Sound design boutique company The Very Loud Indeed Co. has launched a collection of 120 new cinematic patches for the Omnisphere virtual instrument by Spectrasonics.
Omnisphere Cobalt includes 188 new sound sources which have been recorded and designed specifically for this soundset. It only uses these new sound sources and does not recycle the stock ones in Omnisphere or any other previous set from the company.
According to founder and sound designer Richie Nieto,
“With Cobalt, we took a different approach for crafting its patches. Instead of using recordings of real instruments or objects, we designed a large number of sounds using a variety of synthesizers. Then we recorded those sounds, ran them through a crazy array of weird processors, and finally we used them as raw sources in Omnisphere. The result is a collection of patches that sound organic but have a non-organic origin, which gives them a very unique character.”
Omnisphere Cobalt is compatible with Omnisphere 2.8 or later. The sound library is available now at the introductory price of $19 USD until July 3rd, 2025 (regular $29 USD).
