The Sound Board

Has anyone actually listened to all the patches in Omni 2 (or 3?) it seems a very time consuming process.

I haven’t gone through all of Komplete 15 yet. I started to bear down last night and am working my way through it. Analog Dreams 1 and 2 seem pretty cool and so does Ashlight, but as you can tell I’m still in the A’s. There’s a ways to go, and that’s not even considering the non-Komplete behemoth that is Omnisphere.

For that matter I bought (Arturia’s?) MixBox and haven’t delved into it past a few effects, also Pro-Q 4 and Saturn. The independent Omni effects package, etc etc.

Then there’s SSO, bought recently on deep sale, and Diva which I haven’t explored fully. Lots of patches to go through-It barely leaves time for writing!

An embarrassment of riches for sure, but also a time suck.

No!

Such talk is foolishness in today's day and age imo. Whatever I listen to in isolation when browsing bears no relation to what I'm looking for in the heat of any particular battle. This is why I'm banging on about tag browsers all the time - I want to start from a blank page each time and drill down to whatever I'm looking for to audition. I may have 20.000 Omni patches, but that very quickly drills down to a manageable list when looking for something specific.
