Plug-InGuru

Omniverse
For Spectrasonics
Omnisphere


Thank you for purchasing the PlugInGuru Omniverse patch library for
Spectrasonics Omnisphere!! I appreciate your business and support very much. I have
been slowly working on this library over the last 12 and I am really thrilled at how nice it
has turned out! This library is named Omniverse because of the wide variety of
patches that are represented Dance, EDM, Film, Pop, Hip Hop, Blues and even some
more experimental patches. PLUS, giving this library a more genaric name like
Omniverse Power Pack didnt go over very well with our my marketing team!
Even with the thousands of patches that have been created, it is still VERY easy to make
sounds youve never heard come from Omnisphere before. It was not easy and I had to
take a long time to finish this one (the mountain of KORG work this year has been pretty
non-stop which is also part of the reason for the delay). Anyway, the wait is over!! Below
are installation details and a listing of all the presets so read on!

The Omniverse library Contains:


150 Patch Presets:
Huge Range of patches Mod Wheel is tricked out on EVERY PATCH to do things
COOL and useful. So make sure you use a KEYBOARD with a Modulation Wheel!
50 Envelope Presets:
These are mostly Rhythmic but there is also a few really useful starting presets (More on
these later in this document). The COOL thing to realize about Envelope Templates are
that these can be assigned to ANY PATCH to make it rhythmic get to my video page to
see the tutorial on Tricking Out with Envelope Presets.
40 Arppegiator Presets:
Another way that has its own unique qualities as well as limitations when compared to
Envelope templates. That is why I decided to include both with this library.
:: VIDEO TUTORIALS ::
For Omnisphere, I decided to NOT include a video tutorial with the patch library.
Why?? Because there are literally HOURS and HOURS of top quality video tutorials
already made BY SPECTRASONICS at the Spectrasonics.net website There is no
reason to spend money on video tutorials for Omnisphere with they did such a great job
already!! Just go here to start learning these videos are now open to the public so
ANYBODY can watch them.
URL to 18 Spectrasonics Omnisphere/Trilian Videos:
http://www.spectrasonics.net/video/videos.php?InstrumentID=1&VideoTypeID=3
Of course, I will be creating some video tutorials that go over more advanced
parts of PROGRAMMING Omnisphere in a more real world application - you will be
able to find at either my web site (http://pluginguru.com/guru-videos/quik-e-videos) or at
the PlugInGuru YouTube channel (http://www.youtube.com/thepluginguru). As I am
writing this, there are no videos created yet so be patient it might take a week or three
to create them but they will be available online by the end of the year.

Installation
Installation is pretty straightforward for PC or Mac. There are 3 folders that need to
be placed in the correct folders inside the STEAM folder:

Contains the 150 patches and goes in the


Steam/Omnisphere/Settings Library/Patches folder.

Contains the 50 Envelope Presets and goes in the


Steam/Omnisphere/Settings Library/Presets/Envelope folder.

Contains the 40 Arpeggiator Presets and goes in the


Steam/Omnisphere/Settings Library/Presets/Arpeggiator folder.



LOCATING THE STEAM FOLDER: When you installed Omnisphere, you might have
had the 45Gig Soundsource library placed on an external hard drive. That doesnt
really matter youll find either the STEAM FOLDER or an ALIAS to your STEAM
folder at this location: Macintosh HD/Library/Application Support/Spectrasonics


As you can see above, there is a Spectrasonics Folder at this location that
contains the STEAM folder double-click that to open the STEAM folder.
Now on this computer, I placed the STEAM folder on a different hard drive, so
there is an ALIAS folder in the Library/Application Support/Spectrasonics folder.
Just double-click the actual folder or the Alias to open the STEAM folder.

If you are on a PC I currently dont know where the STEAM folder is placed,
but search your Hard Drives to locate this folder. Once youve found this folder,
the installation is identical.

Where does everything show up in


Omnisphere?
First click the database
Refresh Semi-Circle
Button... This ensures the
patches are found by the
database. The library
might now show up in the
directory if you dont.

Patches show up by 1st


selecting PlugInGuru
Omniverse from the
DIRECTORY box. Click the
text Directory on the Left of
the Patch Browser and select
PlugInGuru Omniverse and
all 150 patches now show up.

Arpeggiator Presets show up on


the Arpeggiator page when you
click the small Triangle that
pops up the list of available Arp
Patterns. Search for the Guru
Omniverse Arps Folder.

Envelope Presets show up on


any of the Envelope pages
Click the small Triangle (next to
the Magnifying glass) to open
the Preset List. Youll see Guru
Omniverse Env in the list and
there are the 50 presets!

CONTROLLER ASSIGNMENT INFORMATION


Omnisphere is a pretty simple virtual instrument in regards to Real-time control. There are
no real-time knobs or sliders like Absynth or Massive. I still assigned the Modulation Wheel
(CC001) to do something (in most cases pretty radical) to every Patch. REMEMBER: Some
patches are only a patch until you include using the Modulation Wheel while play them!!

Omnisphere works in a similar way to Stylus RMX in regards to assigning parameters for
automating in your DAW. Since there are literally thousands of possible assignments, you
need to Tell your DAW that you want to automate a certain slider by control+clicking on
that slider and selecting Enable Host Automation. There is a video at Spectrasonics.net
dedicated to this very important part of Omnisphere so make sure you watch it!

Final From comments from John Skippy Lehmkuhl:


One of the benefits to me for making these libraries is of course, that I get a lot
more intimately connected to these synthesizers and learn unique things things that only
come about after hours and hours of working with them. For Omnisphere, the releationship
has been a really amazing one. My respect for the sound quality of both the engine and
the sample library can not be emphasized enough there are very few if any virtual or
hardware synthesizers that have the depth of sound quality and universe of sounds to
select inside of it.
There is a musical personality to Omnisphere that keeps asking me to make more music
with its sounds! That call has gotten even stronger the last few months as Ive written
music using my own sounds.
Thank you Spectrasonics for setting the bar very very high for all other musical instrument
manufacturers to aim at. Omnisphere is a very fitting name for this instrument and Im
happy to have learned lots of secrets that I can now share with my customers in future
videos and in the sounds in this library!
AND Thank you to ALL OF YOU for your support. By purchasing this library you are
ensuring that I will keep making more libraries like this and then sharing my knowledge
with you. BORG of the world, Unite!

Kind Regards,
John Skippy Lehmkuhl
