Omnisphere/Softsynth & Oasys

[peter m. mahr]

Phew - it's getting more and more difficult to resist buying Omnisphere ...

I am afraid there is no way around it

[Cue mysterious, mystical voice dripping with reverberation as the curtain opens on Charlie, gazing dreamily into a pulsating blue glow]

"Look into the orb, Charlie. Deep, deeper, into the - umm - orbiting - uh - orb. That's right, Charlie, relax, loosen up those purse strings. Resistance is futile. You know that now, Charlie, don't you? You've always known that, Charlie..."

[Suddenly alarm rings, and Charlie startles to a bolt upright position, now wide awake beside the missus. He smiles at his lovely mate and tries to say good morning but out comes...]

"Omnisphere".

"Come again, luv?"

"Omnisphere".

"I don't know what you're on about, luv, but you'd best get a move on - you'll be late for work!"

"Omnisphere! Omnisphere omnisphere omnisphere!"

"Really, charliekins, I do wonder about you sometimes."

"Omnisphere."

"Sigh. At least it's not 'oasys' anymore"

[In the background - barely audible - we hear the Greek Chorus begin to chime: krrrrr krrrrrk krrrrk krrrrooooooonnnnnnnnooooossssss]

"I'm going home to mother, Charles!"

"Omnisphere."

[Charlie]

Now I start to understand what others meant by 'poetic' ...

BTT: I believe there are great soft-synths out there offering incredible high value compared to the price. Omnisphere is one of those. But as I'm far from utilizing my Oasys to its potential I try to keep my setup as focused as possible.

does anybody has experience with the muse receptor?

Thanks

Just downloaded the Omnisphere 1.5 update and the companion iPad app.

Brilliant!

The Orb in the Omnisphere iPad app is wicked!

Yamaha's Motif XF also has a few companion iPad apps. I wonder if Kronos will have as well - that'd be cool
