Hi Bryan.

Synth sounds yes and some traditional sound like mallets, citar etc.

But over and above that, it is very much a mood type synth.

Cheers

Subject: [ddots-l] Omnisphere sounds


All of you people using Omnisphere, what is your opinion of the sound quality in terms of bread and butter sounds? All of the demos that I've found are full of amazingly pulsing, throbbing, morphing, arpeggiating, swirling textures and synth tambers. That sounds great for creating atmospherics, or for scoring television action shows. However, how well does Omnisphere serve as a general purpose go-to instrument? For example, I have lots of plugs if I want drums, pianos, electric pianos, guitars, and synths. However, when the odd situation comes up, and I need a sax, a ukulele, a harpsichord, or a sitar, I need a general purpose synth to go to. I've used various things for that over the years, but I'm now in a spot where the old stuff like Hypersonic isn't available anymore on Win 7, and I'm trying not to use hardware synths anymore, so can't just track in something from one of those.

So, how do you rate it for general purpose sounds?

Bryan
