When using BiaB with one GM synth, I use the Ketron SD2.
FYI, The Ketron SD2 modules is now replaced by the Ketron SD1000. It has 512 new orchestral sounds, far better than the SD2 sounds. I use this sound expander in my BIAB setup.
Fiddler, I've tried the Halion SE, but even though it was perfectly installed, I've never been able to make a sound. I ended up disinstalling it, as being a free product, there's no support for it.
As i have Halion Sonic in BIAB, and HS SE loads besides that in Cubase as default for GM and is working fine. 64bit location: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Steinberg\Shared Components.
There's no 32bit version, you'll have to jBridge the 64bit one ....
It works fine on my system with BIAB 64bit, see picture. It sounds quite like Halion Sonic itself .....
I can only think of eventual solutions: Probably not set to GM mode, it cannot find the vstsound file, or some output setting is not functioning right. Older versions of SE i read on a Steinberg forum had some output problems ... F
@ Musiclover Yes I am using Bandstand with Win 10 64bit with BIAB 64 and jBridge.
It seems that the Halion 3SE free version comes with no sound sets. You are expected to already have a version of Cubase installed which allows Halion to use the GM set that is included in Cubase.

Thank you. I vaguely remember trying to install it on windows 10 but that was 32 bit, no success, but would like to have a go now on 64 bit windows 10.
Did you have to take any additional steps to activate it, as researching this it seems that some people had to do a registry hack and add some keys to get it to work ok?

In your opinion, is it worth the money to replace the SD2 with the SD1000?
(I think the membranes in my wallet may be shrinking soon)
I use the free vstsynthfont64 (included with biab)and it's good enough for me. I found a free 4GB! GM soundfont / Sf2 to fill it. https://sites.google.com/site/strixsoundfont/dsoundfont scroll to the ultimate dsoundfont. 4 versions from lite to ultimate

With no doubt, my answser is yes. But take time to watch some vids on the net and read other user comments on the forums. Then you'll be able to decide. In general, sounds of the Ketron SD1000 are more precise than the SD2.

Thank you yet again, your reply motivated me to have another go again, to install Bandstand which now works fine in windows 10. I like the sounds in it too.
