Thank you - it's my own cello (bought on Ebay) played by myself, I bought it a while ago for producing a library for MachFive and keep on making new samples with it.wagtunes wrote:Brilliant as always.

Question: Cello sample. Internal built into HALion 6 or from an external source? If external, may I ask what sample library it came from?
Simon, do you actually play the cello? What other instruments besides keyboard do you play?Sampleconstruct wrote:Thank you - it's my own cello (bought on Ebay) played by myself, I bought it a while ago for producing a library for MachFive and keep on making new samples with it.wagtunes wrote:Brilliant as always.

Well, I play cello tones and sample them, I can improvise a bit and produce a decent vibrato, get the flageolet thing going and play some other articulations too - but I don't actually play the cello, that would have taken many years to learn. I play soprano sax, picked it up again lately for a concert I had to do, now it's at the doctor's and gets a total refurb, can't wait to pick it up again - and I play many percussion instruments, used to be a drummer too in my teenager years, and I do a bit of guitar/harp/oud/psaltery, but also for sampling purposes only, not on any kind of professional level.wagtunes wrote:Simon, do you actually play the cello?

I'm in awe.
Thanks. Well, I don't want to monopolize the thread or send it too off topic but before I go, has their been any official word from Steinberg yet if HALion 6 is supported on Windows 7? I know it will work, but the last I looked, their specs don't support it and I don't want to have problems if I run into support issues with them telling me that Windows 7 isn't supported. I know they were revisiting this issue and was just wondering if a decision has been made yet.Sampleconstruct wrote:Well, I play cello tones and sample them, I can improvise a bit and produce a decent vibrato, get the flageolet thing going and play some other articulations too - but I don't actually play the cello, that would have taken many years to learn.

Ah, okay. So I guess I won't be getting HALion 6 until I'm forced to upgrade to another OS.Sampleconstruct wrote:Officially it's not supported as far as I know, what I heard is that the Halion 6 engine utilizes some component which is not present in Windows 7 and they can't re-write the Halion 6 code so that that certain component would become obsolete.
They will probably release a notation program which produces orchestral music and scores by itself, just select a style (e.g. cheesy, neo-romantic, Zimmer-like, John Adams, Steve Reich, Henze, Rihm, Schoenberg, Tschaikowsky, Stravinsky), then chose an orchestral instrumentation, success and fame factor, and BAM, hook up the printer, tie the score and the parts, hire an orchestra, easy...SJ_Digriz wrote:I can't tell folks how awesome being able to sample in stand alone mode is!!!!

This is some BS excuse and contradicts reports being made in here that Halion 6 actually works in Windows 7.Sampleconstruct wrote:Officially it's not supported as far as I know, what I heard is that the Halion 6 engine utilizes some component which is not present in Windows 7 and they can't re-write the Halion 6 code so that that certain component would become obsolete.

Apparently most features are supported but not all, inform yourself first maybe, then start ranting.Compyfox wrote:This is some BS excuse and contradicts reports being made in here that Halion 6 actually works in Windows 7.Sampleconstruct wrote:Officially it's not supported as far as I know, what I heard is that the Halion 6 engine utilizes some component which is not present in Windows 7 and they can't re-write the Halion 6 code so that that certain component would become obsolete.
According to SB's official forum guy from almost a week ago, an official decision would be made and posted within a week. It should be coming out anytime now. I will be truly shocked if they don't end up supporting Win7. Their own "we only support the last two OS's" statement was completely contridicted by the recent release of C9 which support....Win7.wagtunes wrote:Ah, okay.

Thanks for the info.
Any idea of which features are not supported?Sampleconstruct wrote:Apparently most features are supported but not all, inform yourself first maybe, then start ranting.Compyfox wrote:This is some BS excuse and contradicts reports being made in here that Halion 6 actually works in Windows 7.Sampleconstruct wrote:Officially it's not supported as far as I know, what I heard is that the Halion 6 engine utilizes some component which is not present in Windows 7 and they can't re-write the Halion 6 code so that that certain component would become obsolete.
When did the say that? I mean that they only support 2 OS versions?BassMasterK wrote:According to SB's official forum guy from almost a week ago, an official decision would be made and posted within a week.
