I installed Renoise on Mac OS X. Looks like a great program. I also have Cubase Essential 4 installed which includes the VST instrumetn HalionOne. I tried to get this instrument to work in Renoise. I can select the instrument but can’t select an HalionOne instrument/preset. The dropdown is missing. Also tried selecting a preset (.vstpreset), but they are grayed out.
When I use HalionOne in Cubase I can select a sound category and instrument.
So what am I missing here?
To clarify: the toolbar in the upper part of the window is missing. I already tried to delete HAlionOne and reinstall (and broke it doing so, but fixed it by manually copying the hsb files). But still the toolbar is missing in Renoise (I did the “Locate Contents” part to browse to the hsb files).
Hi Rinzwind,
Well, please correct if I’m wrong, but I believe that “Halion One” is a VSTi that can be used only in Cubase.
You can check it by trying Halion One in another hosts or asking to Steinberg support.
Halion One also causes headaches for users that use it in Cubase itself…
Perhaps this topic contains a clue that might work or at least explains why it does not work in Renoise if you cannot apply that trickery:
