I tried the link again to see & it only allows one.

No Omni 2 yet? The Spectrasonics web site has April 30th as the release date. Just wondering what's going on with the update. Thanks

The Spectrasonics site is now indicating they will be offline (tech shop) to increase bandwidth. Says to check back next week. : /

Next week? Ouch - that's not great....at all!
 
I guess I am lucky I got my update just before the website got into meltdown..
 
I am now playing around with sample import and granular synthesis. It got me busy for hours already. And that's only one of the two channels. Next step - an sample in the second (B) channel and see what combinations are possible. And I have not even tried the new interpolation possibilities (not sure if this is possible with imported sounds, simply because I have not gotten so far yet).
 
One thing is for sure - expect an LOT of 3th party expansions for Omnisphere 2, because it is really easy to make impressive (and usable) sounds...
 
That all said - I really feel for those guy's that have to wait. It must be horrible!

Thanks for the info. I just received an email from tech support. Ouch is right. Yes. It is quite painful to have to wait another week.

Yeah, nobody could have predicted the levees would break either!

In as much as it pains me to have to wait until next week I'm glad Spectrasonics is having such a successful go of it. I'm not surprised in the least. Omnisphere is truly an amazing and most powerful tool. I'm lovin' it!

Eric posted this on his FB page:

"WOW!

What a crazy couple of days it's been with the launch of Omnisphere 2.
Thanks so much for your support and encouragement!
Very happy to report that we can now help anyone who wants to upgrade.
Just contact us directly via email instead of going through the site:
techshop@spectrasonics.net

All the best,

EP"

I'm hearing that they've addressed a common criticism, which is that Omnisphere isn't geared toward EDM. Many teenage preset-punchers will rejoice, but this is not particularly great news to me. Please tell me the new sources aren't all pumping supersaws!
