Omnisphere 3 offers a massive new factory collection with 18 curated libraries and thousands of inspiring sounds from Spectrasonics award-winning Sound Design team. The new, improved browser speeds up searching with sorting by use and sound category, while unique deep-sampled sound sources are added (e.g., Blown Ostrich Egg, Tonal Sand, Celestaphone, Lyre Harp, Sul Tasto Cello, Percussive Snow, and more).
The factory patches have been updated to fully take advantage of the new effects and features of version 3. With the new lossless optimization, the full Omnisphere 3 library does not take up more disk space compared to Omnisphere 2.
