Yes! Although the focus of Omnisphere is on cutting-edge timbres, there are many outstanding traditional sounds in Omnisphere. Our goal is to capture the 'sound within the sound' of an acoustic source by performing and recording it in unique and creative ways - even going as far as building crazy acoustic instruments from scratch! When Psychoacoustic soundsources interact with the powerful STEAM engine, the result is Organic Synthesis!ĭoes Omnisphere include any traditional sounds? The idea is to use sampling technology to create unique sounds in a totally organic way, instead of the standard approach of using sampling to emulate traditional instruments. 'Psychoacoustic' sampling is a new concept that we've been developing at Spectrasonics for a long time. Its primary focus is on producing unique new sounds, but it works equally well as a 'go-to' instrument for any production approach - from the most experimental to the most traditional.

Omnisphere is incredibly versatile and produces a vast range of sounds, from the organic to the electronic. What kinds of sounds does Omnisphere produce? Yes, Omnisphere is Atmosphere's successor. The core library in Omnisphere is gigantic - ten times the size of Atmosphere! In addition to sample-based synthesis, the STEAM Engine can create entire categories of cutting-edge new sounds with its many realtime synthesis technologies. Omnisphere is a completely new synthesizer and the first instrument to utilize our state-of-the-art STEAM Engine. What's the difference between Atmosphere and Omnisphere? STEAM is the latest in-house core technology from Spectrasonics - that is the foundation of Omnisphere as well as a whole new generation of Spectrasonics instruments like Trilian! It features a massive 40+GB core library, extensive synthesis capabilities, a fully featured arpeggiator with a unique Groove-Lock system for syncing with Stylus RMX grooves, over thirty built-in effects and much, much more! Omnisphere is an award-winning, remarkably versatile multi-timbral Power Synthesizer, based on Spectrasonics latest synthesis and hi-definition sampling engine called STEAM.
