Congrats Hib! Omnisphere is one very, very fun synth to ... have fun with!

ps. i not guitarist and to me zebra sounds different when compared omnisphere there is not thing called perfect sounding synth for all uses.

I agree with all you say here. What I have tested and found to be true though is that U-He analog synthesis sounds smoother and less aliased. In particular, I have compared Omnisphere to ACE and Diva, and both ACE and Diva have very noticably smoother-sounding sync sweeps, whereas Omnisphere's sync sweeps have very noticable harsh aliasing. Some people prefer aliasing and there's nothing wrong with that, but the fact remains that U-He synths sound more like authentic analog than Omnisphere in my opinion, and in the past I have posted numerous comparison recordings to back up this opinion. I use Jan Hammer-style polyphonic sync sweep a lot (ala Oberheim SEM and Memorymoog), and find Omnisphere does not deliver that sound, while Diva not only delivers that sound but does so literally perfectly to my ears. Nevertheless, Omnisphere is one of my favorite and most-used synths, but not for analog sounds, as ACE and Diva fit that bill better. I use Omnisphere for sampled sounds almost exclusively (same with Trillian).

Which sort of makes it an expensive sampler with a large, and admittedly well executed, sound library.

Because the rest of opinions don't count, only the one that you cherry-pick.

As Gonga says "Yes, but that's just from my perspective".

Spectronics are a great company in my opinion, giving good, relavant and worthwhile updates for nowt. That alone is worth paying for.

The synth itself is awsome and the sounds/ syth options are very easy to fudge around with (in my case lol) and get good results. Its expensive but you absoltulty get what you pay for.

So let's jump on the opinion we don't like.
