    Everytime I want to open the GUI of Omnisphere AU (latest version, running in 32 bit mode) nothing happens. Omnisphere VST works great. Very strange. However, bug report is on the way.

    In general is there an advantage to either VST or AU? I am on a Macbook Pro.

    i can reproduce this, but only in 32 bit mode, in 64 bit it is running without problems... i will enter a bug entry...

    and the same problem is with Spectrasonics Trilian (32-bit mode, AU)

    In the meantime I got feedback for my bug report and the case has been closed. Explanation from NI: As 32 bit AU, Omnisphere has a Cocoa user interface. But Maschine 1.6 supports Cocoa in 64 bit mode only. That is the reason why we should use the VST version instead. I have not the technical background to understand this in detail, but I can easily live with the fact to use the VST version of Omnisphere :lol:
