Omnisphere and Symphony of voices comparision

[Uli Reuter]

Hi there

is there some official comparision chart of the content of Symphony of Voices and the corresponding content in Omnisphere?
I own them both and would like to know where I have to look for certain stuff... My impression is that very much of it is included in Omni - but not everythng, right? (Same thing for Hans Zimmer Guitars 1 and 2, BTW)

Thanks

Uli

My friend owns Vocal Planet and says that most of the content is not in Omni.I think Spectrasonics chose the voices that would make sense in a synth vs. say a phrase so it may be similar to SOV.. Playable vs. Phrases that are not which does make total sense.Somehow I think it's related to SOV.They do sound great though,hope this helps..;)

They do sound great though

Absolutely;)
Actually I'm just curious, as I have now the same library twice on my computer, to know where are the differences. But if there's no chart, nevermind...

I agree with your request,it seems like a good one.

Spectrasonics can we get an official list of what previous products are in Omni vs. what previous libraries are not in Omni or a compare list from the previous Spectrasonics libraries?

Do you think they will ever make it inside Omni btw?

Hi..Go here.. http://www.northernsounds.com/forum/showthread.php?t=63511 ..There is a link to all the patches and soundsources..Don't know if that will help..But an amazing look into what is there.. JON

Basically all of the playable multisamples, ambiences and FX from SOV, VP, HZ1+2, DR1+2, and Bizarre Guitar are included...and some previously unreleased material from those libraries as well. With a couple of exceptions, the phrase material is not included, since that material makes more sense to use in a sampler. A library like VP is primarily phrases and a library like SOV is primarily multisamples.

Only the Heart of Africa vol.2 SFX are currently included. The rest of Heart of Africa and Heart of Asia is not included at this point.

More of the sample libraries may be making its way into the Omnisphere core library, but there's no timetable or announcement about that right now.
