I’ve only made only a few posts in the forums, and when I have, they’ve been supportive of Steinberg, the main reason being that it works for me…but enough is enough! First they get everyone excited and reaching for their credit cards with the announcement of the awesome features of Halion 6, then …

Same concern here. Have been a good steinberg customer over the years and own nearly all the products but this one has got me thinking. I’m all for copy protection and security but this, getting rid of Halion 5 licence, is a step too far. Really don’t understand the objective of this. Have written …

Steinberg needs to respect our dollars. I agree that licenses, previously purchased, should not disappear with the purchase of an upgrade. There are a lot of users who evolve their systems slowly, or perhaps, run multiple systems (old and new) for backward compatibility. FREE MY OLD LICENSES!

It seems that my issue (with keeping my 32 bit H5 license), in addition to H6 64bit may be resolved. Steinberg Canada was very prompt in their reply, now I’m waiting to see the outcome. Will keep you posted (I have not authorized H6 yet).

Though I wish we hadn’t put through this “dilema”, all 's well that ends well… As of now, my issues have been resolved…I got my Halion 5 (32 bit) license…and… No problems in running H5 32 and H6 64 on Win 7 64 (on the same computer). I’m satisfied. Now, back to making music. Thanks to all who he…

Looks like 4 days for you, I’m on 5 and still waiting on support but Im UK. How many others I wonder? David

Add me to the list. I’m on day 5 in Europe. Apparently closer to the headquarters you are, longer it will take :frowning:

Hey Guys, so did you lose all of your H5 presets or do we have to do some thingamajig to transfer everything over. i have my entire HSO library running thru H5 and it took awhile to get that to work! I have not upgraded yet, but of course this is of concern to me for BC and other reasons of conve…

Re: Presets In my case, my H5 presets are in the default “myDocuments/vst3 presets/Steinberg…etc” The Halion 5 preset folder stayed intact, and there’s a new Halion 6 folder for presets… So I did not lose them…backup just in case!

After reading this thread I don’t think I’ll be upgrading as Ive also heard that there are problems not being able to use some of halon 3 samples-the choir samples there are excellent. Besides I have managed to find some excellent 3rd party vst’s which cover all the bases that HALion 6 seem to be …
