There are 4 'Attributes' windows, so the more selections you add the more filtered and precise the results are. This lets you select categories and Attributes (like with an I-POD) that match the kind of sound you're looking for. To further simply your search Spectrasonics has implemented an easy yet powerful 'Attributes' filter. Within each browser there's the very handy and simple Search field where you can search by either name, Tag, Keyword, and even Notes text (more on this below). The browsers have their own dedicated windows, which is a nice improvement on Atmosphere which had drop-down menus. In fact, Soundsources can range from complex multi-samples with many velocities to a single sample stretched across the keyboard. Each Soundsource is unique and compelling in its own right and could easily be the sound you need or have been looking for. There were a few times that I spent many frustrating minutes looking in the “Soundsource” browser for a “Patch” I had just been using! But don't dismiss the Soundsources as just simple building blocks of Patches, because nothing could be further from the truth. It will no doubt save you time in the long run. It's easy to confuse these three elements in the beginning, so it's a good idea to try and understand the differences. The hierarchy is as follows: Multis are made up of up to 8 Patches, while Patches are made up of one or two Soundsources (or samples, more on that later). Omnisphere has 3 browser types: Multi, Patch, and Soundsource. By clicking only a few times you can go from a huge list to a very reduced, and specific one. Obviously work-flow was a major priority here. And they've succeeded in doing just this without confusing the user with too many options. The people at Spectrasonics have therefore tried to come up with a browser that is designed to help the user get easy and quick access to specific sounds, or types of sounds, within their enormous library. Having so many sounds is a double-edged sword, because while you're glad to have so many sound sources and possibilities, you can easily feel overwhelmed by their sheer numbers. This means that while you needed to open multiple instances of Atmosphere when you wanted it to play more than one part or sound, one instance of Omnisphere can play up to eight different parts at the same time (cpu willing) thanks to the new STEAM engine.
One of the main differences between Atmosphere and Omnisphere is that the latter is Multi-Timbral while the former was not.

Registration and updating are pretty quick and painless and you should take the opportunity to start downloading the truly excellent video tutorials on their site.

Once everything's installed, it's time to go to Spectrasonic's site to register and get the latest versions of the driver and the patch & soundsource libraries. Fortunately you can interrupt installation and resume where you left off (starting at the beginning of the next DVD), even if you turn off the computer. Omnisphere has a core library of 40-plus gigas and comes on 6 DVDS! Installation can take anywhere from 15 to 45 minutes per DVD (depending on the speed of your drive) which means that it could take up to 4 and a half hours to install! In my case, each DVD took around 35-40 minutes which meant the whole thing took about 4 hours. Atmosphere fit on 6 CDs and took around an hour to install. Or reserve a copy of imitone prime for $60 which includes more advanced features and nationality.Nowhere is the contrast between Atmosphere and Omnisphere more obvious than with the difference in library sizes. You can pre-order a copy of the software, which is set to be released in May, with a donation of just $25.
And to date the initiative has managed to raise over $43,000, well past its $20,000 goal. The creator of imitone, Evan Balster, is currently raising funds on Kickstarter to help cover development costs.
The best part: It’s not just a promise. Imitone is fully-functional right now, and will be available to backers within a month after this Kickstarter concludes. Other, still stranger uses exist, but those are for you to discover! You can use imitone to compose music, perform it live, digitize recordings, dynamically control audio effects, train your singing, or tune your instrument. You can control imitone with your voice or a musical instrument, and a regular laptop-quality microphone. Because it acts as a MIDI controller, thousands of music programs already work with imitone, including the popular (and free!) GarageBand for Mac.
