At Superbooth 2018, we talked with Spectrasonics head Eric Persing about Omnisphere 2.5, a free update that introduces some impressive new features.
May 03, 2018 The new version 2.5 vastly expands the synthesis capabilities of Omnisphere by doubling Omnisphere’s voice architecture to Four Layers per patch! Each patch can now utilize up to 12 envelopes, 8 LFOs and the Modulation Matrix has been doubled to 48 modulation routings. We are happy to announce the release of a major update of our flagship software synthesizer, Omnisphere®. With the new version 2.5, Omnisphere becomes the first software synth in the world to offer a Hardware Synth Integration feature, which transforms over 30 well-known hardware synthesizers into extensive hands-on controllers that unlock Omnisphere’s newly expanded synthesis capabilities. May 29, 2018 NKS preset browser packs for Omnisphere 2, Trilian, Serum, and Nexus updated with patch previews and preset browser banks for quicker access and workflow in Maschine and Komplete Kontrol.
Omnisphere 2.5 is the first software synth to offer a Hardware Synth Integration feature, which goes way beyond MIDI-mapping to let you use your hardware synth as a hands-on controller for unlocking Omnisphere’s newly-expanded synthesis capabilities.
