We quickly interrupt your regularly scheduled thread to bring new folks the following message

For those, mainly new folks, reading this thread but that do not have HALion Sonic SE or have it but haven't figured out out to get GM sounds to use in it, read the following recent thread on that topic. I would suggest you get the "combo" before Steinberg figures out they are really, in essence, giving away a free GM player WITH a GM sound set and yes Halion Sonic SE, when set to GM mode, is GM compliant (maybe not fully GM2 or GS)

Back to OP

If you you mean has anyone got SampleTank 2.5 and Halion Sonic (or HALION full or Halion SE) to work in GM mode in BIAB? Short answer is yes I have but, as mentioned above, with ST 2.5 you need to load up a config file each time. An you have to manually select drums on Channel 10 in ST even when using Omnisynth2 in ST 2.5. While you can load Omnisynth 2 ST 3 and ST 4 as a sound set - it will not work as a GM set. ST 3 and ST 4 DO NOT HAVE ANY GM modes or sound sets, other than Omnisynth 2, so no way (yet) to use then as GM "players" or module. You can use ST 3 and ST 4 in BIAB but you have to manually set each sound on each part for each channel.


If you you mean within the VSTi version of BIAB, has anyone got SampleTank 2.5 and Halion Sonic (or HALION full or Halion SE) to work in GM mode? I have no idea I don't use it but from a previous thread I'm fairly certain you have no control over what it uses, its a fixed GM set and it sounds like the BIAB CoyoteWT (aka MS GS wavetable) set.
