I've just been through the same issue (just had to clean up some space for the exact same reason !!)
If I may, I'll share what I do after years of having to deal with huge amounts of information (This is just my opinion, others may have a different method)
If reads to me that you do not have a backup drive so unless you have one, It is the most crucial thing to do right now, before installing or erasing anything else.
1. Try to make sure your MBP system drive is a 1TB SSD Drive.
2. First external backup drive should be at least twice the size of your system.
3. 2nd external Backup drive comes into play when you need to erase material from the system drive, the reason for having a 2nd backup drive is that each file you have should always exists on minimum of two separate hard drives.
BTW, This can work with any size system drive.
It is important to try and leave a minimum of 10% free storage on your drive ie. if your HD is 512GB than you should always have 50GB of free space.
If it's 256GB you need at least 25GB of free space at all times.
This stems from the view that a hard drive needs space to work and it needs the temporary free space to work efficiently otherwise your system will slow down quite severely and your drive may strain which can result in the ultimate nightmare of it failing (happened to me, not nice !)
There are a few methods of backing up but that's a different thread.
Backup drives are cheap ... get a USB 3.0 if you can or thunderbolt (you'll be able to work with it if it's a fast connection, not only backup).

I really wanted the 1TB SSD, knowing that the Omnisphere 2 is a 60gb install. Just couldn't swing it due to the 1TB being so much more expensive. Still, with most of my crap installed I have over 250gb left. /u/808DiNiro helped me so much with installing Omnisphere and Antares Autotune Live!! Couldn't have done it without him. Couldn't have done it without him. Super professional and cool dude who will make sure you get the plugins that you need downloaded and working in your DAW. 10/10 service and would highly recommend and vouch for him. Omnisphere 2.6 includes a stunning new “Hardware Library” with over 1,600 new patches created by Eric Persing and the renowned Spectrasonics Sound Development team. Each hardware profile has a corresponding set of sounds in the Hardware Library which were specially designed using that hardware synth as an Omnisphere controller.
