New Hardware Library adds over 1,000 new patches for all users:.

Here’s Spectrasonics’ head Eric Persing introducing the update at a recent special event in LA: The free upgrade also features a newly announced high-resolution interface, support for Windows Multi-touch, new Granular Synthesis capabilities and a new sound library of over 1000 new sounds, bringing the total number of included sounds to over 14,000. “Our virtual instrument users can now experience the joy of the hardware synth workflow,” he adds, “and hardware synth users can now fully expand their capabilities into the vast sonic world of Omnisphere!”

“We are very excited to be able to finally eliminate that problem by utilizing the world’s finest hardware synthesizers to fully control Omnisphere.” “The biggest limitation of software synthesizers has been the lack of physical interaction,” notes Spectrasonics President Eric Persing. Omnisphere 2.5 introduces Hardware Synth Integration, which transforms over 30 well-known hardware synthesizers into hands-on controllers that are deeply integrated with Omnisphere’s newly expanded synthesis capabilities.

Spectrasonics has released Omnisphere 2.5 – a major update to its flagship software synthesizer.
