Release Notes

Omnisphere Software version 2.8.5c

Adds “Any” MIDI channel routing option to the MIDI Channel menus on the MIXER page. When “Any” is selected, MIDI Channels 1-16 are sent to the Part (aka MIDI “Omni Mode”)
Fixes issue where the plugin output could become muted after loading multiple DAW projects in a row. This fix was added specifically for Cantabile (a Windows-only Host), but the error is likely reproducible in other Hosts

Fixes issue where the “Modulate with Orb” option in the right-click contextual menu did not work
Fixes issue where the Patch dirty indicator (asterisk) could incorrectly disappear after using the UNDO command
Seismic Pump effect: Improves TRIGGER button behavior when MODE = “Triv. Inv” and LOOP is Off
Seismic Pump effect: Fixes issue with “Triv. Inv” mode where the envelopes were retriggered by incoming MIDI note events
Mac only: Fixes issue on macOS where folders/files in STEAM could not contain a backslash character
Standalone app: Fixes issue where the Flow Capture feature did not record Metronome Tempo changes into the MIDI file correctly
