- Activate the microKORG Hardware Profile in Omnisphere 2.6 or higher.

Troubleshooting
Not working? Here are some things to try:
- Is your DAW receiving MIDI from the microKorg?
- If you are using the Omnisphere standalone host, make sure the MIDI output channel of the microKorg 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 microKorg to the MIDI channel assigned to the desired Part in Omnisphere.
