Free Omnisphere

[Perpetuo Carlson]

Justinstalled Logic X and tried to open up my go-to synth VST, omnisphere, only to find out that logic x will not recognize omnisphere with the rest of the audio units. All my native instruments plugins work fine and were validated upon install of logic x but it won't even detect omnisphere. It's worth noting I did not delete logic 9 from the Mac after completed install of Logic X. Could that be the issue? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

I also cannot locate Omnisphere in Logic Pro X. I suspect I must have the 32 bit version. Is the 64 bit version a free download/upgrade? I know Spectrasonics has since released Omnisphere 2, so I'm really late to the party.

Same issues here......I called Spectrasonics to check on compatibility of current version of Omnisphere with Logic Pro X and they said there should be no problem, as it is audio units based. Omnisphere shows up in the list of audio units when I scan for it, but nowhere can I access it in Logic Pro X. I also kept Logic Pro 9 on my Mac Pro, and it loads Omnisphere just fine. Guess I will call Spectrasonics back again on Monday, and Apple as well. You have to wonder how much testing Apple does for third party products before releasing a new version. Being that I paid two and a half times more money for Omnisphere than Logic Pro X costs, I'm not a happy camper. Wish I could be optimistic for a quick fix of this, but considering there are still major unresolved issues in Mountain Lion and Photoshop CS6 after a whole year, it doesn't bode well.

Check you're running the latest version. AFAIK Omnisphere has been 64bit for as long as I have owned it, but the External Memory Streaming feature in it suggests it once had to endure a plugin memory limit, leading me to think earlier versions may have been 32bit.

Well now the interesting part is that omnisphere is working fine with Logic X on my iMac. I can't even seem to find my omnisphere library in the Finder on my MacBook. The only place it seems to exist and work on my MacBook is in Logic 9 so I'm trying to figure out what went wrong.

Yes, I'm running the latest, 64bit version. I think the issue may be that with the rearrangment of things I was looking in the wrong place. Going to check it out now. Thanks to all for your suggestions. Interface changes do tend to throw me for a loop sometime.

Thank you. I suspect I was confused and not looking in the right place. I''ll check it out now. I appreciate your help. Interface changes often challenge me, as I grow accustomed to things being in one place and they get moved to another. Hopefully this is the case.

Essentially, I had installed Omnishpere on my macbook air with my old discs without ever going to update it, writing the updates off based on the fact that they came out much before I purchased my Macbook Air. In doing that, I was running an out of date version of Omnishpere.
