I have to admit, I wasn't aware that add-on libraries can be bought for Omnisphere, until recently, when I saw the thread here from regarding The Amara - this looks incredible, and completely changes my view of Omnisphere.

I'm guessing there isn't a free version of Omnisphere, as with Kontakt, which would allow me to access libraries like Amara is there? However, I'm not sure I would buy Omnisphere for the presets alone, based on what I'm hearing, so it's the equivalent of buying Kontakt so that I can run 3rd party libraries (not for the sounds within Kontakt itself), but in this case, it will cost 500 bucks for the privilege! I wish there was a way to get The Unfinished's sounds, but without having to buy Omnisphere. That's the reason I was so impressed with Amara for Omnisphere - the sounds are exactly what I was looking for (along with several other libraries from Unfinished). Unavoidable with a general library, and I guess most people buying Omnisphere are buying it for its sound design capabilities, not as a means to access samples.
I'm still a bit undecided: I watched a video here covering a lot of the Omnisphere presets, and as is of course the case with this, or any general purpose sound library, there are some sounds that are in line with what I'm looking for, and a LOT that is not.
