Aug 17, 2016 Omnisphere includes a morphing wavetable function, which is what Serum does, though they might sounds a little different, I for one don't like giant libraries, so there is also that to consider. Jun 23, 2019 Hi. I am an omnisphere owner who loves the sound presets and expansion presets from third party. My question is am seeing more and more third party presets maker making a requirement to have Keyscape along with omnisphere for the presets to work. Simply put, this ground-breaking feature makes using Omnisphere feel just like using a hardware synth! By bridging the physical experience gap between software and hardware, users gain intuitive control of Omnisphere by using the familiar layout of their supported hardware synth.
On Windows XP, the Spectrasonics folder is located here:

Documents And Settings is normally a hidden file. To 'Show Hidden Files' go to Start Menu/Control Options/Folder Options//View tab. Select the 'Show Hidden Files and Folders' option and hit 'Apply'
The data files for Omnisphere are stored in your STEAM folder. When you update your patches or soundsources, you are updating files in your STEAM folder, which was created when you originally installed Omnisphere. Your STEAM folder is located inside your Spectrasonics folder. See the instructions below to find your Spectrasonics folder. Inside your Spectrasonics folder you'll find STEAM, which may be the STEAM folder, or it may be an alias (Mac) or Shortcut (Window) to the STEAM folder.
On Mac, the Spectrasonics folder is located here:
Macintosh HD/Users/<Your Username>/Library/Application Support/Spectrasonics
From Mac OS X 10.7 and higher, Apple have made the User - Library folder a hidden folder by default. This is to stop general Mac users fiddling with settings, however, music makers will require using this folder from time to time.
Please see the handy article below on how to unhide your User Library folder in Mac OS X 10.7 or higher
On Windows Vista and Windows 7, the Spectrasonics folder is located here:
C:ProgramDataSpectrasonics
On Windows XP, the Spectrasonics folder is located here:

Storing sound files on a secondary drive
If you are wanting to store your Omnisphere audio files on a second hard drive, you can put the Spectrasonics/STEAM folder onto your second drive. You will then need to create an alias or 'short cut' to this location on your main Mac or Windows drive. You can create an alias (Mac) or a short cut (Windows) by right-clicking (ctrl+click for Mac users) the STEAM folder and selecting it from the menu.
Once you have done this, you will then need to either locate or create the following folder on your main drive:
On Mac, the Spectrasonics folder needs to be created here:
Macintosh HD/Users/<Your Username>/Library/Application Support/Spectrasonics
On Windows Vista and Windows 7, the Spectrasonics folder needs to be located here:
I Don' T Like Omnisphere Download
C:ProgramDataSpectrasonics
On Windows XP, the Spectrasonics folder needs to be created here:
C:Documents And SettingsAll UsersApplication DataSpectrasonics
You will then need to move the STEAM alias folder (or the STEAM short cut folder) into the Spectrasonics folder on your main drive.
Note: On Mac, once you have placed the 'STEAM alias' folder on your main drive, you will need to rename it removing the word alias from the file, otherwise it will not work. You should now have a 'STEAM' folder on your main drive that is pointing to its actual location on your second drive.
Now when you close and re-launch your host application, Omnisphere should be pulling the audio files from off of the second hard drive. I Don' T Like Omnisphere Video

I Don' T Like Omnisphere 2![]()
I'm looking to invest in a new synth plugin, something with wavetable synthesis capabilities. I was heading towards Serum but I hear so much good stuff about Omnisphere 2 that I am also considering this as an option. Obviously there is quite a big price difference (and omnisphere offers a lot more) so I want to be sure the extra is worth it. I make a variety of genres and my DAW is Ableton live. One thing I need to be confident about is my macbook pro's ability to work well with the new vst. My laptop specs are 2.2GHz i7, 16Gb RAM and a 1Tb SSD. Omnisphere minimum required spec is a 2.4 GHz processor.
Can people comment on the 2 synths an also on whether you have experience of running omnisphere 2 on a similar spec system. Cheers
