The latest versions of Omnisphere 2, Keyscape, Trilian and Stylus RMX are supported on the following Mac operating systems: 10.13 High Sierra, 10.14 Mojave, and 10.15 Catalina. Older versions of our instruments are supported on the operating systems that they were designed and advertised to run on.
Apple released OS X 10.13 (High Sierra) on 25 September, 2017. This update has caused GarageBand to have problems using many plugins, including those developed by Spectrasonics.
Pluginguru Kolours for Keyscape + Omnisphere This is library #41 for Omnisphere we have released! 126 Patches and 30 Multis that EXPLODE the range of “Kolours” you can work with! VERY expressive Grand Pianos, Chill pianos, Hip Hop pianos, powerful Rock n Roll pianos = TONS of super useful. I have the Keyscape USB Drives (A and B) which I constantly re installed, then UPDATED the Keyscape software, then Soundsource, then Patches, THEN Authorized it as per your instructions. As for Omnisphere, it was running fine until I updated it to the latest 2.5 version along with the soundsources and patches. Keyscape now also includes this cutting-edge library of over 1200 patches specially designed for users who also have Omnisphere 2. The richly detailed keyboard sounds of Keyscape have been dramatically transformed using Omnisphere’s deep synthesis capabilities. These truly amazing patches offer an extremely wide variety of incredible sounds.
Regarding Omnisphere 1, which was released in 2008 and was publicly available through April 2015 (prior to the relase of Omnisphere 2) - Omnisphere 1 is officially supported on Mac OS 10.6 (Snow Leopard) - 10.10 (Yosemite); it will not install on 10.12 (Sierra) and later.
If you would like to use an older version of Omnisphere, make sure it is installed on a supported operating system.
If you have an older version of Omnisphere and would like to use it on Mac OS 10.12 (Sierra), simply upgrade to the latest version of Omnisphere here.
The latest version of Omnisphere contains many added features and sounds in addition to compatibility with 10.12 Sierra and full backwards compatibility with older versions of Omnisphere.
Please note: This video was created on a Mac (OS X 10.8.5) designed to mainly assist Mac OS X 10.7 (and higher) users with locating their 'hidden' Users - Library folder. The video and guide then goes through where to place the additional patches so they are detected in Omnisphere.
Windows PC users can still follow this video to see where to place your additional patches. However you will just need to ensure you have located your Spectrasonics folder and then follow the guide / video from here or please view below.
Overview of Video and Guide Details:
Download your purchased expansion library with the Time+Space Connect installer - for ease select your Desktop when asked where you would like to place these files.
Once the download is finished, open the downloaded contents folder into a window.
For Mac users - To locate the CORRECT location to place your files, from within the Finder menu (across the top of your screen) select 'Go'.
With the Go 'drop-down' menu up on the screen hold down your 'alt' key on your keyboard to 'unhide' the Library folder.
Select the Library folder and double-click the 'Application Support' folder.
Where to place the Patches:
Now locate your 'Spectrasonics' folder and go to 'STEAM', 'Omnisphere', 'Settings Library'.
Here you will find a 'Patches' and a 'Multis' folder.
Double-click the 'Patches' folder.
From your desktop, double-click your downloaded folder to open it into a second window.
Place the two windows next to each other so you can see both windows - your 'Patches' folder and your new content folder.
Within the 'Patches' folder, create a new folder and name it after the developer of the library (ILIO, Audiority or The Unfinished). Now double-click this new folder to open it.
Now simply highlight the new patches folders from the second window and drag&drop them into your new folder.
Please note - the Audiority bundle (Trapshere library) also includes bonus Wav files. These are just for your use, Omnisphere does not need them. You can place them with your usual sound library files if you wish.
Please note - The Unfinished libraries contain 'Patches' presets and 'Multis' presets. Please ensure you place the PATCHES into this Patches folder and then go back to the 'Omnisphere' 'Settings Library' window to locate your 'Multis' folder. Then just create a new folder in here called 'The Unfinished' and drag&drop the additional MULTIS into this folder. This stage is not covered in the video.
Now the files are in the correct location. Open Omnisphere in your DAW / music host.
When the Omnisphere interface loads, please press the 'CHECK FOR UPDATES' button (top-left) and ensure all green lights are showing and that you have installed all of the needed updates. Without the latest update, some presets may not work correctly!
