Omnisphere 3 Hardware Guide

Setting up the Behringer Wave

Setup

To control Omnisphere using the Behringer Wave, you’ll need to do the following:

  • Connect the Wave to your computer via USB.
  • Set up the front panel controls to send MIDI CCs.
  • Enable the Wave as a MIDI input device in the host software you’re using (DAW, Standalone, etc.).
  • Activate the Behringer Wave Hardware Profile in Omnisphere 3 or later.

MIDI OUTPUT SETUP

  • Enter the USER MENU by pressing the PROGRAM button twice.
  • Navigate to the PAR-COM Setting
  • Set PAR-COM to 3. This enables both transmission and reception of MIDI CC messages for sound parameters.
  • Exit the Menu

HOST CONNECTION

Open your host (DAW, Standalone, etc.) and make sure the MIDI interface to which you’ve connected the Matrixbrute is enabled as a MIDI input device.

Profile Notes

Since many important parameters on the Behringer Wave are accessible only through unintuitive menu diving, we made the following assignment to provide immediate mouldation access from the panel:

  • LFO Delay on the Behringer Wave is assigned the depth of LFO1 -> Shape modulation in Omnisphere.

Unassigned Controls

The following Behringer Wave controls have no effect on Omnisphere:

  • Data Knob
  • Number Buttons
  • Left Arrow Button
  • Right Arrow Button
  • Display-Select Buttons

Troubleshooting

Not working? Here are some things to try:

  • Is your DAW receiving MIDI from the Behringer Wave?
  • If you are using the Omnisphere standalone host, make sure the MIDI output channel of the Wave matches the MIDI channel of the Omnisphere part you want to control.
  • Make sure your DAW is configured to correctly route the MIDI output of the Wave to the MIDI channel assigned to the desired Part in Omnisphere.
