    watch out dude, don't call those 80 gb of bloatware "garbage", these people are religious with omnsphere, they might rate you "funny" and what not. Anyway, simple and logic question answered with butthurt.

    Thanks for the answer but I tried this before and after that there is no sound in Omnisphere.
    You can check it yourself by simply moving all folders from Core Library excluding Waveforms to other location then run Omnisphere.

    it's freaking hilarious. omnisphere's strength is it's immense library of immaculately sampled sound sources. there are a multitude of softsynths that can be used to create sounds without the use of samples. it's not a "simple and logic" question. it's like asking "how can i use kontakt as a synth without all those garbage libraries?". or "how can i use my screwdriver as a hammer?". sure, it's possible, but why? who is going to pay $500 for omnisphere and throw away the main part of the software? it is a silly idea. and just because i rated the question as "funny" doesn't mean i'm "butthurt". i have no axe to grind. i hope the op finds a way to do it. but there was a similar thread four years ago, and nobody ever came up with a solution.

    Kontakt is a sampler + You have his clean version without any additional libriaries. You can use it with your own samples or own instruments without having install 50GB+ stuff.

    I don't wanna use something not according to the intended use.
    I don't wanna use sampler or rompler as synthesizer but synthesizer with additional libraries and samples as synthesizer without additional libraries and samples.

    No, there is not. The way Omnisphere was designed and coded does not allow for it to be used as you would like to. That will required for it to redesigned it. What for? The people who purchased it do so in part because they like its library. Some of them use the factory presets, and never bother with sound design. Moreover, nowadays storage is so cheap that it is not even worth to spend time trying to modify a good sounding library for the sake of saving 54.3 GB of space.

    In this case you should look at all the available option. If you only needed a basic synthesizer, getting married to Omnisphere was not a wise choice. Omnisphere is what it is. she is sexy but not perfect. Either put up with its flaws or get a divorce.

    This is weird. So it's a fake synthesizer? Maybe this is a hidding rompler with advanced editing option.

    Yeah. Maybe 54.3GB is not so much but having 54.3GB of good porn for a rainy day instead of libraries which I never use would be better deal for me. But I hoped it would be easy. Matter of registry script, deleting some folders and voilà.

    :hahaha:54GB of porn. That is for beginners. I have a 4tb hard drive (with back up) full of porn. You never know when they will shut it down vro!

    Nothing fake about it. It is just the way it was designed. Certainly, if Eric wanted it to be use without its library he would have opted to do so but he chose not to.

    When I bought my version of Omnisphere it came with it's own 500 gig HD with the library installed. It's nowhere near close to capacity.

    @The Pirate I had no idea that it needed the included library to function. I thought that it just had to find the Steam folder and voila, game on. Ya learn something new every day.

    Partly out of context. I said that the way Omnisphere was designed, and coded does not allow for it to be used as porn @Roject would like to use it. You certainly can unlink its library completely or partially but it is not going to work as is. When you try to use your own sound, this is what you get

    Now, let us try to "fool" Omnisphere with a fake STEAM folder, and this is what you will get

    In sum, what porn @Roject wants is "possible" but not worth the effort. As you know developers do protect their source code. As I said, there are plenty of options, and storage is very cheap nowadays. It is time for porn @Roject to continue being married to Omnisphere or get a divorce. Teh question is Omnisphere or porn?

    Just because I think it wasn't mentioned.. Make sure to check Serum in depth. It is really a beast of a synth with great sound and customisability.

    I've no idea about Omnisphere, but I'd recommend Alchemy (if you can find it or use Logic), Absynth might be another choice for deep synthesis without a massive library. Both do samples.

    now when I think about it, you can probably try replacing all unneeded Omnisphere files with dummy/empty files, hopefully plugin won't notice that, unless you'll try to perform any future updates...

    forget about deleting entire STEAM folder, it won't work that way


    if you want decent "just-synth", Synthmaster KV331 is my favourite goto - don't get discouraged by its graphical interface, it's very capable synth sound-wise

    I tried exactly same thing yesterday with one folder from Core Library but after that no sound in Omnisphere. I tried other things like edit two files Preferences.xml and zmap.index. I deleted all the info excluding waveforms but no luck. No sound in Omnisphere after that. Structure of this plugin is very weird. This is a job for some smart guy who knows basics of programming and stuff like that because one small step can stop this task from succeeding.

    I think that the solution is to change some registry keys (assuming you use Win) but you are of course playing with fire here.

    I think your best bet would be to use Camel Audio Alchemy. Comes with Logic if you're on Mac. Easily available on the "sibling" site for Windows.
    If you're using it on Windows purely for making your own sounds, get the v1.25 instead of the latest v1.55, as it's not possible to edit your audio sources in v1.55.
