With a cornucopia of creative capabilities, including a top-notch synth section, advanced tools and an inspiring sound library, HALion 4 is a truly universal tool for producers, sound designers musicians alike. The future-proof sample engine and a modular and efficient workflow approach, make HALion 4 an indispensable tool for creative professionals.

HALion 4 is now being shipped to our distributors worldwide* and is also available in the Steinberg Online Shop.

*Availability of HALion 4 at local outlets may vary regionally.

Thank you Matthias! A long wait…(5 years) …finally here. Happy Day!

Can you please explain the process for Halion 3 owners to purchase for $99

a) from distributor

b) online

when you purchase online is it downloadable version or is it still a box/DVD in the mail…perhaps with all of the content it will only be DVD i am not sure.

online there is no option to purchase currently in the steinberg store…

many thanks,
Blackout

Just bought it (upgrade from HALion Sonic).
I think the PDF is in the installer. Not sure though, I will install it this weekend.

Hi, I’m planning to upgrade to Halion 4 from Halion 3, but I also have Cubase 6 with the full version of Halion Sonic on a trial license on its DVDs. Is there any way I can avoid the nearly £9 of carriage for the boxed version of H4 by downloading the Halion Sonic upgrade and using the Halion Sonic DVDs that come with Cubase 6 for the large content libraries?

Ta,

Hello

Do you know when the upgrade Halion 3 to Halion 4 will be available in Canada ? and also what would be the best way to clean all the SONIC and Halion 3 stuff from my setup … I know that I can go in the vst folder and delete and also in the plugin setup inside Cubase 6 but maybe you know of a fast and sure way to get everything out.

Thanks and have a nice day.

Where in Canada do you live? You should have long and mcquade locations nearby, I know they are all over Canada. I ordered my copy through them over a month ago for $107 and received it 2 days later.
