Hey I just started producing recently, I bought Cubase Artist 12 so I only have the VSTs it comes with (Halion Sonic SE, Retrologue 2, Padshop 2, Groove Agent SE 5) and some free ones from here and there and I need more instruments/sounds. I just saw Absolute 6 went on a 50% sale and my understanding is that it’s a bundle of a lot of VSTs/sounds from Steinberg. Do you think it’s a good purchase as a starting point? Again, I’m quite new so I’m trying to make sense of things, any advice would help!
I think there is a trial period with every Steinberg product. You can try them out and see for yourself.
From my experience with the trial, I only tried Halion 7 and its a powerhouse and has vast amounts of usable presets.
There is no Trial for Absolute which makes sense, since it’s a bundle of VSTs, but I am fairly sure that there is a trial for each individual VST in Absolute.
So in essence I believe you are correct, just not a trial for the bundle itself.
