Setting up Omnisphere in Synfire v2

Posted

I am a Synfire newbie, so please be patient with me.

I use Omnisphere as soundsource for almost all my sounds (say Rhodes, Clavinet, Bass).

I fail to set up 3 seperate Omnisphere Sounds inside Synfire, whenever I choose for next Omnisphere instance I overwrite the patch I have previous setup.

I guess its very easy to do, any help?

ps I do not want to go via AICport-DAW at this stage.

Do these things:

Open "Sounds" and make sure you have two racks and therefore two engines (e.g. Engine1:04 and Engine1:05), and by clicking each one of the blue buttons with the Omnisphere name on it you get two different Omnispheres VSTs, where in one you will load preset A and in the other one preset B. You should be able to actually have both instances of the VST at the same time, visually, in two different windows. If you get to this point, than the setup is correct and it's just a matter of correctly selecting the instrument:

In Structure, create a new instrument.
Choose "New channel or rack module" and select the desired device.
You probably choose "Brose available sounds" or something like that and you happened to select the same instrument twice.

You can also just drop Omnisphere from the Rack Module Library (left sidebar) on a track (add new ones as you need) in your arrangement and follow the Wizard's suggested steps.
