[ddots-l] Re: Omnysphere!!

Greg,

If you can someone sighted to copy the preset names in to the sonar preset box 
foryou and see if they will load that way, that would be helpful. I tried doing 
that with omnisphere and sonar 6, and the sounds don't load that way, which is 
odd, because any other synth i've used that approach with works fine.

  Well my computer is a little querky and sometimes I have to hit the space bar 
before any sound will come out, especially if a big sound loads up, so here's 
what I've found out so far.
  Using sonar 7 and cake talking,
  when I open sonar,
  do alt I and y, for insert soft synth, Find omnysphere in the list and open 
it, I'm placed in the window that tells me the program hasn't been scripted for 
and there are no presets available till I route my Jaws to PC, and go to the 
top of that window, with control home.
  Then I arrow down to, Saw square, and click on the left mouse button, Finally 
some stuff opens up that I can use, a mess of sounds, and they are good.\
  It's hard to see how it all works just yet, there's a line that says,
  Catigory, type author and tamber, and right below that, four alls in a row,
  all, all, all, all,
  I've been putting my jaws curser on the first all, and clicking on that to 
load more sounds, then I arrow down, and use the same key stroke to load one of 
those sounds,
  wait a bit and after it loads I can play it. I find that
  to get one of those sounds to play,  with out a lot of distortion, it's best 
if I close out of that window with control f4.
  Sometimes I have to turn down the volume on my audio track to and that cseems 
to help. I'm running two gigs of ram, and I suppose I need four for this big 
synth. Some of the sounds are 150 megs and up. 
  To get a new sound, I then have to go to the output colomn on the midi track, 
do control Y, to get back in to that preset or plug in window, Route the jaws 
to PC again, and arrow down to something that looks good, and do the left mouse 
on it. I find that there are so many sounds and some pages only load up two or 
three, my sighted friend, can click on something that opens another bunch of 
sounds down the list, but we can't get to it with the jaws curser. I'll bet HSC 
could fix that for us with Mister Phil's help. 
  Well anyway that's what I've learned so far. $450 is a mighty big price to 
pay for something with such limmited accessibility far as I'm concerned, but if 
HSC could help me get further with it, maybe I'll be glad of the purchase 
eventually. I do hope so. 
  My wife says we should talk to the A D A people about stuff like this, but I 
sure don't have the energy or patients for that. I suppose conversations with 
the developers would be a more positive way to go,
   sorta be nice and pleasantly prod them in to accessible accomadation.  
  Is anyone having a conversation with the spectrosonics people about this 
synth? I've left a phone message, but not sure how soon I'll hear back. I got 
the impression they wanted to deal mostly on line, but we'll see I guess. I'd 
just like for someone who knows more than I do about jaws and computers to chat 
with these folks. 
  If they call me back, and one of you would like to talk with them about how 
they could make there instrument more accessible for us, right me off list with 
your nnumber and I'll try to get you hooked up with them.
  Thanks folks for reading this long post. Think I'll go down there, and see 
what else I can find out about this bunch of fun sounds.
    my email is,

    Boy I installed all six dvd's, took for ever, scanned it with globle 
options VST scann, and I hear no sound after inserting it either through the 
track view, with the midi channel and banks, the way that stineberg works, and 
with the program browser
      the way dimension and rapture work. 

    Is anyone using this soft synth? Could I get some instruction?
