When opening up the patch browser, does anyone know how to view just the NEW patches that are part of Omni 2? I see lots of Omni 1 patches (I can tell because I gave them star ratings), and definitely see some new names and categories, but would prefer to browse ONLY the new ones.

Thanks, if you know how to do this....

Select the Version category in the browser.

re: hardware, it is a double edged sword. Hardware sometimes run out of stock and I am sure if omnisphere was hardware it would cost over $3,000 US.........

Yep, sure I've checked the SPAM department.

And you're right with the HW statement. But pls allow me some sarcasm/irony...

you are overlooking the mob standing outside the store for the last 48 hours... with that in mind... the downloading is priceless...

Spectrasonics on the other hand knows how to dissect and stretch the process into pieces that take their time. A simple email confirming the payment, for example, must not reach you within an hour or so. It may not even reach you at all. Then it's up to you to get in contact to inform them about the new bucks on their bank account.

in a perfect world that would make sense... goes back to the line at the store... those same individuals are waiting for the server now...

How come they haven't thought of providing servers that can handle the demand. That's just unprofessional.

READ: you have to pick a destination folder! Once I did that it started working. Getting 340KBPs 18 hours... sigh... 18GB...

They said they did. This happens with every major release across the board from audio stuff to gaming to video streaming like HBO. This is nothing new and should have been expected by everyone.

just curious... how many download sales do you think Spectrasonic have made today... 1000, 2000, 3000? that is a ton of individuals hitting any server...

i want to pull the trigger today... but i am trying my best to wait until Sunday...

It would rather be worriesome (for Spectrasonics) if the server didnt get choked:

Nobody bought it?
