I guess what I was getting at is that 2 Omnisphere instances running 8 
instruments each is not very computationally different than just having 16 
single instrument Omnispheres.

Always good to have the capability, especially if it doesn't take a massive 
amount of effort to get working. I was just wondering if using multiple 
instrument in a single instance actually mattered with Omnisphere.

Well there's no way I could run 24 instances of omnisphere on the computer I 
have. 5 or 6 is about the most. With dimension or rapture or stineberg I never 
have trouble with anything bogging down or running out of memory. I think the 
omnisphere sounds are a bunch more megs. I'm still running xp pro. 
I haven't gone to windows 7 yet.
I guess with most projects I work on, I'm probably not going to use that much 
omnisphere. 2 or three instruments at the most. This is just having some fun. 
Although I can see myself doing some instrumental things where this could come 
in handy. Maybe I need to upgrade my computer but till I do, I think this is a 
pretty good thing for me.

Why do you worry about being able to use the synth in multichannel mode? 
Multichannel synths were kind of a concern back when we were all trying to do 
the softsynth thing on Pentium 4 based DAWs, but most single processor I7 
systems, which I think that you are using, have anywhere from 7 to 10 times as 
much power as those old rigs. The little CPU power that it might or might not 
save you is probably not worth the complexity of getting the synths setup in 
multichannel mode, assigning multiple audio outputs to multiple tracks, etc. 
Saves a bunch of time to just run one instance to one instrument.

I had to go get the update, and boy am I glad I did. What a job you've done 
here my friend. I love the catigory page up and down, I didn't know those 
exttra catigories were available,  and I never knew about the multi channel 
capability of the omnisphere. Now with one instance of the synth, I can have
8 instruments. Thank you Daren.
Very much. I'm having a lot of fun thanks to your efforts. I haven't asigned 
each channel track to an audio out put yet, but I think I can tell it to insert 
multiple tracks when I first insert the synth, then hopefully asigning each one 
of those tracks to a corresponding midi channel. If that doesn't work, I'll be 
asking you how but right now the volume controls on each midi track are 
sufficient for what I am doing. One more time I have to say what fun, I love it 
each time we get a little more accessibility with something that was already 
working fairly well. Maybe there are a number of things we can't do yet with 
this synth, but I'm excited about  what we can do  now.!
