If the links don't work, you will have to create a support request in your MySteinberg account and request new links. I do not think these are secret links, so I am providing the ones that Steinberg Support sent me here. Download the ISO files for the product you need to re-install.Here's a quick run-down of the steps I followed: Anyway, I was able to use the ISO files to successfully re-install both products. So clearly, a fair amount of content simply was not present in those first installers. HALion 5 ZIP: 2.0GB, ISO images (combined): 12.8 GB (10.8GB difference).Absolute VST Collection EXE: 1.9GB, ISO image: 3.5GB (1.6GB difference).Upon downloading them, I immediately noticed how much larger the ISO images were than the installers available in my Steinberg Online Shop account:

When Steinberg responded to me, they sent me links to ISO files (these are copies of the disc images used to create the install discs for the boxed copies of the products). To solve this problem I had to log in to my MySteinberg account and open a support ticket with Steinberg by clicking My Support > Create support request. I was simply missing a whole lot of content. I am very familiar with Steinberg's software products, and I spent a couple of days scanning my hard drive for extra VSTSOUND files and importing them into HALion's library, but it did no good. Here are the names of some specific patches I had problems with, but there were many others: 12 String Acoustic, Xylophone, Zed Leppelin Kit. Sometimes a problem patch would appear to load (I wouldn't be prompted with an error message), but no sound would come out when I tried to audition the patch. In HALion Sonic 2, frequently when I attempted to load a patch I'd be greeted with an error message that said, 'Some audio files are missing.

Basically, once I had installed both Absolute VST Instrument Collection and HALion 5, I found that a large number of the presets wouldn't load due to missing sample files. But I was really stumped by this problem for several days.

Some of the most popular articles on this blog are about how to restore VST presets for a number of Cubase plugins, for example. I am very familiar with Steinberg's software product line and many of the installation-related issues people commonly encounter with their products.

There were also DMG files for the Mac versions of those products.)

#HALION FILES ZIP FILE#

This is really important to know, because if you happen to lose your email, you may be startled to find that unlike other Steinberg software you may own, you won't find installers for HALion 5 or the VST Instrument Collection listed either on the main Steinberg Downloads page or the Downloads tab of your MySteinberg account.ДЄnother thing to note is that at least when I purchased my copies, the files Steinberg made available to me were a single EXE file for Absolute VST Instrument collection, and a single ZIP file for HALion 5. These may be different from what you use to log in to your My Steinberg account. The link goes to the download page of the Steinberg Shop and requires you to sign in with your Steinberg Shop credentials.

Here's a rundown of the issues I had, and what I had to do to get things working properly.ДЄfter you order these upgrades from the Steinberg Shop and Steinberg processes your payment, you receive an Order Confirmation email from the Steinberg Online Shop that contains the activation code and download link for your product. , you get a discount on the VST collection, and if you already own the VST collection, you can get a discount on HALion 5.) These download-only upgrades were attractively priced, but I had some significant issues with both products once they were installed, and it took a fair amount of time to troubleshoot and fix them.
