DHPlugins' HALO 2 synthesizer, offering limitless sound design possibilities and a visually intuitive and creative workflow, is now 54% off, priced at $45. This highly anticipated sequel to HALO VSTi features enhanced functionality including a voice-assignable arpeggiator, sample FM mode, and loop editing. A refined user interface and user experience deliver even more updates, including sampler frequency modulation, split-channel arpeggiator, sample unison, precise sample loop editing, and bitcrushing. The user audio import system has been completely redesigned for greater flexibility, allowing modulation with other user audio files.


With its visual and creative workflow, HALO-2 redefines the space between audio and synthesis. HALO-2 combines meticulously crafted resampled audio with numerous synth layers, processing, and FX to easily create massive basses, soaring leads, lush pads, stabs, and more. A ​​vast library of presets can be directly inserted into your project or used as a starting point for inspiration, while the extensive filters, FX, and modulation options allow you to create entirely new sounds with just a few clicks. Unlike many romplers, HALO-2 lets users add their own custom audio files for limitless sound design possibilities, or load one of the ever-growing expansions, each with its own unique theme and sonic character. If that's not enough, the HALO FX plugin, included with HALO-2, provides all the filters you could need.
A hybrid synth/sampler/rompler.

From massive kicks to lush liquid pads, HALO-2 offers over 430 meticulously crafted presets, 300 sample banks, and a variety of expansions. Each sample bank is meticulously crafted by DHPlugins, using a variety of hardware and software synthesizers, FX, and processing, then layered with HALO's built-in synthesizer, original filters, FX, and unique modulators to create complex, raw, high-quality, and playable sounds. A versatile sound palette for any application.


Samples, Synthesis, Modulation, FX...

At the core of HALO are the Sample, Sub, and Synth layers. The combination of samples and synthesis allows for massive sound generation with unparalleled weight, clarity, definition, width, and grit. With over 300 sample banks to choose from, a new sample and synth unison engine, 4 multi-filters, 3 modulators, 4 FX units, 4 distortions, an audio FM engine, and an assignable arpeggiator, HALO is a unique sandbox for creativity. The random preset generator assigns localized random buttons to all modulators, wave shapers, sample banks, and the arpeggiator, making it easier than ever to create unique presets.


Arpeggiate Your Sounds

The assignable onboard arpeggiator elevates HALO-2 to a whole new dimension of audio creation. Featuring a random melody generator, simply select a scale and press the random button to easily create new, unique melodies, riffs, and progressions. The arpeggiator can be assigned to any combination of sampler, sub, or synth, allowing users to arpeggiate their own samples over a bed of synthesis, or vice versa. You can practically create an entire song with HALO-2 alone. The custom preset browser allows users to save and recall their own ARP settings, or browse the existing HALO library of over 30 presets and scales.


Sample FM, Distortion, Crush, Mangle! One of the most outstanding upgrades to HALO-2 is its sampler FM engine. This unique feature allows you to modulate your sample bank or user samples with a synth (square and triangle waves), a factory sample bank, or another user sample file, enabling subtle modulation or complete audio file mangling! Combined with four distortion modes (Warm Saturation, Amp Style Drive, Customizable Waveshaper, Crush), the improved sample bank editing including loop point manipulation, and the synth FM engine, HALO-2 takes core sound design possibilities to another level.
