STEINBERG HALION STRING EDITION 2

HALion String Edition 2 is a breathtakingly realistic replication of a string orchestra, shoehorned
into an easy-to-use VST instrument featuring state-of-the-art HALion 3 technology. Though chock
full of solo and ensemble double-basses, cellos, violas and violins sampled with high-end equipment,
this library is remarkably easy to navigate. One of Europe?s finest symphonic orchestras played
these instruments, and every conceivable standard technique is there for the asking. HALion String
Edition 2 gives you the tonal breadth and emotional depth of a string orchestra with unprecedented
authenticity. Be it for a classic composition or a contemporary rock/pop arrangement, the strings
sound you are looking awaits you right here.

New Features:
HALion String Edition 2 comes courtesy of a major revitalization effort: The direction strings featured
in Edition String Vol.1 have been overhauled and endowed with new high-quality solo strings programs.
And though the original VST instrument was certainly a sweet string machine, the new HALion 3.1
Audio Engine and the adjustable Real Ambience room sound certainly add more than just a touch of
tonal class to this revamped version. Groovy new features abound, from system resource-conserving
functions to real-time control of sound parameters.
