The user simply moves the Orb cursor with a mouse, a MIDI controller or in the case of an iPad, with fingers directly on the Orb itself. Best of all, the Orb automatically works with every patch a user has, there's no setup necessary. The innovative "Orb" feature of Omnisphere 1.5 is both a "remarkable" sound manipulation tool and an intuitive performance interface - it can be thought of as a 'circular controller.' Now with a single click of the mouse, the user can instantly customize the sound. At the centrer of the Granular Zoom interface is a new real-time 'Granular Visualizer' showing a colourful graphic model of the effect of parameter edits, all of which makes Omnisphere's complex Granular synthesis easier to understand and more fun to use. Omnisphere's Granular synthesis area has been made significantly more powerful by including new 'Speed' and 'Position' modes, which create dramatic polyphonic shifts through the audio and time spectrums. The Waveshaper now includes more extreme sound mangling capabilities with the new polyphonic "Crusher" and "Reducer" modules, which include 'Animation' and 'Force' parameters that can all be modulated. Harmonia can create extremely rich sounds by adding up to 10 oscillators per patch with new independent modulation possibilities on each oscillator. Omnisphere 1.5 includes new and expanded synthesis capabilities, with newly designed "zoom" interface views for the synthesizer's Harmonia, Waveshaper and Granular synthesis areas.
