User Audio

Omnisphere allows you to import your own audio to use as Soundsources for custom Patches and Multis. You can process and manipulate the audio in creative ways using Omnisphere’s powerful synthesis capabilities. Each imported audio file will become a User Soundsource in Omnisphere.

You might want to import a guitar track, a vocal, or even an entire mix and transform the audio into something completely different: a cinematic texture, a percussive sound, or even a synth lead. You can then save them as Patches and easily Share them with other users.

There are three ways to import User Audio to Omnisphere: Using the Utility Menu, the Soundsource Browser, or the Granular page.

To load your own audio from the Utility Menu, select User Audio and follow the instructions. After the import process is complete, the Soundsource Browser will be displayed, and your audio (now an Omnisphere User Soundsource), will be automatically selected and played back at the note and duration set by the Audition Note settings.

To delete the audio you imported, you can do so by locating it on your hard drive in the following directory:

STEAM/Omnisphere/Soundsources/User/

After deleting it, you must click the “Refresh” button in your Soundsource Browser to reflect the changes. 

Please see the User Audio section for complete details.

NOTE: The User Audio import function does not support zone-maps, round-robins, multiple velocities, etc. Remember, Omnisphere is not a sampler, it is a synthesizer. The objective is not to play multi-sampled instruments like a sampler, but to be creative in transforming your own audio.
