As a Christmas present for my kids, I bought the Novation Lauchkey Mini (comes with Ableton Lite) along with the Steinberg UR12 (which comes with Cubase AI8 which has Halion Sonic SE2). It was my understanding that the Halion was a VST instrument and would show up in Abelton. Thus far, I have not found a way to get it to show up. They are both 64 bit programs. I have tried to point to VST3 folder and every other folder I can think of to no avail. HALion Sonic brings the concept of all-in-one workstations to the virtual world. Create keyboard splits and switch to the dedicated player view for live performances. Featuring multi-core support, the efficiency provided by sample compression technology and the RAM Save Mode, HALion Sonic is the new creative powerhouse at the heart of your production.
