Steinberg Halion Sonic

STEINBERG HALION SONIC

I'm a huge fan of Hypersonic 2.0 and always use it in my production. On laswt days I noticed on web new product of Steinberg: Halion Sonic it's something like "new Hypersonic" and looks and sound great so check it. 

First - requirements.
I don't know what cpu do you have but I have an old PC and I can have some problems with this VSTi. 
But there are requirements for Windows:
  • Windows Vista and Windows 7
  • Pentium/Athlon 2.0 GHz dual-core CPU
  • 2 GB RAM
  • Approx. 13 GB free of HD space
  • Display resolution 1024 x 768 (1280 x 800 recommended)
  • Windows DirectX compatible audio hardware (ASIO compatible audio
    hardware recommended for low-latency performance)

  • USB component port for USB-eLicenser/Steinberg Key (license management)
  • USB-eLicenser/Steinberg Key (not included)
  • Internet connection for license activation
