Features of Halion Sonic 3
This multi-timbral 16-part instrument is ideal for making large-scale arrangements. The 3,000 sounds were created by Steinberg and Yamaha's experienced sound-designers. Among the effects, you'll also get a convolution reverb and an amp simulator. There are 24 filter types that can be morphed into one another. Sonic 3 is a handy tool for live performances (master keyboard with a laptop), as you can split your keyboard, define layers , and use single commands to toggle between multi setups.
