Spectrasonics Releases New Omnisphere ‘Bob Moog Birthday’ Patches
To celebrate the anniversary of Bob Moog’s 78th birthday (today), Spectrasonics has released 78 brand new Omnisphere patches for the Bob Moog Tribute Library. With the addition of the new ‘birthday’ patches created by producer Eric Persing, the library now features over 800 stunning sounds for the Omnisphere, the company’s flagship synthesizer.
[You may have noticed, Google also marked the occasion with the Moog Google Doodle – a playable Google logo resembling a vintage Minimoog Model D synthesizer.]
The new Spectrasonics patches are a continuation of the tribute to honor the Moog legacy and support the ongoing work of the Bob Moog Foundation.
In 2011 Spectrasonics produced the Tribute library with contributions from many renowned synthesizer artists, including Hans Zimmer, The Crystal Method, Vince Clark, Danny Elfman, Jordan Rudess, Bernie Worrell, Morgan Page, and more. 100% of the proceeds from the “Bob Moog Tribute Library” go to benefit the Bob Moog Foundation.
According to Spectrasonics: “The Bob Moog Tribute Library’s 2.4GB of Soundsources were developed using highly creative processing techniques – often with exotic gear like rare Buchla Modulars, Jarre’s EMS Synthi AKS, Zimmer’s massive Modular Moog and Persing’s one of a kind OMG-1 Synthesizer. With so many different world-class artists contributing, the library is very rich in style and filled with inspiring, cutting edge sounds.”
The Bob Moog Tribute Library is available as a download from the Spectrasonics web store for $100; existing Tribute Library customers can download the new patches for free from the Omnisphere updates area.
