Using Omnisphere 2. 5 With Komplete Kontrol S61 Mk2
This NKS library contains NKS presets for ALL 400+ Keyscape keyboard presets including mapped controls specific to each model preset. This will allow full browsing of the Keyscape instrument from the keyboard along with access to all controls for each instrument directly from the keyboard.
Jan 10, 2019 Reaper Gets Unofficial MK2 Komplete Kontrol Integration reaper DAW users got a belated Christmas present yesterday when a ‘Reaper Control’ driver became available for MK2 users. Jamie Teh who is well known in our community for the NVDA screenreader and now works for Mozilla, made his Reaper Control.dll available for users to download.
All presets have been converted to NKS files which contains the preset sound information, tagging information and custom controls for every keyboard model. Keyscape Creative library for Omnisphere contains 20 pages of controls.
Komplete Kontrol Software v2.0+
Maschine Software 2.6+
Supports Komplete Keyboards (all versions)
Supports Maschine Hardware (all versions)
Works on PC / MAC
Supports 64 Bit
- Requires Spectrasonics Keyscape
- Requires Spectrasonics Omnisphere 2 (for Keyscape Creative library)
- There’s no way I’d want to use my hardware synths to control Omnisphere when my Kontrol S61 MK2 automatically pulls up and clearly labels all the parameters. I can drill down between categories of sounds and be able to see the names of all presets, listen to a short sound preview of the preset, and load it without even glancing at the computer.
- Now with the MK2 version of the KOMPLETE KONTROL S-Series, you'll have even greater control over your music. New in version 2 are dual high-resolution color screens for browsing, tweaking, mixing and more.
- Free updates for these instruments, available via the Service Center, will provide full integration with KOMPLETE KONTROL. This collection contains 16 premium instruments and effects, 5 Expansions sound packs, and more than 10,000 sounds for any genre. From cutting-edge synths to studio-quality effects, KOMPLETE 13 SELECT is the perfect introduction to pro-grade sound for production.

Jamie Teh who is well known in our community for the NVDA screenreader and now works for Mozilla, made his Reaper Control.dll available for users to download. Sep 21, 2018 The first way is to load them up within Komplete Kontrol. You set them up using functionality added in the Komplete Kontrol 1.5. You will find that some synths VSTS work instantly like this, like the Alchemy Player and Synthmaster because their 8 main controls are mapped to the same MIDI ccs as the first 8 knobs on your S61. Also I am using Komplete Kontrol S61 mk2 keyboard. And I checked with massive VST x64. KOMPLETE KONTROL 1.9.3. FL Sudio 12.5.1. Host VST workable situation. 1) MASCHINE2 MASSIVE doesn't work.
For Omnisphere users you will receive the Keyscape Creative preset browser pack.
This contains 1200+ presets for Omnisphere with full taggng and 20 pages of controller mappings.
These presets should tie in nicely with Omnisphere Preset Browsing for Komplete Kontrol.
NOTE: You must own Omnisphere v2.4 and Keyscape for both librarys to work. If you only own Keyscape you will only have access to the Keyscape library presets.
The Free Download Version contains a handful of presets to test how the NKS installation and compatibility will work. You can download and install this for free to test things out before purchasing the full NKS browser pack.

Install instructions are included with each download but you can also download instructions here:
Each keyboard/piano preset for the Keyscape VST has all macro controls mapped and tagged. Each preset differs and so too does the controller mapping:
Controls when loading a preset into Omnisphere you will see a generic set of controls used for Omnisphere factory presets. Use the Omnisphere versions for sound design and use the Keyscape version for dedicated control (and before asking, No I will not create a dedicated map for presets within Omnisphere)
Presets are tagged with full information. Artwork for Omnisphere is included with the Omnisphere 2 browser for Komplete Kontrol.
Because all parameters are saved with an NKS preset this means the keybed velocity is saved too. I have set a default velocity curve for the presets which will override your own preference. This is unavoidable but on page 1 you will find parameters to adjust the velocity curve and you can easily save presets as you go to save your own settings.
I am working on a possible method to deliver preset files that include velocity specific for the S88/S61 as optional installs if it is popular enough to justify. Let me know if this interests you.

There is no support or guarantee offered that these will suit your own application which is why a free version is offered to test with. If you are satisfied with the free version then the paid version offers the same features and includes all factory presets.

Here is the release of the Omnisphere 2 update for Push Browser.
This preset pack contains the presets for Omnisphere 2 only and can be downloaded and used to browse the newest presets in Omni2.
Compatibility
- Works in Live 9 Standard+ (Tested in 9.5)
- Supports VST Only (no AU Support)
- Works on PC/MAC
- Supports 32/64 Bit
- Supports Push MK1 + MK2
- Works in Omnisphere 2 Only
All features of the Omnisphere 1 presets are available, same mappings just updated instrument racks.
Please Note: the new instrument racks contain both the EQ8 and Glue Compressor so these need to be part of your Live installation for the presets to work (Live Intro does not contain these)
Updated Rack
Each preset has a slightly updated instrument rack
There is now a Glue Compressor at the end (in an OFF state but ready if needed) and the Macro knobs control basic EQ filter and Compressor. The VST Instrument has the same mapped controls ready for action.
A ReadMe file is included for more instruction. If you have the original preset pack you will know how it goes.
Download
Omnisphere 1 is completely free to all users with a hope that users who find the pack useful will donate.

Well, here it is. The complete Omnisphere Patch Browser for Push.
I would recommend for new users to maybe download the single template file to check it out and then tackle the whole pack when you are sure it is for you.
What Is This?
Push is fantastic but lacks the ability to browse presets in a VST instrument. The only way to even load a VST into Ableton via Push is to 'wrap' the VST in an Instrument Rack which can then be placed in the User library and loaded from Push. This is a fine solution that will allow you to load the VST but then you still have to use mouse/keyboard/ipad app to browse presets.
So, as many users have started to discover, if Push can load a VST in an Instrument rack then it is conceivable that if you created a rack for EVERY preset then you could basically browse the presets from Push.
Cached
How Does This Work?
Rather simply in terms of installation and usage. Basically Instrument racks can be created for each preset and stored in a folder scheme. When you go to Push you can browse through the folder scheme in the same way you can in your explorer. Find an instrument and load it. You can then add more, swap out with another and it is very quick. Installation is as simple as copying the folder full of instrument presets to your Live user folder.
What about Controlling the VST?
Got that pretty much covered. Before starting the wrapping process I first configured a 'default' rack for Omnisphere which contains about 80 MIDI mapped parameters for channel 1 (layers A/B) in Omnisphere. Push can directly access these parameters in banks of 8 so you have complete access to all these. They are all arranged and grouped logically and you will have access to controls in BOTH the A/B layer such as:
- Cutoff Res Keytrack
- Amp ADSR
- Filter ADSR
- Orb Controls
- Layer Vol Pan
- Waveshaper Bitcrusher
- Glide and Solo controls
- Mute layer
- Many more useful controls
It is not possible to map every control (such as FX) as all controls will need to be mappable in EVERY preset but I think it is very comprehensive.
The MACRO knobs in the rack are blank. This is for 2 reasons. The macro knobs do not update their value when switching presets so this is a real issue when creating racks. Secondly, you have access to the full mappings which is more useful than macros. The macros can be used for your own custom groupings.
How Did You Do This And What's Involved?
I use Live 9 and Windows 7 64bit. The preset files should work over MAC/PC if you know what you are doing. I own a LEGAL copy of Omnisphere and am using the 64bit version which is updated to the latest. Again, this should work just fine with the 32bit
The process is is not overly complicated for someone with some basic scripting knowledge. There are some great examples of what to do. For this project it was very time consuming due to the huge amount of presets to go through and the fact that manual intervention was needed for each four group. Apart from that though, the whole process was automatic.
I used a program for Windows called AutoITv3 which can basically be programmed to operate keyboard/mouse strokes but in a very powerful way. My script ties in direct with the Live main window and the VST plugin window and will step through each preset in Omnisphere 1 at a time, copy the preset name and then save the instrument rack with the VST name. It will run through a single Omnisphere category at a time and stop when it reaches the end. The folder structure is created and the presets are saved in the location and a nice addition is a TXT file is also created that lists all presets in that folder for additional reference.
Here are some stats on what was involved:
- Programming script was revised 8 times during the process to make it efficient and reliable
- Each preset took 5.8 seconds to be converted to an Instrument rack
- The whole process was redone 3 times due to missing parameters found in the Omnisphere default template (Grrrrr)
- About 90 solid script hours were needed to rip all the presets in categories.Using Omnisphere 2. 5 With Komplete Kontrol S61 Mk2 Videos
- There are roughly 14,000 preset files (of which about 8000 are unique presets
- Each preset file is about 64KB
- There is about 1GB of preset files
Sounds Full On and I am Interested.. How Much Sir?
Some users are offering VST wrapped presets as a business model rather than through desire. I had a drive to want to browse VST presets from Push so I am offering these FREE for any users and just asking for a donation if you feel it helps you.
Can I get the preset files changed or make a suggestion?
All suggestions welcome but here is the short of it.
To make a change to the way the presets have been constructed means re-ripping ALL presets. That is a Massive task that I simply wont do. If you are very serious about needing it done then I could offer to do it for a fee but for the effort it takes to set my PC running for days making presets it's really not worth my time for a few $$$. Presets were created for My use and offered for donations. If you don't pay, you don't have any say.
I am more willing to help other users do it for themselves as this will benefit the community more greatly than shelling out $$$ for each preset pack. Just express interest in doing it yourself and I will send you the script.
If you would like to buy me a license for any other VST I will create preset files in return but unless I purchase it, I wont be making presets. Any preset packs I DO make will always be Free to download.
If you would like to contribute and learn the scripting (Windows only.. MAC have to find their own solution) then I can upload my script and open a support thread to help people put together their own script. Like I said, it ain't that hard but does occupy your computer for a while.

Donations
You are under no obligation to pay for these patches but donations are greatly appreciated and will assist in me getting more plugins I can wrap.
Disclamer
This package is provided 'As Is'. There may be some small mistakes with some patches not being the correct ones or the odd spelling mistake and if you find these I will try and fix.
A lot of time and effort went into this so please do not re-post this on another site but rather link back to this thread.
Have fun!
