Hello!
I just saw the 50% off sale for the full HALion 7 instrument, I’m a Cubase 13 Pro owner, and have the current (7.1.0) version of HALion Sonic. It appears that I can get the full version for $49.99 but before I pull the trigger, is this correct for my upgrade level? Thanks so much, Happy July, and Happy 4th of July to my fellow music makers!
You should match the exact name of the product license you own to the update you’re considering.
If you have the included Halion Sonic I don’t see that on the buy page.
Do you mean " HALion Sonic 7 Collection"? It is not Full version HALion 7, but only HALion Sonic 7 with sound content included(maybe 35G content). I think you cannot build HALion instruments (which the full version HALion 7 do ).
I am confused by there is no price shown for “Update from HALion Sonic 7 to HALion Sonic 7 Collection”, but only “Update from HALion Sonic 3 to HALion Sonic 7 Collection”. The price are same?
There is no upgrade path from Halion Sonic 7. If you want the Halion Sonic Collection or the full Halion 7 you need to buy the full version outright. Halion Sonic 3 was a different product and the equivalent of the current Halion Sonic 7 Collection. The entire lot was renamed when 7 came out so its a bit confusing, but basically Halion Sonic 7 is by itself, there is no upgrade available from it.
Just like Groove Agent SE, there is NO upgrade path to the full version from the ‘freebies’ included with Cubase…
EDIT - While I was replying to this, someone in the Cubase forum just explained this exact thing to another user: Halion 7/Extreme 13 PRO - #5 by Martin90
