Omnisphere is indeed overrated. Half of the patches in it are unusable in anything other than experimental or film scoring. The hardware patches are ok, but I can find better ones from Arturia. And the others (which are very few) is somewhat good. I tried Omnisphere and didn't see the need to get it.

I think people like omnisphere due to the size of the library not the quality of individual presets. It's easier and less expensive to manage a single plugin like omnisphere vs. having 100 kontakt libraries. However, if there is a bigger/better sample based library vsti I'd love to know.

Everyone sleeps on the fact that Omnisphere is absurdly powerful for sound design. The amount of modulation, the number of different filters, and the customization of those filters (configurable in series or in parallel), the frequency modulation/ring/granular sections, and added to that the sound quality of each individual oscillator. Not only that, you can stack up to 8 different patches into one instance. Mix that in with the fact that you can use samples for synthesis as well, AND hardware integration if you have analog modern synths. For a professional music producer interested in sound design it's a ridiculously great value. That said, if you only care about presets then sure I can see how it's overrated.

Why is Omnisphere 620usd? And Spectrasonics has never had a sale and never will. Not a good company. Just hyped up by the hip hop community, Keyspace sounds horrible compared to the 3 Kontakt Piano's actually that sound real. More people should be calling out Spectrasonics for not having sales. Trillian, Keyscape and Omnisphere have never gone on sale even once yet. And they are becoming outdated now. I wouldn't use them personally and will never purchase them.

Reverb on low end is like 90% of techno.
Omnisphere is definitely overrated in general especially for ppl who just like presets which was me for the longest time. I didn’t realize its full potential until i started to actually understand how to better tailor my sound… i should probably go spend more time in there tbh since im still growing in being able to design the sounds i want from scratch.

Reverb on low end is also tricky because it can ruin your mono compatibility. If I want low low low reverb I usually take just the left or right channel from the reverb plugin (not summing both sides to mono, but only using one side)
You can use side chain to help emphasize grooves it’s not only a mixing technique and in my opinion I like compression side chain more than LFO side chains created from an automation club manipulating a volume knob compression side chain is easier to get bounce out of faster

I found your channel after watching a video on some granular fx plug-ins and it’s a blessing that someone is willing to step up and critique some of these companies that are selling snake oil
Omnisphere is actually pretty stellar. For one thing, there is a kind of integration that is possible with other Spectrasonics programs that is fairly amazing. The way this can connect with Keyscape and Trilian, plus the "Sonic Extensions"... is an amazing amount of power. It's not inexpensive stuff, but it is packed with versatility that's quite deep. All that being said, it is not for everyone. Those who can afford Omnisphere and all the Spectrasonics products that integrate with it ... and also own other synths and VSTi's, likely understand exactly how/why Omnisphere will serve them best. Really, there is nothing else like it out there.
What romplers are better than omnisphere (for synths) ?
Music Theory is necessary. As one famous composer said you learn the rules so that you can understand how to break them, but first you need to learn them first.

People definitely do cut too many lows out though. This makes the track sound smaller if you could use that adjective. Cutting lows with more precision / consideration to maintain more weight to each element, with levelling and some frequency side chaining (fast attack / release) is where it's at.
these are the greatest hot takes of all time
I found more use in ANALOG LAB V + the loads of banks that you can find. I recommend it to anyone especially now that its on sale for $99. Its basically the best of arturias V collection which imo has more usable sounds than omni.

You gotta do it all differently if you have different synths bc some synths react strange to certain types of compression. Kalimbas and romplers are touchy w multiband compression. Those are best w standard sidechaining

Phase shift on the master mix buss wont cause any issues because it shifts the phase equally for each component of the audio. So it can't cause any phase cancellation. Phase issues arise when phase shifts happen on a per-track basis, this can cause cancelling between the tracks. Like you might have a bass and kick drum that are sitting together really tight. And applying EQ(or whatever) to one track may create some phase cancellation that wasnt there before. Which can fuck up your low end. (thats just the most obvious example)

Gain sidechain is only viable for simple kick patterns like four on the floor. If you're making trap or something it's not gonna work well for you. Much better to use automation if you have something more complex.
What synths would you rate as better than Omnisphere with more above average sounds?

....pitching Kicks pretty much changes it. Sometimes, randomly pitching kicks gets you something you like, but alot of times if you need to repitch the kick in the "mix" its trouble
naw for 4/4 type beats or anything danceable you want to have the kick tuned to the bass or keey of the track because thats the majority of the beat aand the most prominent element outside of the baseline itself but the kick also has low end in it so if its a constant kick and its out of tune the beat will always sound "off"
"The norm if understanding music theory" is something that was more prevalent until the 1990's. I think the "norm" nowadays is that most people making music at home probably don't know a whole lot about theory...

I'm a Omni user for > 10 years... it has a great UI and amazing layering features. If you are into sound design, it is def. a great synth. I find it as easy to design sounds from scratch as with Serum, but you get 100 more features. The patches are very well usable for scoring, film, chillout, ambient out of the box. But you get GB of highest quality samples in there to build sounds from samples. Thats a pretty cool and handy thing. The FX in Omni is amazing too, compared to other Synth fx algos... well, so, if I want some standard stuff, I go for Serum or Spire or Sylenth1, but if I need something unique, original, with great depth that cuts thru, I design with Omni and it nevef disappoints. Also, I got a huge Update for free Omni 2 to Omni 2.5. Its a very fair business model. Omni is also good for stage use as you can overlay layers for a piano per range/section etc.

on the whole low cutting thing, the power, weight and body of the sound lies in the lows. even if you can barely hear the impact the low cut is having, it's a cumulative reduction of weight. some genres want a clean sound, but don't high pass your distorted electric guitars, for instance. my rule of thumb, is high pass when things are muddy, and only until the muddiness is gone
When I first tried Omnisphere I got three tracks from the first ten presets. Every time I go back it's the same. Such inspiration! But if you are doing genre based music I guess if the software doesn't match your chosen genre then it's of limited use. You'd be better going for something called [my genre]Pro.
Yeah I have no idea what genre's my music fall into. I just create what sounds great. Of all the plugins I've tried, VPS Avenger has the best presets hands down. Probably because you can create an entire mix with 1 plugin. People who don't use clippers probably only do it missionary style.

Regarding clipping "and understanding compression" Is the song good? If so, no one gives a ƒµçk Side note, if you're attempting some specific kind of sound via some specific workflow then yes there can be a right and wrong way to do it. I'm just saying if we're talking about clipping vs a limiter - and you like one or the other - there is no wrong or right
What does this video have to do with omnisphere?
Don't worry about music theory. Just go by feel. It's better. Especially when spending all day on a note to sound good when working on your guitar solo.
If you pitch drums to match melodic instruments, you will have to do even more to keep them distinct from each other.
Another comment: the best DAW is the DAW that works best for you. So it might be Ableton or it might be FL Studio or it might be something entirely different. People need to stop being tribal about everything and anything.
People who like to get striaght to making music vs those who like to create their sounds or tailor, will have different opinions about Omnisphere and other vst/pluggins that are geared more to sound creation/design. It depends on the person. I have Omnisphere but I rarely use it..I actually wish i got Electra2 instead.

Massive haters just hating until the masses find this. haha.
Omnisphere is impressive in many ways but I stopped using it since the presets often take up to much space in the mix and it often gave me a headache when trying to get it sound good together with everything else. On its own it sounds awesome. Yeah go on and blame my mixing skills. I'm too old to care.😅
I mean yeah I FL and Ableton do the exact same thing but both dolls have their advantages when it comes to a workflow of a certain genre I would say Ableton is better for Dub Step base house in any music that you will be making a lot of automation clips with due to the fact that when you create the automation clips it’s already in the playlist underneath the Sound of the pattern you’re trying to manipulate like for example FL studio is extremely annoying creating automation clips like literally I was getting kind of annoyed using it while making a base house track I’m doing because when you create a lot of automation clips it really helps a lot to stay organized but whenever I create my automation clips and I go to look for the automation clips in the playlist it’s Dr. off somewhere inside one of my truck group list and I normally Colabs those track group list so then I have to open up all my playlist groups define automation clip just a place it by the pattern or audio clip I am trying to automate it takes up time I want to take some time it takes up work it’s just annoying to happen to hunt them down and I would say FL studio is laid out better for quickly making a rap beat because you’re hot keys are more playlist pattern friendly And a couple other reasons I could list but this is already a long comment
If you’re kick is “proper,” and a relatively “normal” pitch, the transient should be short enough that tuning is bordering irrelevant. There are instances, but in the majority of musical scenarios, it isn’t going to matter all that much. If you’re in the same key relative interval, you can move on. You should be more concerned with the decay time of your kick’s sub-frequencies. If the transient is too short to push your side chains, you can always copy a pattern and create a dummy chain to control sidechain event timings. Edit to say, ProQ protected my family from an oncoming attack of locust and saved the Fall harvest.
I hate it personally, but the pads are all over tv and theres a lot of tv presets. There's a show that rhymes with PAW AND BORDER whose guy unabashedly uses omni presets constantly. It sounds decent. The doink doink is an m-1 or d-50 preset with the key tapped twice (I forget which I used to have both of them and I get them confused) though. Contra whatever BS he claims this week.

OTT Genasis
Regarding the first comment clippers and limiter aren’t the same thing limiters have a ratio of 20-50(which is why when you limit something sometimes the output will temp go over the thresh you set). Clippers have a ratio of INFINITY:1(which mean the output will never go over the thresh you set). Also compression(assuming your ratio is 10 or less) can’t reduce atk they ONLY shape it by that I mean if you have a TP of 0 and comp with the fastest atk/rel your TP will still be 0 assuming you level match no matter what thresh you set. ONLY clippers and limiters can actually reduce your TP so the first comment is just straight up wrong. The reason why pretty much all master Eng use clipper is to reduce unneeded transient material while still maintaining the same rms limiters can do the same also but they WILL ALWAYS let some transient material through due to the small ratio amount.
So here is my take on the Omnisphere thing, I can understand for the producers who are no genuinely into full out sound design and just really use presets and i think that is perfectly fine as well. But if you enjoy the aspects of sound design Omnisphere is a power house especially for people who do more Movie and TV etc etc, So while i get beat making caused the presets to be a bit overrated i for sure recommend you put a day or 2 a side every week or so and dabble with using your own samples even it can get crazy pretty fast man. So yeah i don't think it's truly overrated i think it's just the preset's that give it a bad name these days even though they sound great just very over used in modern beat making. as far as the Nexus 2 comparison LOL yeah nah not even close.
You got nice amount of views these days

Omnisphere is black and white. Either it has these incredible sounds that sound as good as hardware, but there are so many 'filler' presets which are just useless. I've spent days going through thousands of presets and favouriting only 75, with only 30 with a 5 star rating. Also, some packs are just terrible, total rip off. But I'd say Keyscape is pretty much on par as one of the best piano and Rhodes plugins on the market. The only issue is very high CPU usage with some patches. One great bass patch will have barely any CPU, then I found this amazing soaring lead patch, but It's so multilayered (Clearly a lot of effort was put in), if I play 4 notes it uses 30% of my i9 MBP in Ableton. Even one note will end a session. Thank God that Ableton 11 can multithread Omnisphere, it can't do a lot of other big name plugins, so my Mac Studio is great. Finally, the main issue with Omnisphere is the price. At least upgrades are free and really good. If you get it plus Keyscape and some great sound packs you're looking at $800.

Spectrasonics has never had a sale... ever! that says a lot about a company. All their software is outdated now. There are a lot of piano's I would rather have than Keyscape.

a lot of the samples in Omnisphere are from Spectrasonics sample cds from the 90s...not sure if that's a good or a bad thing but I think that proves your point. 😂

@@trevor_mounts_music LOL omg figures. Meanwhile I have a library made in George Lucas skywalker studios by real horn players when it was on sale 50 percent off for less than 300$ , actual professional samples. Spectrasonics is crap
