Aloha R,
IMHO
Halion Sonic is more of a sample playback plug with some editing capabilities.
and some other great features.
And while you might be able to create some sounds from scratch,
HAL SONIC is not really suited to that purpose.
You cant even import aif or wav samples into it.
If you want to stick with Steiny plugs, what you want is the full blown ‘Halion’ plug
There you can do it all.
BTW
I’m having a wonderful time creating new and different sounds with
Padshop. And I don’t even have the ‘Pro’ version.
Good luck.
