I will leave the SE 3 version intact even though I don’t use it. Martin and Jaslan, thank you so much for your help! As long as a person has the paid HS 3 version, why would you even need the SE 3 version? Might it be best to uninstall SE 3 ? vstsound factory sound files under HS SE Pro but they do not load and the Manager does not show any errors or problems of any kind.

When I check the details in Stienberg Library Manager it shows 4. I tried reloading both VST instruments with the extensive 29 GB library again from Steinberg’s Download Assistant but it did not evidently load those missing patches from the HS SE Pro library. vstsound files to load back onto my system. I guess I need to know where I can find those particular. Of course they all play in both the paid and SE version but for some reason “HS SE Pro” sounds say they are missing when I try to play them in either HALion Sonic 3 plugin. “HS SE Artist”, “HS SE Basic”, “HS SE Basic”, and “HS SE Pro”. I believe these sound libraries came with the SE version. I have both versions of HALion Sonic 3, the paid version and SE 3 version.

The new, innovative three-band Resonator effect allows formant-filtering for various tonal modifications for beautiful vocal, string and brass sounds. New HALion 6 and HALion Sonic also offer a host of new instrument libraries, including The Raven Grand, and The Eagle Grand pianos, Hot Brass brass section, Studio Strings string ensemble sample library, Skylab and Anima synthesizers, as well as HALion Combi Library.
