DUDE- you just emailed me a bunch of times!!!With membership comes one advantage at RMS - you get notified on all new additions to the World of Omnisphere. Normally, this is fine as there are not that many new submissions that come around often. There are times when there could be a new label to joins RMS where they have multiple "new to RMS" submissions that you will receive emails on. You can either just enjoy each new email and explore each collection - or you can sign in to your account at RMS and turn off notifications. Here is how Visit www.rockymountainsounds.com and click on the Log In section on the top right Once logged in, click on "PROFILE" On the left hand menu, select the last option "Settings" This page will provide you with multiple ways to turn off (or on) email notifications. Once you are done updating your selections you are ready to receive (or not receive) those specific emails.

I don't see a download link in my user area? What the heck????Don't worry! You are safe and the world is as it should be (sort of). Simply message here and request your links again. There is an expiry date on original purchased download links so our collections stay safe from those pirates! ARRRRR! (reminder- only purchase RMS collections from Rocky Mountain Sounds, That Worship Sound, PlugInGuru or Triple Spiral Audio - if you see them for sale anywhere else- they have been stolen and someone is trying to profit off of them).

Why buy Rocky Mountain Sounds Omnisphere 2 expansions?Custom samples are a key focus at Rocky Mountain Sounds. Each Omnisphere 2 collection brings a chance for us to include our own custom sound creations. These range from taking hardware synths and sampling them with creative FX – resulting in new synth tones we can base our expansions around. Field recording is a huge passion and there is something magical when nature and found sounds can be brought into Omnisphere 2 to give us a new palette to design patches around. These valuable additions are what sets RMS Omnisphere 2 expansions out from the crowd of factory-based presets. Check out the list of Omnisphere 2 expansions that have new custom-designed samples taking Omnisphere into different sonic adventures (as of May 31, 2022).

Please include order number, date and collection(s). Due to some upgrades, there may be a small charge to upgrade (ex. Polar Ice X).

If I already purchased an RMS collection, why do I need a coupon to get an update?Rocky Mountain Sounds uses Wix as the website provider. As awesome as Wix is for providing for a slew of usable tools and features that surpass other platforms - they do lack in digital product features. When you originally purchase a product- the exact file is placed in a database that Wix keeps forever. If a new set of links are resent- you will receive the exact version your purchased - regardless if there have been updates. To fix this shortcoming, I provide free update coupons based on the original sales order number. You will be provided a new coupon code (upon request so please watch socials or the website for any update notifications), which you use to re-purchase the collection again (at zero cost). This will give you the latest version of the collection. Hopefully one day Wix will enhance their digital product support so this extra step doesn't need to happen.

How do I install a .guru file?This is as simple as installing a .omnisphere file. First off, make sure you have dragged and dropped the .omnisphere file onto an open instance of Spectrasonics Omnisphere 2. This will install the master collection and associated custom samples. Second, open up an instance of PlugInGuru's Unify. Then, drag and drop the .guru file on top of Unify. You will see a pop up notifying you that the Unify Enhanced collection was installed into Unify. Then go and enjoy all your new sounds (and shift-click on different patches to start building instant combinations - this is one of the most satisfying aspects of Unify and will let you build amazing combos using different instruments- regardless if they come from Omnisphere or not).

What is Unify?PlugInGuru Unify is a standalone and plug-in host and virtual instrument for Mac and PC. It is like a Swiss Army Knife for musicians - bringing together any and all plug-in instruments and FX into a "unified" interface. Gone are the days of opening up a specific plug-in, navigating to it's own list of patches, and hunting to find the right sound for your project or performance. Now, Unify gives you access to all of your sounds - regardless of which plug-in's they are found in - and lets you instantly combine them. The Omnisphere 2 expansions from Rocky Mountain Sounds all include a separate Unify Enhancement folder - providing instant access to the Omnisphere collections - as well as additional macro knob setup using Unify's internal FX - and BONUS patch content that doesn't exist in the Omnisphere 2 version. These value-add bonus that comes with each collection for those that use Unify. Purchase Unify HERE User comments about what Unify is an how they use it - if you have loads of plugins, Unify can allow you to quickly work with them together in a variety of different situations (jamming, recording, working with various DAWs, live performance) in a consistent yet customizable environment - ...for me it's Skippy's enthusiastic tutorials and Shane's support, second to none - being able to use all your plugins in one streamlined user-friendly environment is pretty damn fantastic. I primarily build my own patches combining the instruments and effects that I own including the best free ones out there. It's easy and a lot of fun and the result is varying from awesome to mind blowing! - Macros: being able to alter and scale many parameters at the same time on one macro is liberating from a performance perspective. Mega Patches: being able to have patches made up of many different plugins for instant recall is amazing. Live: I use Unify for my live rig. I have a Maschine Jam which recalls and controls sounds in realtime. With this configuration, everything is loaded in RAM, so no loading times when using even the largest pianos in Keyscape. Support: Shane is always for for implementing and helping with configurations and requests.

Do I need PlugInGuru Unify to use Omnisphere Expansions?No, each Unify Enhanced product comes with the regular Spectrasonics Omnisphere ".omnisphere" installation file. You can take this and drop it on an open instance of Omnisphere 2 and it will self-install. For Unify users, there is a separate folder to add the converted collection into Unify. Although every Unify installation requires the pre-installation of the .omnisphere file, you do not need to use or own Unify to use the Omnisphere collection iteself.
