Hacking Omnisphere 3: User MULTIsamples are a Thing!

TLDR: You can make your own multisamples for Omnisphere 3. Why is this hidden? I don't know! But come along with me as we hack Omnisphere to play some of the world's greatest recorded sounds. (Also, my own "Varieties of Noise" sample library.) Grab your XML parser and get ready for a multi-samples-a-go-go episode of your favorite talky synthesizer content show!
