The addition of wavetables to the HALion mix is a very big deal, and Steinberg’s implementation is admirably straightforward and unintimidating. Of course, a new macro instrument, Anima, is included to show all this off in readily digestible form, dressing the Zone’s three oscillators, two LFOs and three envelopes up in a ‘proper’ GUI, and adding a superb arpeggiator and a ton of well-designed presets. With your wavetable set up, the playhead progression through it is controlled by the Position, Speed and Direction knobs, and visualised in a 2D oscilloscope or 3D topographical map. Waveforms can be duplicated, moved, copied and replaced by new samples, and you can even get hands-on with the amplitude and phase of the harmonics of each waveform in the Spectrum tab. The wavetable envelope is shaped by dragging the boundary markers between waves to stretch and compress them, and general playback speed, crossfades between waves, looping behaviour and more are all adjustable. On a more electronic tip, the Anima wavetable synth is covered in the main text, and SkyLab uses the Granular engine to come up with a huge library of gorgeous textures, soundscapes, ambiences and FX - it’s definitely our favourite of the bunch. It’s not about to replace your high-end string library in terms of flexibility and range of articulations, but it sounds great in its comfort zone. Studio Strings delivers quick and easy ensemble and solo orchestral strings for modern productions of all kinds. A decent array of matrix-assigned modulation sources and an arpeggiator make it more interesting than it looks. Hot Brass is a brass and saxophone ensemble instrument geared up for punchy, energetic riffs and stabs. Raven is more obviously appropriate for pop and other contemporary styles, while Eagle suits jazz, classical and solo work.
Both share the same interface - including controls for adjusting the Sustain Resonance, velocity curve, and release layer volume - and sound lovely. Raven and Eagle sample classical Italian and German concert grand pianos respectively, the first with six velocity layers, the second 12. It does not store any personal data.HALion 6 adds more than 25GB of new sample content in the shape of six scripted instruments.
