot reproduce this.

Does sound like a legit issue. Please submit bugs with Steinberg if you haven’t already, folks. (I had been planning on buying Halion next month!)

And another PC user, Win 7 64bit. Installed 5.1 update with no problems. Tested in Cubase 8 and standalone. All seems very stable & I was fiddling for 2 hours without any crashes. I’d seen the bug report on here before I installed the update. So I left trying FunkySteelGuitar till the end. Took out Cubase instantly after 4 notes.

Me too

No problem here Im on a mac

The problem seems to be the condition - playing speed - in the MegaTrig Modul

with which I agree.

Hello all,

We have confirmed the issue, this is related to the MegaTrig module, it will be fixed in the 5.1.1 update on which we are working right now.

Best regards,
GN

Thanks

I updated to 5.1.1 on Yosemite 10.10.2 now I have this problem
