    Hello Everybody!

    First of all thank you so much in advance for your help and for all the info that you spread around the forum. Unfortunately there's something that is going wrong with the installation of Omnisphere 2.

    As a guide says:
    "Run the Installer, go through all the windows, choose where you want to save the DLL files. It should then ask you to insert disk, Double click This! and click OK on the installer."

    The fact here is that the installer doesn't ask me where to save the DLL files (that I guess it's not a big deal), but most important it doesn't ask me to insert a disks. It just install straight away without asking me for disks (and obviously I can't install the whole Omnisphere app like this). I can't really understand how I should install Omnisphere 2. I mount the image, before launching the installer, but the installer goes very fast and it seems that is not installing anything.

    I'm starting to evaluate that I got a corrupted file? I don't think so. The name of the folder is: Spectrasonics.Omnisphere.2.DVDR.D1-D8.-R2R-DYNAMiCS

    Do you know how could I solve this? Thank you SO MUCH in advance!

    Hi,
    not sure if I understood correctly your pb but as far as I remember, you just copy straight the steam folder out of the ISO you got ...
    You should have a look at that video...German one but easy to understand in any language...very useful, at least for me...

    Thank you hayabusa. There are some steps that are not very clear. I can't understand is different from the guide that I found. Do you think that following this guide I risk to corrupt some data of the Mac? Inside the folder of Omnisphere I can read "Don't try to install manually the STEAM folder" which is what he's doing here.

    EDIT: I don't know why, but creating a STEAM folder with all the STEAM folders merged is a nightmare. I don't know if my OS is bugged, but sometimes it doesn't even give me the option to merge the STEAM folders but only to replace them (and the files inside are differents obviously). I'm going crazy with this :(

    Thank you

    Mount Spectrasonics first Omnisphere.iso and then Run Installer, after this I think it asks the rest of the isos. Then run Data Updater and the rest of the updates.

    Deriks, I m surprised about that; I followed exactly what is he doing and it works well for me...I'm on High Sierra. The merge thing was not a problem at all...
    Deriks, at the end I de-installed it anyhow because I didn't find the way to save my preset on my project...at least, I tried it and this a great synth, really generating ideas...I bought it at the end...and I don't regret it.
    Good luck with it:wink:

    I actually can't find the "Spectrasonic" folder in application support. Before and after the installation, there isn't the folder..

    Should I create it?

    Is it a High Sierra problem? Maybe I should update to Mojave?

    Ok, I created the Spectrasonic folder and copied the STEAM folder in it. Installed and patched everything. Now when I enter Logic and I opne Omnisphere it says that it can't locate the STEAM folder and when I try to locate it the logic finder simply doesn't see it (while it sees every other folder in the Mac!). Obviously the STEAM folders exist in the Mac, I can see it outside of Logic.. Any help? Thank you!

    EDIT: I even tried to copy the STEAM folder outside the "Spetrasonic" folder, but Logic can't see it as well. Logic sees the STEAM folder if it's on the desktop.. What can I do? Thanks
