Do Spectrasonics Virtual Instruments use copy protection?
Yes, we have our own system. Once you've installed and opened the plugin, you'll need to authorize the plugin on our web site, via your User Account. It's fast and easy, and you'll get your Response Code for your computer immediately. You don't have to use your music computer to do the web authorization.

Do Spectrasonics Virtual Instruments use an iLok or any kind of dongle for Copy Protection?
No. All Spectrasonics products use a custom-developed Challenge/Response system. This system allows you to install and authorize 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Additionally, with our system, you aren't limited to using them on only one computer. Since all Spectrasonics instruments have a 'single-user/multiple-computer' license, you can install and use them on as many computers that you own and will be using yourself.

Does this mean I can use my Spectrasonics Virtual Instruments on more than one computer at a time?
Yes. This is no problem as long as you are the only user.

Jan 22, 2015 After many years of development, we are thrilled to announce that Omnisphere 2 was released on April 30, 2015. This is the first v2.0 of any Spectrasonics instrument and it's truly a gigantic one. Jan 22, 2015 i did always say that Omnisphere did what Kore 2 never ever got near. Omnisphere 2 is Kore 3. So i am ending up a bit more positive. Clearly if Komplete Kontrol had some of the same layering/browsing functions then NI would be really ahead of the game - but unfortunately, it does not. Omnisphere 2 is available as a download for registered users through the Spectrasonics Webstore/Techshop. Once you have downloaded Omnisphere 2 via the Download Manager, follow this set of instructions to install it on your Windows system. Jun 20, 2016 Click Here for How to Make Beats Like the Pros.

What if I need more than one install for laptop use, if my hard drive crashes, or if I get a new computer?
Not a problem! Our web site is available around the clock to handle these situations immediately. It's very easy to do it online and you'll always be able to get the authorizations you need from Spectrasonics.

I'm concerned about what would happen to my Spectrasonics Virtual instruments if the company were to go out of business? Would I be still be able to authorize them?
Absolutely! At Spectrasonics, we believe it is essential to guarantee to our users the ability to get lifetime authorizations for the Spectrasonics instruments they purchased. In the unlikely event that the company were to go out of business, we would provide for all registered users to get continued authorizations. In fact, we already have a system in place for this contingency. However, the good news is that this event is highly unlikely - we’ve been in business for a long time and we plan to be around for many years!

Are Omnisphere 1 and Omnisphere 2 different instruments/products?
No. Omnisphere 2 is simply the next major version of Omnisphere. Everything from version 1 is included in Omnisphere 2 of course!

If I already own Omnisphere, is there an Upgrade to Omnisphere 2?
Yes. If you already are an Omnisphere customer, you are eligible for the Omnisphere 2 Upgrade!

How is the Upgrade delivered?
The Omnisphere 2 Upgrade package will be shipped on 30^th April 2015. The upgrade package includes an upgrade code. The Omnisphere 2 upgrade will be a 17 GB download which will be made available through your Spectrasonics user account, once you have registered your upgrade code.

Will the Omnisphere 2 Upgrade be available as a physical product?
Not at this time. The Spectrasonics download service is highly reliable though… even with slower connections.

Will Omnisphere 2 replace my Omnisphere plug-in?
Yes. Omnisphere 2 is the next version of Omnisphere. The Omnisphere 2 Upgrade contents (17GB) will merge with the existing Omnisphere 1 library and become one product, replacing Omnisphere 1 as a plug-in.

When opening older projects which uses a patch from Omni 1, will they load the same?
Absolutely – it is still Omnisphere! Version 2 is fully backwards compatible with version 1 projects.

Will custom saved patches/multis be effected when upgrading to Omnisphere 2?
They will open and operate the same as always.

Will the audio import in Omnisphere 2 be for single samples or multi-samples?
It is one sample of any length per soundsource. You can layer up to two soundsources in a patch and 8 patches in a multi.

Keep in mind that Omnisphere’s focus is as a synthesizer and will never be a sampler with multiple velocities, key-mapping, round-robin, etc. – there are other instruments out there that do that very well.

The idea here is to easily turn your audio files and even your audio tracks/mixes into synthesis source for Omnisphere 2s powerful oscillators. You’d be amazed at how much you can creatively mangle one sound and make something amazing!

What if I recently purchased Omnisphere? Do I have to pay the full upgrade price?
No. The good news is that there’s a grace period free upgrade available from the Spectrasonics site if you have purchased Omnisphere between October 2014 thru to May 2015. This also means that if you do not currently own Omnisphere, you can buy Omnisphere 1 now and you can upgrade to Omnisphere 2 for free after April 30.

Will the full Omnisphere 2 be available as a download or on a USB drive for installation?
Yes, there will be alternative forms of installation available optionally to registered users in addition to the included set of 8 DVD-ROMs that comes in the box.

However, it’s important to note that all Spectrasonics instruments are sold exclusively as physical boxed product through authorized resellers like Time & Space. Currently, Spectrasonics is shipping its instruments including multiple DVD-ROMs.

However, Spectrasonics is keenly aware that many users no longer have computers with optical drives and there are numerous scenarios when the convenience of downloading or the speed of a USB drive would be a preferred form of installation for different users.

To address all the various user needs and scenarios, Spectrasonics is starting a new Support Services area of their tech shop that will offer Alternative Installation USB Drives and Additional Download Installations for optional purchase. These services are available directly from Spectrasonics for registered users. The price of the Alternative USB Drive service will be $40 and the Additional Download Installation service price is $10.

The great news for new users is that the Omnisphere 2 box includes a 25% Off discount coupon towards these support services.
