![]() They desperatly need to add some form of indexing/tabbed system to organise libraries into groups/categories. NI's Kontakt improvements have been glacial. (I suspect that's true for most of us here.) The MIDI modules in HALion range from standard arpeggiator modules to more dedicated modules that trigger specific events or deliver specific modulation signals. HALion comes with a collection of high-quality studio effects. I must admit, I'm only just getting a handle on the Synchron player, and I'm very much liking it so far.Īs you can tell, I've got way more libraries than I need now, so anything I purchase now is for giggles rather than any real need. The Library Creator allows you to create your own instrument libraries. I rather like it.īut my biggest investment in the non Kontakt world was when I got a terrific deal on the VSL Synchronised Special Edition Bundle, which, due to the arrival a 20% discount voucher during their intro sale, I bought for close to half price. ![]() I also picked up Iconica Ensembles during a sale - which uses Halion. HALion Sonic 7 is your new free player for sample libraries, synthesizers and hybrid instruments, created with HALion 7 by users, sound designers or professional companies. I've also bought Hollywood Orchestra, and a couple of UVI products. Thinking about it, I think I may have had Ivory I before Kontakt. Most of my sample libraries are for Kontakt, though my first real foray into the non kontakt world was the original Synthogy Ivory, which I've since upgraded to Ivory II. Being concerned with users who won't buy something in other formats is IME not worth it. So if you're gonna go Kontakt, do it for the multliple outputs or scripting or built-in effects. For more expensive libraries it probably matters less because people looking to spend $100 or more on a virtual instrument probably got Kontakt somewhere along the way. They exist.įor free stuff, it doesn't seem to matter at all - Meatbass had a separate Kontakt version, and the Sforzando version gets somewhat more downloads in Sforzando than the cello which has with Sforzando and Kontakt in one download. There are people who will not buy an instrument that will require them to use a new, unfamiliar plugin. IME having Kontakt + Sforzando vs just Sforzando boosts sales of lower-cost stuff modestly, but it's not a huge difference - maybe 10% at most. If you want to see it in action first, have a look at Doms walkthrough video. We really hope you enjoy this instrument and you have fun playing with it. Also, Swirly Drums got a Kontakt version, I'm not sure if the dev wants to be mentioned here, but a user here as well. we just launched a new free library called Colors Free for HALion Sonic 7 and HALion 7 together with our partner Cinematique Instruments on our website. Several of the free SFZ instruments I've made open source also got Kontakt versions made by bigcat, and the old free cello also had a bigcat Kontakt version included. I can share some information from the other side you might find useful.
