In conclusion, these are all very powerful features that makes sure that Omnisphere 2 still sits on the throne as one of the most powerful vst plugins on the market. While capturing an arpeggio you can even change the key and it will be burnt to the midi capture. Each step can have it’s own unique pitch-glide, pitch transpose, step divider, Chord Voicing and Chord Inversion.Ī wonderful new feature is to capture an arpeggiated sequence and export it to your DAW as a raw midi file with all the pitch-glides and step dividers included. There is a new box above each step which on a right-click brings up a menu with tons of new on-step features. This new iteration of the arp has some new features more commonly found in step sequencers.
OMNISPHERE 2.6 UPDATE
One of the major upgrades to me with this new update of Omnisphere 2.6 is really the arpeggiator. It’s a mind blowing feature which basically gives you access to all those retro synths at your fingertips without the hassle of fiddling with ageing gear. While the retro hard ware synths never could keep pitch, Omnisphere now gives you total control of keeping these sounds in check.
These oscillators are sampled replicas as heard in the original hardware synths. We can easily access the wavetables and profiles from these synths just by selecting a hardware synth from the dropdown at the top of Omnisphere.Īmong the new harware profiles we find Roland Juno-106, Roland D-50, Super Jupiter and the Alesis Andromeda.įirstly, in the Omnisphere 2.6 first look video, I fired up some of the hardware profiles which instantly loads up the parts (1-4) with predefined oscillators. It doesn’t matter if we own these hardware synths. Let’s dive in and look at the new features. We have a totally re-iterated arpeggiator and over 600 new presets! And boy is this update exciting.
OMNISPHERE 2.6 FULL
Omnisphere now includes Hardware Synth Integration feature with full support for over 65 Hardware Synths! The update is free for all owners of Omnisphere 2. The first thing that strikes me after opening Omnisphere 2.6 is all the new integrated hardware profiles.
