List of Libraries in distribution:
Spectrasonics have announced an update to the popular Spectrasonics Omnisphere sampler and synthesizer. The updated version received expanded functionality of the “Sonic Extensions” soundpacks and a number of other additions.
Sonic Extensions are libraries of multisampled sounds. Each set has its own interface with unique settings and parameters. Outwardly, such a solution gives the impression of working with a stand-alone virtual instrument, and not an add-on to Omnisphere.
Sonic Extensions also got their own sets of effects and a “Scenes” function. The latter allows you to save variations of patches and presets that are already included with the add-on.
The add-ons offer rich sound palettes consisting of 1000 sounds, variations and presets.
Sonic Extensions will be an important step towards the release of Omnisphere 3, which is already in development, the company said. Spectrasonics do not name the exact date of the release of the third version of the synthesizer, but note that the release will take place no earlier than in a few years.
There are currently four sound extensions:
Nylon Sky

New Effects
Also, each of the Sonic Extension includes two new exclusive effects that have been specially designed for each Sonic Extension.
Custom Created Custom Controls
Spectrasonics’ software development team worked closely with each sound engineer to enable them to create new custom custom controls for Omnisphere.
Each Sonic Extension patch comes with a set of customizable controls that have been specially designed and tuned to deliver a wide range of powerful and musical results.
Scenes
Another new feature introduced in Sonic Extensions, “Scenes” stores snapshots of Custom Control settings and gives new sound variations for each patch.
The user can change scenes as well as select them using the QWERTY left / right arrow keys or using the MIDI Learn function for new ways of transforming sound while playing.
Special New Features for Omnisphere
Since Sonic Extensions are created by Spectrasonics, they may offer newly developed special features for Omnisphere that have never been available before. One example of this is the new Strum function in the arpeggiator and the unique new Humanity and Life controls that bring human imperfections to the timing and dynamics of the Arp pattern.
These innovative new functions in the arpeggiator were designed to create extremely realistic and human strumming patterns using Nylon Sky, but can also be applied to all kinds of patches in Omnisphere.
File 20180906_120200.iso – RePack by Implode Sch and was taken from this distribution
Installer Omnisphere_Update_2_8_1c.exe built and cured vkDanilov
Sonic Extensions cured Team FLARE
All operations on behalf of the administrator! Cyrillic content in the folder path is unacceptable!
- Unpack the 20180906_120200.iso file to a location convenient for you (~ 83GB). As a result, you should have a Spectrasonics folder with this content.
- Go to the path C: \ ProgramData (the ProgramData folder is hidden by default in Windows. To display it, you must check the “Hidden items” checkbox)
(or just enter% ProgramData% in the address bar of the folder)
Create the Spectrasonics folder in the ProgramData folder. In this folder (Spectrasonics) create a shortcut to the STEAM folder (you need to select the path where you saved the main Spectrasonics folder (created from ISO) and select the STEAM folder in it).
For example:
If you unpacked 20180906_120200.iso to the root of drive “F” – F: \ Spectrasonics, then when creating a shortcut you must specify F: \ Spectrasonics \ STEAM - Install Omnisphere_Update_2_8_1c.exe
- Install * \ Bob Moog Tribute Patch Library Update 2.0.0c \ Windows \ Spectrasonics Updater.exe
(specify the * \ Spectrasonics folder in which you have libraries) - Start Omnisphere. When you start Omnisphere + library for the first time, there will be a black window and it may take 10+ minutes (depending on the hardware of the computer) while Omnisphere will scan and create the necessary files for work, incl. do nothing until a full-fledged window appears!
- After scanning and a full window appears, close Omnisphere and install the Sonic Extensions.
Extension name \ Windows \ *. Exe
Directions for installation is confusing. Can you spell it out a little clearer please.
Thank you!
Hi there!
The update works just fine.
Here is how ( follow the steps exactly!)
(Install Omnisphere 2, first. This is an update only; requires originally installed Omnisphere 2)
Updating to Omnisphere 2.8
(Following steps would not be required usually as with initial Omnisphere installation your computer already has a STEAM folder. THEY ARE BOUT CREATION OF A STEAM FOLDER, ONLY)
Unpack the 20180906_120200.iso file to a location convenient for you (~ 83GB). As a result, you should have a Spectrasonics folder with this content.
Go to the path C: \ ProgramData (the ProgramData folder is hidden by default in Windows. To display it, you must check the “Hidden items” checkbox)
(or just enter% ProgramData% in the address bar of the folder)
Create the Spectrasonics folder in the ProgramData folder. In this folder (Spectrasonics) create a shortcut to the STEAM folder (you need to RT CLICK and select Copy as Path… to select the path where you saved the main Spectrasonics folder (created from ISO) and select the STEAM folder in it). For example: If you unpacked 20180906_120200.iso to the root of drive “F” – F: \ Spectrasonics, then when creating a shortcut you must specify F: \ Spectrasonics \ STEAM
Now Install Omnisphere_Update_2_8_1c.exe
That’s it
Installing Moog Library
Follow the path: Bob Moog Tribute Patch Library – Update Data – Steam – Omnisphere – Settings Library – Patches – Factory – Moog Tribute Library Data Base File
Copy the Data Base File
Open your installed Steam folder – Omnisphere – Settings Library – Patches – Factory
Paste the NEW Moog Tribute Library Data Base File here
That’s it
Installing the Sonic Extensions
Create a ‘Sonic Extensions’ folder in the STEAM folder, where Omnisphere, Tilian etc are placed. (Be careful with all spellings)
To install an extension, for example Nylon Sky
Open downloaded Nylon Sky folder – Full – Steam – Sonic Extensions – Nylon Sky.
Copy this ‘Nylon Sky’ folder and paste it in the Sonic Extensions folder you just created.
Again open downloaded ‘Nylon Sky’ folder – FX – Steam – Sonic Extensions – Nylon Sky.
Copy this ‘Nylon Sky’ folder at any location – RENAME it as FX – cut it and paste INSIDE the Nylon Sky folder you have just pasted in your own created STEAM folder.
Your newly created Nylon Sky folder should now have 3 folders inside: Settings Library, Soundsources and FX.
That’s it.
REPEAT THE SAME PROCEDURE FOR ALL THE 4 EXTENSIONS!
Final adjustments
Start Omnisphere. A black screen appears and stays for a long time, as Omnisphere links up all resources.
Let it finish. DON’T DO ANYTHING. Take a cup of coffee instead.
That’s it!
Close Omnisphere
Re-Open Omnisphere.
Open Patch Browser main window
Almost at the end you should see the Sonic Extensions folder, with all 4 packs inside. That confirms successful installation
Now Open the Multi browser – run refresh (5th button )
for ALL Libraries.
Similarly refresh the Patch Browser, for all libraries
Go to Soundsource browser and REFRESH for all libraries
Now open any extension. Select an instrument. It should work fine
In case of any issues, run soundsource browser for that particular library.
Omnisphere, after a few instances of use will work perfactly fine.
ENJOY !
Omnisphere has started working and I think everything is loaded but there is no sound what to do?
When I go to install the .exe it spits out an error for STEAM folder files saying that they are read-only. I can’t edit permissions because I do not have access to the security tab under properties. I wasted an hour downloading this stupidness and can’t even use it.
uncheck the read only in properties of the dlls
thanks for this post , sucessfully installed omnisphere
only problem is the sonic extensions are given problems ‘
a message comes whenever i play the sonic extensions ” unauthorized sonice extensions detected thye are being disabled , however it does not change anything , the pathches are still played, thanks again
thanks man it does indeed
Extensions will not install, unless I’m just being a dumbass, which is possible.
x2
Man thanks for this for real It worked the first time I tried. Read the instructions hella carefully ya’ll
please tell us what you did… instructions are not helpful at all
Demande de mots de passe?
InstallationAtributes.dat is missing, so I can’t install the sonic extensions.
Doesn’t work guys.
yes sonic extensions working , everything is just working perfect loving it .
ok here is the thing for those who are unable to install sonic extensions just create a folder in steam name it as sonic extensions and copy all the data for all the 4 sonic extensions here.
how to copy the data pls. guide me. thank you
Looks like I’m having a weird issue:
when I launch the torrent file to my torrent client (via a seedbox), I get nothing, it won’t start (have launched it for 5 days now), and while looking at the trackers list, for one tracker (bt.t-ru.org/ann) it says “Torrent not registered” and the other (retracker.local/announce) gives me “Could not connect to tracker.”
It does that for all the Spectrasonics torrents…
Any idea why it does that? Or maybe another tracker I could add that works?
Could someone help me with these instructions?
I didn’t understand the shortcut to STEAM folder part.
I have enough space on my SD, so I create the Spectrasonics folder in C: \ ProgramData and copied all the STEAM folder form ISO to the Spectrasonics folder. I installed Omnisphere_Update_2_8_1c.exe, but when I try to install Spectrasonics Updater.exe, I receive a message saying that the path C: \ ProgramData doesn’g contain a STEAM folder, but it’s there
You need to select C: \ProgramData\Spectrasonics
I get insert Spectrasonics Omnisphere then click okay……. prompt when I’m at step 4
x2
maybe try mounting the .iso ??
There is no instructions on how to install. I’m having problems installing it. There is something wrong with the installer
I’m talking about the latest version since you used an installer not like before that there are instructions that we need to follow. I made it work but there is an error still I’m trying to figure it out.
It actually does work. Got it to work after the second try. Thanks
Bob Moog Tribute Patch Library Update 2.0.0c and Sonic Extensions cannot install showing message “insert spectrasonics omnisphere then click ok”
i have the same problem with omnisphere 2.8.1.c did you solve it?
Did someone fix this?
same problem with the moog extention.
Help PLEAse !
Finally got it to work but only the main program. Still can’t install any of the extensions
same here
Same here :/
same
I’m super confused with this.. I’ve got the vst to load but whenever i click a sound it either says “cant load wavetable” or “Sound bank, please reset browser”. Any ideas what to do?
edit: I’ve tried manually installing the soundbanks and wavetables again but still has the same errors. Also finding it odd that the whole filesize was only 5gb when omnisphere is meant to be 60gb at least. Any ideas whats going on?
insert spectrasonics omnisphere then click ok prompt
j’ai galeré mes sa fonctionne , petit coup de main pour ceux qui vont venir dans les commentaire
alors …
1 , jai cree le fameux dossier Spectrasonics
dans mon disque ( chez moi je n’est que le C ) donc disque C

donc tu aura le dossier Spectrasonics ( qui c’est decomprésser et ton dossier steam que tu a copie collé
ensuite tu instal Omnisphere_Update_2_8_1c.exe
le chemin daccé que tu va lui montré c’est le dossier Spectrasonics que ta crée dans ton disque au tous debut … tu celetionne juste ce dossier , tu rentre pas dedans

So where would I install base omnisphere 2? Just spent hours downloading this 100 gig monster, you’re telling me I have to do it again? breh
you don’t need omnisphere, it’s so many free plugins…people be tripping on this plugin i have it but dont really use it any more, I gave the boxed program away but still have it installed, so many better plugins im serious, this shit is a waste of time, you could be making hitz, with other plugins.
man those instructions are insane lol
im glad some people are saying its working but it just seems like the way its written is not organized, confusing and seems to leave out some things
worked…thanks
