- You also need to Patch both Omnisphere.dll files in Program Data. All 4.Dll's need to be patched or Omnisphere will not work! (You also need to do it again when you UPDATE Omnisphere) When done, open your DAW (I used FL Studio) in Admin mode, Load an instance of Omnisphere 2, and it will give you a Challenge Code.
- Can not load soundsource '.' In directory 'Core Library'. Try refreshing the index browser. Now, I have tried everything. After one reinstall, I got an issue that involved a.zmap, and I have no idea what that is or what happened to that. I have seen people on the net with that problem though, which is similar to mine.

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
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

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
Omnisphere 2 Cannot Load Soundsource From Directory Core Library
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.

I recently installed Omnisphere and whenever I try to run the updater it keeps giving me the error 'failed to open output file', I have tried following the advice on the Spectrasonics knowledge base (making sure permissions are set up correctly for the folders), but I am having no luck. I have also tried re-installing the STEAM library (and I am currently trying it for the third time as I type this).
I am using OS X Mavericks, and the STEAM folder is 44.2GB in size (in case it appears that something hasn't installed properly). Does anyone have any idea on something which could be done about this that I may have missed, I am at my wits end (have been trying to get this working since Thursday).
Not sure if it is of any relevance, but when I tried to run Omnisphere (in demo mode as they recommend not authorising until updating) some of the sounds load (they all appear in the browser) but I get the error 'Cannot load SoundSource 'Atmosphere Strings - Close a' in Directory 'Core Library'. Try refreshing index in Browser.'
I have tried emailing Spectrasonics support (and I am still awaiting a reply - granted it was thanksgiving when I emailed them), and even tried calling them on Friday (went straight through to answer machine - seeing as I am in the UK I left a message, but am not sure if they would call me back - considering I am in a completely different continent).
Sorry if this has been asked before (or is posted in the wrong forum), I tried searching the forums on here (and KVR) but nothing has come up.
Many thanks.
