    Mac user Here

    I have placed .componant / .vst / .vst3
    I have placed the ReFx folder in my shared

    Should the Preset folder be placed in the same folder as the 170gb file?
    Should the folder be called Nexus Library or Nexus Content
    I will then change .json file to point o the nexus Library?

    can anyone help please?

    ive downloaded both files the 800mb and 170bg files but I don’t see the folder structure your showing.

    but I’m still extracting the 170gb file, does it come from that?

    definitely agree with that last line, but the audioz poll shows that most producers that crack stuff are electronic and hip hop producers. that's why i was generalizing. totally fine if u don't agree with me but that's just how i see it. even more with how many hip hop producers use the same in memorium or whatever preset. hip hop producers see their favourite youtube channel or producer using omnisphere and think "i need this plugin" without exploring their stock plugins which are already pretty good

    this thread just makes me laugh

    If omnisphere had organizated presets and samples as nexus 3 does, it would be surely the most used synth ever, the sounds from the samples are pretty realistic and have nice built-in effects
    I only chose to use nexus 3 in place of it because with my workflow it stacks way better


    Omnisphere be like:

    Me: I need a lead

    Me: opens omnisphere

    Me: selects "lead" section

    Lead section: you mean cat_with_gonorrhea sound fx?

    i doubt that they crack, they are users, people that crack stuff have not really time for making music at all.
    its wonderful how poeple still mix that up, if u install something from Z, you are not a cracker, hacker or something, you are only a downloader nothing more.
    If you crack/reverse applications, plugins, then you are a reverser/cracker.

    Nexus is good for layering, like have one simple pad sound going on and throw sylenth1/spire you name it - over it, but for using it as main sound, its just to obvious and to cheesy sounding.

    Nexus got the most overused sounds in, with very limited editing, while in omnisphere you can even import sounds or change sounds completely.
    while in Nexus you are stuck with what reFX feeds you for big $$$ compared.
    Library updates for Omnisphere are free.

    Side note, im still at the init sound, actual the dll only wants to connect to a refx server, nothing with a different AWS server.
    i am not sure how everybody got this working, because for me it doesnot work - even i followed the guides i posted myself from the readme files included. hmm i hope somebody can make work in a better way.

    don't change the name of any folder except the root of the content you downloaded to Nexus Library and then place it in your Applications folder, or if on remote drive, use Symbolic Link to do the same unless you want to fool with renaming the jspon file,

    leave the content files you downloaded in tact. Just rename it (the main folder holding all the folders) to Nexus Library. of course I'm not looking at what you downloaded and how it was organized.I used the original share of it.

    from user "Fireface"

    In the folder : NEXUS library

    This is how the folders inside should look like.

    Arp Presets
    FX Presets
    Impulses
    Licenses
    NKS
    Presets
    Samples
    Skins
    TG Presets

    I reckon it still might be.
    HELLO. YOUR QUESTION ISN'T A SUMMARY. AND THE ARCHITECTURE AND DAW ARE IRRELEVANT.
    NO, NOT ALL LIBRARIES, AS SEEN EVEN ON THIS PAGE.

    Who do you think Spectrasonics makes products for?
    People who all they do is download cracked plugins to make "sick beatz"?
    Nope.

    Omnisphere has a great sample explorer. It's just that its preset explorer is not that nice.

    For me the preset explorer is pretty bad (remembers me nexus 2, even more with the "update" that some categories are no more categories).
    About the sample explorer: I think it has so many categories and subcategories that they end up polluting the organization of sections
    the way the plugin resizes and the over-sized categories space don't help too haha

    I stayed away from it for sooooo long as it’s not my genre usually, but as you say, the rare stuff, it is so much fun to experiment with
