Retrosphere V1 for Omnisphere 2.5; Signs of Life for Omnisphere 2.6 (O2 Unify) Kontakt 5/6. Del Norte EDM / Chill. Our forums can be found HERE. Jun 27, 2021 I missed the 2.7 announcement and wasn't even aware of the update (running ver. 2.6 here), so thanks for cluing me in. Yeh, I know, it clearly says 'updates available' every time you start it up. Situational blindness, I guess. I have current projects that use Omnisphere, Trilian and Keyscape.
Omnisphere 2 Forum Software
I've been in almost daily communication with Spectrasonics for the last week and a half and while the tech has been helpful, we still haven't solved the problem. Figured I'd run it by you folks.
Windows 7, i7 quad-core, 16gb ram, 2gb nvidia gpu. Omnisphere 2 ran successfully, even with multiple instances. I signed up for the 2.5 beta and ran that without issue. When the final release turned up I downloaded it and here's where I ran into trouble.
After applying the update I launched O2 from the desktop icon. The bottom half of the splash screen was blank (solid black, no printed info). There were no presets listed, no waves to choose from. The browser showed blue folders on a white background. I could click dropdown boxes and see things like clock division. I closed it and launched Sonar X3 to open O2 from there. Same thing. I thought that something happened during the update and that it might be the safest thing to reinstall O2. From disks. It takes a long time.
This time I launched Sonar first and was prompted for authorization. Except that where the challenge code window usually is, there was nothing. The 'copy' and 'paste' buttons were there, but no codes, no window to copy from or paste to. Fast forward to two more reinstallations from disk. No change.
Spectrasonics was kind enough to provide me a download of O2 to save me time. They had me apply an Easy Fix and another Windows Update to allow the download. The results were identical. No presets, no challenge code/windows. So just for the hell of it, I clicked 'copy' and on the web site authorization window clicked paste. A code appeared. I advanced to get a response code, copied that and returned to O2. I clicked the 'paste' button though there was nowhere to paste the code, and was prompted to close O2 and reopen--a normal authorization process. Unfortunately the results were the same.
Now, after one of the reinstalls I opened Stylus RMX to see if I had hosed it in the process. It asked for authorization. I did that, but I'm not sure why that happened. Then before the last O2 reinstallation I uninstalled Stylus, then installed O2, then installed Stylus again. It prompted for authorization and worked predictably.
But I haven't gained any ground. O2 continues to show a blank splash screen, no presets, no waves. Any thoughts?
