Please note: This video was created on a Mac (OS X 10.8.5) designed to mainly assist Mac OS X 10.7 (and higher) users with locating their 'hidden' Users - Library folder. The video and guide then goes through where to place the additional patches so they are detected in Omnisphere.
Windows PC users can still follow this video to see where to place your additional patches. However you will just need to ensure you have located your Spectrasonics folder and then follow the guide / video from here or please view below.

If the number of third-party patch libraries exceeds this number, Omnisphere's search function will be impaired. To workaround this limitation, simply move the third-party patch library folders into the 'User' folder inside of the 'Patches' folder. Oct 04, 2011 After the install, I launch Logic and open an instance of Omnisphere. The very first patch I select shows the progress percentage reach 100%, then I get a popup error: Cannot load SoundSource 'blah, blah' from Directory Core Library. File 'xxxx.zmap' may be missing or corrupted. Try refreshing the SoundSource Browser. Questions: 1.

Download your purchased expansion library with the Time+Space Connect installer - for ease select your Desktop when asked where you would like to place these files.
Once the download is finished, open the downloaded contents folder into a window.
For Mac users - To locate the CORRECT location to place your files, from within the Finder menu (across the top of your screen) select 'Go'.
With the Go 'drop-down' menu up on the screen hold down your 'alt' key on your keyboard to 'unhide' the Library folder.
Select the Library folder and double-click the 'Application Support' folder.
Where to place the Patches:
Now locate your 'Spectrasonics' folder and go to 'STEAM', 'Omnisphere', 'Settings Library'.
Here you will find a 'Patches' and a 'Multis' folder.
Double-click the 'Patches' folder.
From your desktop, double-click your downloaded folder to open it into a second window.
Place the two windows next to each other so you can see both windows - your 'Patches' folder and your new content folder.
Within the 'Patches' folder, create a new folder and name it after the developer of the library (ILIO, Audiority or The Unfinished). Now double-click this new folder to open it.
Now simply highlight the new patches folders from the second window and drag&drop them into your new folder.
Please note - the Audiority bundle (Trapshere library) also includes bonus Wav files. These are just for your use, Omnisphere does not need them. You can place them with your usual sound library files if you wish.
Please note - The Unfinished libraries contain 'Patches' presets and 'Multis' presets. Please ensure you place the PATCHES into this Patches folder and then go back to the 'Omnisphere' 'Settings Library' window to locate your 'Multis' folder. Then just create a new folder in here called 'The Unfinished' and drag&drop the additional MULTIS into this folder. This stage is not covered in the video.
Now the files are in the correct location. Open Omnisphere in your DAW / music host.
When the Omnisphere interface loads, please press the 'CHECK FOR UPDATES' button (top-left) and ensure all green lights are showing and that you have installed all of the needed updates. Without the latest update, some presets may not work correctly!
From the Patch Browser within Omnisphere, go to 'Directory' and select your new patches.

If the developer folder does not show, try refreshing the Omnisphere browser window (with the bottom-left circular arrow button).

Lives for gear
Dear All,
I have the 4 amazing plugins from Spectrasonics all updated to the latest versions. Also note that my Steam folder size on an iMac Pro running High Sierra 10.13.3 is equal to 175.72 GB Breakdown is: Keyscape: 77.49 GB Omnisphere: 62.58 GB (Bob Moog included) Trilian: 35.64 GB I am receiving a lot of errors eventhough I installed and re installed and re installed more than three times the software for 2 days !! I have the Keyscape USB Drives (A and B) which I constantly re installed, then UPDATED the Keyscape software, then Soundsource, then Patches, THEN Authorized it as per your instructions. As for Omnisphere, it was running fine until I updated it to the latest 2.5 version along with the soundsources and patches. I started receiving the following errors: Cannot load SoundSource 'PHR - Yang Ching 07' from Directory 'Core Library'. File PHR - Yang Ching 07.zmap may be missing or corrupted. Try refreshing the SoundSource Browser. The error above is on Omnisphere, I had my STEAM folder backed up before updating to 2.5 and it's when I updated to 2.5 on both my iMac pro and Laptop Macbook Pro that I started having this specific error Now for Keyscape, I am having the following error: Need to authorize product before using: ../LA Custom Rhodes Release Combo/AudioFiles/RR02 lacr 81 49 relm.wav On a lot of the patches available on both omnisphere and Keyscape running Keyscape library. I tried re installing as I said more than three times from my DISKS and by the way, every installation took around 8 hours to finish on a super fast iMac Pro ... is that normal ??? I am really very frustrated. I sent an email to the support team and I hope they can resolve my issue. Kindly advise. Best regards, Omnisphere 2 Try Refreshing Index In Browser Omnisphere 2
