Yan Filiatrault Posted March 10, 2023 Share Posted March 10, 2023 And they added extra loyalty discounts that are good to current and future purchases. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevin H Posted March 11, 2023 Share Posted March 11, 2023 For owning the other titles I’m seeing 30% loyalty discount. If you don’t own the other titles looks like buying two gets you 20% off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulo Posted March 11, 2023 Share Posted March 11, 2023 I've defended Spectrasonics many times over the years to people saying that Omnisphere is too expensive, but I do think that they have somewhat lost the plot with the prices of these extensions. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lionel Posted March 12, 2023 Share Posted March 12, 2023 I want their sonic extensions mainly for their included FX units. Top shelf stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rasure Posted March 12, 2023 Share Posted March 12, 2023 I think if you have all of the previous extensions as I do, I got an email with 30% off plus an extra $59.60 off with a code for being a loyal supporter. I only paid $44.70 for Twisted Trees. If you have the previous 4 extensions might be worth checking your spam folder 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reid Rosefelt Posted March 12, 2023 Share Posted March 12, 2023 I think the idea is to get more credit and money to the people who have made Omnisphere what it is over the years. I applaud that, but I wonder what the future of Omni is going to be. Is there going to be an Omnisphere 3? Wouldn't this new paid content be exactly what we'd expect in Omni 3? I'm still hoping for another library like Keyscape and Trilian. For example, Guitarscape or Synthscape. Give us a whole set of deep-sampled instruments, plus a free set of new Omni sounds to go with it. But when Spectrasonics releases a nylon guitar as an "extension, then does that mean no GuitarScape is coming? 🤔 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zo Posted March 13, 2023 Share Posted March 13, 2023 Interface is the only thing i need , omnispher as a preset player is ok , as a sound design tools is oldish ... hence people buying presets lol They should do a real lifting and make it snappier ...it is slow and outdated ... i went to a shop i remeber back then to buy a sub fatty and then when out with omni and trillian with the moog tribute saying to myself i will have moog and more .. it was true and it served me welll ...but i m in a spot at my age that i feel like selling all softwarecand grabbing a good synth hw and have fun ( again )...

rasure Posted March 13, 2023 Share Posted March 13, 2023 Speaking as someone who has created 3 libraries for onmisphere (2 free 1 paid) I appreciated how much time and effort goes into making them So $149 at base price for patches, sound sources and new effects, isn't that bad for what you get and the amount of time gone into making it. I've created hundreds of my own patches from scratch over time and find Omnisphere a really powerful sound design tool if you know how to use it. I'm still finding out things in Omnisphere I never knew about! Always learning 🙂 Is Omnisphere perfect? no, definitely room for improvements for sure. I have lots of other synths form other companies too as I'm sure you all have, but 99% of the time end up back in Omnisphere. Spectrasonics have been pretty generous with free updates over the years, they are a good solid company worth supporting IMHO. Talking of what Reid said RE updates, I bought their "Atmosphere" vst years ago, obviously the don't sell it now, but all the content from that product ended up in Omnisphere. So, would Omnisphere 3 if it was ever released have all the Sonic Extensions added? who knows, but I would expect a serous discount if they were to be added. Same with RMX a lot of the paid for addon stuff was added. Kind Regards Spectrasonics FanBoi lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MG: How about if we tell people that you really do listen to the feedback, because you are a swell guy, and now we're going to reduce the prices a bit as long as you buy more than one.
