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. We are happy to announce the release of a major update of our flagship software synthesizer, Omnisphere®. In May, Omnisphere Version 2.0 was released with vastly expanded new synthesis and creative capabilities for sound. Version 2.1 is an update to the company's recent v2 upgrade of its flagship software synth. Burbank, CA - AugSpectrasonics has released Omnisphere 2.1 with a streamlined 'Sharing' feature for sharing user sounds and a new Library Publishing capability. There are far more in-depth reviews out there so I don't feel the need to add to the list with one more suffice to say that 2.0 is a worthy upgrade with some great new features, not the least of which is the ability to finally incorporate your own samples in seamless loops with. Spectrasonics in general makes some of the most useful synths I work with and Omnisphere is the best of the best. I’m not aware of how this works for those people who’ve purchased the new (boxed) version of Omnisphere 2 – I’m only dealing with the upgrade. The upgrade is just that, it’s an “upgrade” to version 2 and not a complete or full install.
