Automation in Omnisphere
View this Thread in Original format

Hi, I hope this is not a dumb question but I want to know the following. If I open up the Omnisphere synth within my DAW (I use Pro Tools 8) and MIDI program a synth line, can I automate such things as cutoff/filter sweeps with Omnisphere?

Yes, you can automate most of Omni's synthesis parameters in your DAW. In the VST version, you just right-click on any synth parameter, click "Enable Host Automation" (or something like that), and it should then become available as a NRPN value in your host. I assume it works the same, or similarly, in PT.

Yea this question pops up a lot. You have to first turn it on inside Omnisphere, then it works as all other VSTs do.

You can also map multiple parameters to the same knobs/sliders/buttons like with many other VSTs to do some crazy live stuff. CPU may be an issue though.

Thanks for the replies! Cryophonik, I'll try that out later today... hopefully the PT version is similar to the VST version.
