How large is the Omnisphere STEAM folder? 56GB. How many presets does Omnisphere have? I can't remember because it keeps increasing, 4,000? 6,000? How much more powerful is the synth in Omnisphere than in Syntronik 2? By the way, I don't think Omnisphere should be using samples of synths either - there are 300MB pad presets, why aren't they made using the built in synth? Because its built in synth obviously isn't capable of doing it, otherwise why waste time sampling a real synthesizer and putting a 300MB sample into Omnisphere?flori89 wrote: ↑Wed Dec 01, 2021 3:33 pm Should I call you the apples & oranges master? Again, that this should be modeled instead of sampled is your opinion. You can have that opinion but saying "5000 presets for 200GB isn't enough because in my opinion they should model synths instead of sampling them" is a textbook example of a strawman argument.
That you have the opinion that sampled libraries aren't cutting it, isn't an objective truth. It's your opinion and an opinion in this can't be refuted, since what sounds better is completely subjective. Plenty of people prefer sampled libraries to modeled ones because to them only samples can get the full analog sound.
Spectrasonics is creating a synth made from samples. You might have heard of it before. Remind me, how well are they doing?
We don't know how well Spectrasonics are doing, Omnisphere isn't a synth made from samples (whatever that means), it has a large sample library but also allows relatively powerful synthesis. IKM are doing 'well' too, presumably, because a lot of people don't get to hear opposing points of view about them... LOL.
