First of all make sure your version of Omnisphere 2 is completely up to date and you have downloaded all relevant updates from the Spectrasonics website. I recommend saving or backing up your product(s) to a different location before installing them. Go here to your library location S: Spectrasonic Library STEAM Omnisphere Soundsources Factory Core Library and delete the zmap.index, Load Omnisphere again locate the library location and wait 10 min or fo for it to rebuild it's database.

Omnisphere Library find - Not a valid STEAM Folder nightmare! By Pitchfork » Tue Jan 20, 2015 11:03 am I know this may have been asked before but i am tearing my hair out here with the Omnisphere Installation!! The choose location dropdown will, by default, list the Steam folder. The above three methods will help you find the Steam folder on Windows 10. If you’re having trouble with the Steam app i.e., it won’t run, and the last two methods aren’t something you can use, it is possible that the Steam app isn’t installed on your system, or it.

The data files for Omnisphere are stored in your STEAM folder. When you update your patches or soundsources, you are updating files in your STEAM folder, which was created when you originally installed Omnisphere. Your STEAM folder is located inside your Spectrasonics folder. See the instructions below to find your Spectrasonics folder. Inside your Spectrasonics folder you'll find STEAM, which may be the STEAM folder, or it may be an alias (Mac) or Shortcut (Window) to the STEAM folder.


On Mac, the Spectrasonics folder is located here:

Macintosh HD/Users/<Your Username>/Library/Application Support/Spectrasonics Antares autotune 9 crack mac.

From Mac OS X 10.7 and higher, Apple have made the User - Library folder a hidden folder by default. This is to stop general Mac users fiddling with settings, however, music makers will require using this folder from time to time.

Please see the handy article below on how to unhide your User Library folder in Mac OS X 10.7 or higher

On Windows Vista and Windows 7, the Spectrasonics folder is located here:

Storing sound files on a secondary drive

If you are wanting to store your Omnisphere audio files on a second hard drive, you can put the Spectrasonics/STEAM folder onto your second drive. You will then need to create an alias or 'short cut' to this location on your main Mac or Windows drive. You can create an alias (Mac) or a short cut (Windows) by right-clicking (ctrl+click for Mac users) the STEAM folder and selecting it from the menu.

Once you have done this, you will then need to either locate or create the following folder on your main drive:

On Mac, the Spectrasonics folder needs to be created here:

Macintosh HD/Users/<Your Username>/Library/Application Support/Spectrasonics

On Windows Vista and Windows 7, the Spectrasonics folder needs to be located here:

C:ProgramDataSpectrasonics

On Windows XP, the Spectrasonics folder needs to be created here:
C:Documents And SettingsAll UsersApplication DataSpectrasonics

You will then need to move the STEAM alias folder (or the STEAM short cut folder) into the Spectrasonics folder on your main drive.

Note: On Mac, once you have placed the 'STEAM alias' folder on your main drive, you will need to rename it removing the word alias from the file, otherwise it will not work. You should now have a 'STEAM' folder on your main drive that is pointing to its actual location on your second drive.
Now when you close and re-launch your host application, Omnisphere should be pulling the audio files from off of the second hard drive.
