If you don't like its transformations, or if you just want to check out some alternatives, the 'Dice' button shuffles the target parameters under the covers.

#Omnisphere 1 Patch#

On the face of it, the Orb is aВ circular control that induces tonal changes to any patch without making demands on the user in terms of understanding. Next up is the most innovative enhancement. Granular Zoom: This page gathers all the parameters of Granular Synthesis around aВ central graphic that does aВ pretty decent job of representing the depth and density of the sample grains. The best database of synth patches I've ever played just got even better. you name it, there are new and stylish examples here.

Ode To Gary: described as aВ tribute to Gary Numan, again using only the DSP oscillators, this rich polysynth patch is constructed out of detuned Harmonia oscillators, with further oscillators faded in by the mod wheel.Д¬omplex evolving pads and psychoacoustic atmospherics, addictive arpeggios, every synth type known to man, acoustic and ethnic instruments, spooky choirs. Triplet Wobbler: uses no samples, just aВ layer of DSP oscillators with the Waveshaper's Crusher and Reducer both drafted in to create aВ full, hardвЂ‘edged wobble bass. Whispers Of Doom: AВ drone of epic proportions, this is an ominous soundscape of unsettling groans and whooshes adrift in aВ dark sea of reverb. At aВ touch of the mod wheel, the atmosphere turns positively scary, thanks to the introduction of polyphonic bitвЂ‘crushing. There Will Be Pain: AВ tense string patch in which members of the orchestra deviate from the path of conventional tuning as the Harmonia oscillators' levels and detunes are modulated. Put simply, Harmonia is aВ process that multiplies an oscillator up to four times here it boosts both of the patch's layers, giving, in effect, 10 oscillators - or aВ throbbing backingвЂ‘track from one finger! Machine Of Malice: This is aВ chugging patch layering aВ 'Brutal Moog' sample with aВ HarmoniaвЂ‘rich noise sequence. Conscious that entire afternoons are lost in this way, for brevity's sake I'll confine my observations to just aВ few instant favourites: Identifying the members of the latest collection is as simple as typing '1.5' into the patch browser's search box. It's surprisingly tough to rank the update's content in order of preference, so I'll start with the most generous: the addition of 780 extra patches, pushing Omnisphere's database beyond the 5000 mark! As the synth's 'STEAM' engine has been boosted (in the oscillator department) by this upgrade, many new patches elect to demonstrate this rather than drawing from the core sample library. When it appeared, 1.5 was followed in rapid succession by two further bugвЂ‘fixing updates, so the version discussed here is actually 1.5.2.

Thanks to enticing Youtube demos of a mysterious 'OrbвЂќ and details of an iPad application, plus rumours of aВ host of new patches, we users watched our calendars avidly until the Promised Day in February.

#Omnisphere 1 update#

In aВ world where you rarely get owt for nowt, this free update was keenly anticipated.

That's overвЂ‘simplifying things aВ tad, though, and to get aВ better appreciation, IВ recommend aВ leisurely read of the December 2008 SOS review ( /sos/dec08/articles/spectrasonicsomnisphere.htm). Individual patches consist of two layers, each with extensive timbral and modulation capabilities, effects and filters. Spectrasonics' Omnisphere is aВ multitimbral virtual instrument whose patches are based on aВ 40GB collection of varied, often remarkable audio recordings, paired with aВ powerful DSP synthesizer. Click the ball (or touch the surface with your finger if using Omni TR) and then spin it around the circle to generate timbral changes. The Orb as it appears from within Omnisphere. Spectrasonics bring yet more goodies to the Omnisphere party, aiming to make their highly acclaimed synth even better.
