Target Users and Creation Process for Libraries

Before you create a library, you must decide who your target users or customers are. You could build a library that only HALion users can use, which gives you the freedom to build a macro page that is larger than the size that HALion Sonic supports, for example. However, this limits the number of potential users.

Most often, you will probably want to build your library so that it works with HALion Sonic SE, which means that it can be used by everybody. HALion Sonic SE is freely available for download on the Steinberg web site.

If you want to create a library for all users, you must export your program as a HALion Sonic SE layer preset. You can find the corresponding command on the Program Tree context menu.
