Omnisphere guitar bank4/11/2024 The strings sound section contains acoustic type strings, luscious synth strings, old style strings, plucked strings and guitar sounds. These pads will give you instant inspiration. We can describe these sounds as epic, omnious, mysterious, magical and weird in some cases. The pads are very lush and thanks to the Orb, which is turned on in some of the patches, gives them a lot of evolving motions, which is great for soundtracks, new age and ambient types of music. The arpeggio patches are making use of controller messages like modwheel and aftertouch extensively. Most of the arpeggio patches use three or four layers in comparison to Omnisphere's 2 two layers With the help of the envelopes, filters and velocity capabilities of Omnisphere, these patches are perfect for craeting rhythmic tracks. The arpeggio sounds will give you instant inspiration. The ambient sounds are making extesive use of Omnisphere's orb and the many lfo and modulation capabilities, which gives these patches an omnious and scary character perfect to be used for sci-fi, thriller and horror movies. The ambient sounds are very atmospherical, great for filmscoring and ambient oriented music. All the patches were meticulously crafted using the internal sound sources from Omnisphere. This soundbank is also highly inspired by artists like Jean Michel Jarre, Tangerine Dream, Vangelis and others. Nearly all the patches can be modulated via velocity, modwheel and aftertouch which makes these patches very expressive. Realm of Omnisphere II is a very versatile soundbank which is aimed at ambient, new age, Berlin school, epic, cinematic soundtrack and filmscoring music. This bank is the follow up of the popular Realm of Omnisphere soundbank. But having 2 really good orchestral libraries, Omnisphere 2 and two good percussion/drum libraries and suddenly it becomes much easier.Realm of Omnisphere II is a soundbank for Omnisphere 2.5. Bit more difficult with just 2 orchestral libraries, but it could be done. If it came down to having just 2 libraries to work with, it would Omnisphere and a drum library. Biggest usage for me is a solo piano track and a track almost entirely done with Omnisphere 1. I have mostly (few in number) tracks out there that are orchestral in nature. So, like you, I tend to lean towards the sounds of orchestral instruments via sample libraries nowadays.and play them on a keyboard.īut my people are pushing me to get Omni 2 because the music thats going to be required in the near future at least (things change all the time of course) is going need to be of a more hybrid nature. Transcribing sounds from a keyboard to orchestra is fraught with strange happenings. This is why a lot of the time today, orchestral works can sound like they were written on a home organ or using a bank of synths. Violins make a noise like a violin and are generally played with a bow and synths occasionally try to emulate a vague sound like violins and are generally played on keyboard. Apologies to everyone in advance for having to break this news flash. A synth is just an engine, either digital or analogue generally, that creates sounds. Why? Because 99.99% of the time synths are played via a keyboard and you can either play a keyboard or you cannot. It depends what you're writing and why you're writing it.īTW there's not really any such thing as a Synth player (I know you said synths only, don't panic). A lifetime of fun from one library is availble. I have been playing with it for years now and I have not yet even scratched the surface or possible inspirations for me. Yes, no cross fades, no key switches for different articulations, but to play a synth, with one cool sound is inspirational. Just to play the thousands of sounds built in requires no learning curve. It inspires and always delivers more than promised. I love it all and use it all, but really, if I was forced to only have one library, it would be Omnisphere. Plus with all of the Plugin Guru's (John "Skippy" Lehmkuhl) how to videos, it is easy to make your own sounds with a fast learning curve. In spite of the thousands and thousands of sounds and possibilities, I still buy more soundsets from my favorite synth programmers. If I want a cool fat synth sound, it is there. I don't have the control like I do with a 200 GB sampled library of just one section, but it is nice to just sit there and play with a sound that needs no tweaking. I love Omnisphere strings, and harps, and vocals etc, etc, etc.!!. I like Omnisphere because it has both worlds that I am in love with. Give me sweet natural strings, woodwinds and brass and I am in love. Also, I grew up in the orchestra playing oboe. Give me an old fashioned Oberheim synth sound with those sweet filters and I am in love (that is why I love U-he Diva and such).
