Bought this bad boy almost 4 years ago. After doing some various scoring projects I've already managed to make my money back and then some. One of the best investments I've ever made.
I just bought the Omnisphere 2. This synth is absolutely amazing! It's worth much more than the money you pay. The library sounds are all you need really and it's so easy to use. You do need a fast computer with it, though. I am speechless at how good this instrument is. Bravo, Spectrasonic!
In my DAW, I only have three synths/plugins. Omnisphere, Trillian and Stylus RMX. Best software out there and all I need. Cant wait for Omnisphere V2. Big fan here Eric, keep up the amazing work.
Damn, my jaw dropped so many times during this video. What an incredible product. I wish all the success possible for you and your team and that I may one day get to use and learn this gem.
I just wanted to thank you for you and your team's absolute passion that went into creating this. It is by far my favorite music software to date, and I don't see that changing.
This has just raised the bar when it comes to production tools. Omnisphere blew me away and this just looks insane. Thank you for your unreal creation!
I've been watching you be awesome since the introduction of the D50 at Knotts Berry Farm back in the 80s. It's great to see you still holding court as the undisputed master!
holy shit!! great work eric and everyone at spectrasonics! can't wait to see how the assign parameters work now. I'm sure they'll be some new features there in this new UI.
Bought Omnisphere last week, I don't know squat about plugins or VSTi I managed to load it into reaper and get it working with an old Korg keyboard. This thing is an absolute beast , it seems bottomless as far as capabilities go. Anyone who can't make music with this should have their fingers removed. I haven't even touched on the features shown in this video and it still blows me away.
You said it would take a life time to explore Omnisphere ..... I can vouch for that. I'm still re-watching old videos to brush up on my Omnisphere skills. The best investment I ever made.
Eric, you look great! whatever you're doing(probably its working on omnisphere 2) keep doing that! Also, thanks for amazing synthesizer with endless possibilities, absolutely a fan of this! :D
Looking great, Eric! I've had Omnisphere for a few years now and have cranked out hundreds of little samples of patches, but I haven't even gotten 1/2 way through browsing all the patches, lol! Just the other day I was wondering if there would be an update soon, and bam, here's a whole new version. The updates look great, very useful and functional, and I've already emailed my Sweetwater rep to see when it will be up on their site for pre-order. Thanks for all you guys do, keep 'em coming!
You had me at adding my own sounds (surely WAV directly importable as well, not just AIFF), but then there was a lot of other killer stuff as well. Insta-buy! (really happy to get it for the "VIP" price)
There is definitely some forward-thinking stuff going on here. Bravo Spectrasonics. I'm not in the market for it but whoever is will definitely be equipped with some cool functions!
My secret sauce....at least the original version, look forward to this one as well. Imagine this in a hardware version built by Dave Smith under the Sequential Circuits imprint?
All you need is a D.A.W. of your choice and all 3 Spectrasonics software and then your set. Omnisphere is the best soft synth hands down!! and Trillion Bass sounds are real full,warm, and amazingly accurate sounding, not to mention you can tweak as much as you want on Trillion to. Just.. . Hands down Spectrasonics is the best! and people.. . pay for your software so they can come out with diff. product with our support man. I would like to see spectrasonics come out with some effects. you already know they would be top shelf products. and not a lot of effects, just a couple like a Convulution Reverb and a nice Delay. keep up the good work Spectrasonics.. . I support you guys to the fullest!!
Eric is a true synth programming legend. Great stuff!!! Dumb question...with demand for a "soft" D50 growing, why doesn't Spectrasonics release a set of D50 "like" patches that match the original 128 on the D50? I mean Eric owns the rights to those 128 sounds and he is an ace programmer. Or is it more complicated that this?
What Omnisphere needs to implement is some kind of ability to save stacks of sounds. When creating soundtracks for example, in a movie setting you would want a stack of sounds for various scenes. I find myself having to either take written notes on the sounds I'm using for each scene or do a screenshot of the names of the sounds I'm using. If you could just save out patches stacks and come right back to them while exploring other sounds this would be a huge benefit and time saver, especially if you could label the stack saves with scene names. Omnisphere is definitely geared toward the soundtrack arena so to me, this is a no brainer update needed. Anyone else agrees? If so share and comment so that the folks at Spectrasonics get wind of this.
Hey there! Thanks for the feedback. It sounds like the behavior you're looking for is similar to the functionality of Omnisphere's Projects - take a look at this section of the reference guide for an overview of how Projects could be helpful in this situation: support.spectrasonics.net/manual/Omnisphere2/25/en/topic/browser-projects-page01 With any questions or further feedback, feel free to reach out to our Support team at info@spectrasonics.net!
SpectrasonicsVIDEO Thank you for answering my comment. A few videos later I did spot some body save a sound. My next question is there a keyboard which can put sounds into registrations so other keyboards can access your sounds in different registrations. I do think your software is the best I have heard, look forward to owning your software soon. Frederick
+SpectrasonicsVIDEO Will Omni need to call back to the origional audio file once I save it, or can I delete/move/rename etc my origional sound file once I save the Omnisphere synth?
***** When you load user audio, it is automatically copied and added as a user soundsource in the STEAM folder. You can delete/move/rename the original file without any issues.
It's getting to the the point where the sounds are so 'sick' that I feel a little bit 'disturbed' after listening. I just sit here shaking my head because, well, the absurdity of it all.
I'm mostly interested in the audio import, granular effect and the innerspace :3 these seems really great for soundscapes and original soundtracks, without having to sound too electro. Sound lock looks really awesome too, but I don't know how well it will work with more traditionnal sounds
Behind Eric is that custom made synth/omnisphere host/ipad holder/controller keyboard.... I thought is was just a one of a kind, one off synth and that it was supposedly given away to some lucky winner in a Spectrasonics contest last year or before... ?
+Cortney Warren DUDE ITS WORTH EVERY CENT. WORTH A BUY TIMES HUNDRED. i never have SO MUCH recommended to legally buy a software product. buy this stuff and youre set for a lifetime when it comes to sound. its awesome, these guys keep just delivering one little update after another, sounds are getting crazier all the time. hey, i hope by the time youre reading this you already own omni2.
3:55 when he plays it with the effect he should be playing exactly the same thing as before. You can still hear that it works, but to the average listener this can be confusing.
After taking a hiatus from music creation I finally decided to dive back in. Saddened to learn my omnisphere 1 will no longer install on my machine without shelling out for the upgrade :'(
got it..it's awesome!... just wish automap for my novation sl mk2 was mapped like yours Eric.. can you provide an automap file mapped for omnisphere 2?
this is awesome! Just bought it :)Hey Eric what patch are you using at 4:01? It sounds like a bright epic supersaw! I've tried to recreate it but I am still learning synthesis.
@ 0.55 whenn importing your own audio how do you ensure that is playing chromatically correct? Does it does this automatically? So you will be playing the correct notes?
Incredible. I just cant think why anyone would need anything else for there synthesis needs in the software realm. If they can build on the import of samples mode and bring in Time stretching and pitch shifting and a waveform editor that can chop and arrange the slices across the keyboard with layering and per key modulation/filter/LFO then i am sure it will appeal to an even wider audience
Yesterday, I resolved upgrade to Komplete 10 Ultimate for $399. But for $80 more I can have this? Consider me inKomplete, lol. Maybe one day I'll do it, but in the meantime, I HAVE TO OWN THIS.
Since it costs a lot it’s taken me quite a while to get around to upgrading from version 1 to Omnisphere 2. It’s a unique, amazing synthesiser and sound processor but still a tricky interface to navigate. I am personally not a fan of hidden detail and I find I still waste time in Omnisphere 2 trying to find feature x on menu or screen y. It’s a unique tool and I don’t regret my investment but you can see in their demos they are very proud of the accessibility of the patch/multi browser however I find myself just wanting a bit more similarly visible navigation elsewhere in the software. There’s nothing else like it for my theatre and ambient projects and I’m pleased I can just about afford it - it’s worth the money. edit: corrected typo “of” to “a”
It must be bad form to self-reply too often but I’ve just thought of one of my specific problems. Needing to click on tiny little horizontal lit up bars beneath a button to switch something off or on. They’re difficult to see and also to click. How about a “fat theme” with more visible, expanded lights as at least an interim solution? Omnisphere seems to have an oval look, making these bars as such would fit the current style and make them more visible.
best money i've spent in a while. You'll actually end up saving money, since your social life will go even further down the drain.

good one!
I do not understand the pun someone explain help please.
No need social life when there is a less dangerous thing to engage the brain with... :)
More true than I care to admit
This is one of the greatest pieces of software ever made.
You got that right Omnisphere is my babe. Did you finally get it?
These guys went to a radioactive cave to make the sounds and people complain about the 500 dollar price tag

The sound at 9:13 set off my google home. That was cool and unexpected.
best purchase of my life.
Is it me or does Eric look 10 years younger?
I think he lost weight 😃

That's Hollywood styled video editing. Lol

JBlongz Omnisphere 2 also includes the Legendary Fat Loss Plugin. Lookin' good Eric!
Bought Omnisphere last week, I don't know squat about plugins or VSTi
I managed to load it into reaper and get it working with an old Korg keyboard.

User samples is huge. so excited for this!
Omnisphere runs so much more smoothly through Reaper than it ever did using Pro Tools, which caused it to crash and lockup frequently.
Works great in PT11 in 64 bit mode
Pro fools
I'm really looking forward to this. Eric and his crew outdid themselves! Original audio great addition. A must upgrade.
Damn Eric Persing lost a TON of weight! Looking great now!
