Giga vs. Halion

[dantonio]

I heard that Steinberg\'s new Halion sampler (vst instrument) is just like giga except runs on both a Mac and a PC. I run a mac protools/ logic sustem and would rather add a new dedicated mac sampler than a pc one.

Can you think of any reason why Halion is not the way to go?

for one it is well known that Halion on PC outperforms Halion on MAC by a wide margin, and then if you are going to go to a separate machine anyway, then Giga is probably a better option since it -currently- outperforms Halion.
