This is huge (track merge). Can’t believe what a hassle it was to bounce tracks before and how easy it is now!

I love the terminal effect, as usual when it comes to TE it’s much more than a regular bitcrusher

I’m new to the op-1f, first update! This seems directly targeted at me / my drum process. Only issue: I’ve been holding shift when dropping tracks before the update so I’m gonna need an undo-merge update next 😅

I wish they made it where you could merge and still maintain each stem. That would eliminate the need for more tracks.

Great video as always :) Concise and covers it well.

How did you move that loop at 1;40?

@SONWU

8 ай бұрын

shift+3 creates a loop around the currently highlighted audio chunk

So I got this idea to build my drums separately. (Kick, Snare, Hat, Perc) Then bounce drop them into the track a little further on the tape. Then build a section for Chords, Melody, and Bass.

Indeed it is!

do you ever have a problem importing patches and then some AIFF files don't work and the op1 field says "op1 patch" over and over again?

I read and heard but never experienced myself that the old method of bouncing 4 tracks to a single one using the drum sampler reduces the quality of the sound after the merge. Is that true ? And do you think this is higher fidelity merge ? Thank you.

Maybe a silly question but how do you record the audio from OP1 Field for a KZread video? If I want to create instagram reels using my OP1 Field, do I record audio and video separately and then combine them in post? New to this so insight is appreciated :)

If you just want to use the OP-field into an iPhone, you can use a USB-C to lightning cable…I add it in post, as I usually also record my voice.

awesome! is there a way to record into tape a moving parameter from the Terminal? I know to do it using the vinyl and moving the knobs, but probably there is a better way 😅

@SONWU

If you use it on a synth, you can record all knob movements to tape…also using the ear, you can record the master to tape and move knobs as you please

I wonder if the Bit Crusher can get that PO33 sound on the samples.

@SONWU

8 ай бұрын

I don‘t know…I think the PO-33 has some sort of file compression going on. I don‘t know how easy it is to reproduce that. On top of that the KO doesn‘t really alias either.

Track merge is well appreciated. New effect is a bit meh. I feel like that kind of effect is already semi achievable. What I was really hoping for is a modern probability based sequencing option

Going to get into the new firmware after dinner, but the big question I have: does Lift and Merge also copy/resample master FX setting? (Oh please oh please)

No, it seems to bounce before the master section. so no fx, eq, or drive.

@SONWU

7 ай бұрын

Understandable…sorry. But then again, no one really NEEDS the field, if you know what I mean!

I feel like TE still hasn't figured out how to properly assign parameter values to the hardware. The physical hardware does not translate very well to the software parameter. For instance the MIX value seems to stay pretty much the same until you get to about 30% ... which happens with almost all of their filters. almost like from 40%-100% there is almost ZERO nuance.

@@SONWU which one are you referring to the sp or the op1 field?

I got an OP-1 about 7 years ago but stopped using it because it has such deep issues in its core workflow. Instead of helping me turn my ideas into fully produced songs, it quickly became a place where my song ideas went to die. I hoped the OP-1f would fix those core issues, but it didn't. It's still just a sketch pad, only now with stereo and a nicer reverb.

It is a device that doesn’t suit everyone’s workflow, but forces you to approach songs as you would on a classic 4-track recorder. I can understand the frustration, but it can be great, if you adjust to this method of working.

they really should have put a compressor or a proper eq in the fx instead of this shit which is sounding very harsh almost at all options when they put more editing/mixning functions this will be incredible

@SONWU

I think it’s a pretty good effect. Bitcrushing gets harsh, yes. But the sample rate reduction and filter are good…and when used measured the bitcrusher is also useable.

The track merger is treason to the original workflow. 😵‍💫🥲😉
