I watched Eric Persing's video presentation of Spectrasonics Omnisphere 2. Eric Persing was the magic person behind the great Roland sounds of the 1990s.
Unfortunately, Omnisphere 2 seems to be much too demanding for the use with a medium-performance laptop or Microsoft Surface Pro 3, and I don't see how I could use it conveniently in a live situation.
And there seems to be the rub. On one side the sound and tweakgeeks (is that a new word?:)), and, on the other side, the gigging troopers. Shall the twain ever meet?
In another thread here this morning:
http://www.synthzone.com/forum/ubbthreads.php/topics/398543/Interesting_Keyboard_Add_On#Post398543We have the guy talking throughout the video without once putting his fingers on the keys in front of him - can he actually play, I wonder.
Sorry, but I need to see someone with a live video with a floor full of dancers before I can get excited about this whole VST thing. Some of us don't spend our time burrowed away in a back room.
So if anyone has a video such as I just described, please do us working guys a favour and put it up please.
