Waverunner — Retro Modern Synth Sounds

Waverunner is equipped with cinematic arps/BPM, rich pads, leads, basses, plucks, and a large assortment of poly synth patches recalling vintage analog synthesizers of the 80s and 90s. Just like a vintage synthesizer, the sounds of Waverunner can transcend genres and lend themselves to a wide variety of compositional applications. While well-suited for electronic film scoring, Waverunner truly shines where foreground classic synthesizers are a must, such as in LoFi, Synthwave, Retrowave, Downtempo and Chillwave, Vaporwave, Dream Pop, Synth Pop, Darkwave, Future Electro, and Cyberpunk.

New Patches Added!

As of December 1, 2023: Waverunner has been updated to include new sounds, ready to inspire you! If you own Waverunner, simply Log In to your account and download, then follow the enclosed instructions. Check out the new patches in the video below!

"I’ve tried a number of patch libraries where only a couple of sounds stand out as being particularly useful, but in the case of Waverunner, most of the patches had me stopping to play with them for a while, which is always a good sign."
Paul White, Sound on Sound

Every patch is designed to give you that analog sound you’re craving, using features that Omnisphere truly excels at: Including sampled analog synths from the Core Library, specially crafted DSP waveforms, and carefully selected filters, modulation, and effects. Additionally, each patch in Waverunner is programmed with special attention to fit like a glove in your mix.  

Every patch includes modulation wheel assignments for more expressive control. And with 125 patches included, Waverunner will give you enough inspirational flow to keep you riding that creative wave for hours.

  • 16 Tempo-locked Synth Sounds
  • 9 Synth Bells
  • 17 Synth Pads
  • 13 Synth Basses

"Very impressed with the most punchy and authentic analog sounding 80s synth patches yet for Omnisphere! Please keep them coming!" Henrik, Sweden
