Other features include a swing amount control and a velocity slider. You can set up to a four octave range, change the speed of the arp, and adjust the length of the events youвЂ™ve configured in the arp. The modes are Legato (the arp pattern continues as long as notes are played legato), Song Position (depends on the host settings) and Note (restarts pattern with each new note played). The three included Trigger modes will determine how and when the arp is restarted. The Stairs mode is a rising pattern which rises upward in a similar way to the shape of stairs: two notes upward and then one note down, and it continues that pattern repeatedly. The Spread mode is similar to Join, but it works the other way around alternating low and high, but this time gradually working their way outward (versus inward).

Here are three examples of some of the newer modes: The Join mode plays the low note, then the highest note, and continues alternating between notes until they reach each other (hence вЂњjoinвЂќ) with the intervals between the notes closing in towards the middle. Those modes include Chord, Up, Down, Up and Down, As Played, Stairs, Join, and many others.

OMNISPHERE 2 UPDATE

With the 2.6 update Spectrasonics has added eight additional pattern modes for the arpeggiator giving it a total of nineteen modes. Here is an earlier review we published for version 2.3 which covers some other details: This review will mainly lean towards what is new for version 2.6. It works with AU, AAX, VST 2.4 compatible hosts and there is a standalone version. For the PC it requires Windows 7 (or higher OS) 64-bit, and for the Mac youвЂ™ll need OS X 10.11 El Capitan (or higher). Omnisphere requires a 2.4 GHz or higher CPU and 8+ GB of RAM. The re-sizable display makes it a joy to use on any size of monitor. A Multi is a higher level than the part that can use a combination of patches in different configurations with up to eight parts simultaneously. A huge selection of effects are on board to give your patches just the right edginess or polish that they might need.

There are 48 slots for setting up modulation in the mod matrix section, eight LFOs, twelve envelopes, waveshaping, ring modulation, FM and granular synthesis can further enhance your patches.

Several filter types are available with serial and parallel settings. You can easily copy and paste the settings between the layers. The sample sources can also be manipulated with the synthesis features. For each layer, you can select between sample sources or waveforms for standard synthesis with optional unison or the Harmonia feature which multiplies each layerвЂ™s oscillator capabilities. Each patch (part) can have up to four layers, effects and a dedicated arp. Before I go into any depth on the new features in 2.6, I thought IвЂ™d briefly describe some basics of Omnisphere in case you are not familiar with it. Over 1,600 new patches have been added, it has over 500 DSP waveforms and it now includes over 14,000 sounds to choose from. Omnisphere 2.6 features a new and improved arpeggiator and support for many more hardware synthesizers.
