Hi all,

Looks like we have a bunch of questions for the next Q+A video. Wanted to check in to see if there were anymore. I think I can record this weekend.

Here's what we got so far:

Did you ever use sidechaining for something else than ducking the kick? Any ideas what else to do with it? (:

Hey, I think I remember you saying in the Discord that you “apply the OP-1 workflow to other devices”. If I do remember that correctly, could you explain that a bit? Especially for us who don't really know the OP-1 workflow that much. I know there's a limit to the tracks you can record on the tape, so it probably forces you to commit pretty regularly. Are there some sort of rules you follow while composing, independent from the gear's limitations?

What is your creative graveyard like? What things/tracks/sounds/ideas don't make it and why? How far along do things get before you completely abandon them (if you ever abandon anything)? What tools do you use to get something over the finish line or convince yourself to pursue something to its conclusion (regardless of whether or not you release it)?

How do you work with vocal samples. I struggle to add vocal samples to my songs, and I wondered your process when making songs with vocal chops.

Have I missed anything? Do you have a question? Leave a comment and let me know.

Thanks!

You might have other plans for this one, but reposting (& rephrasing) just in case… Units like the Deluge and OP-Z seem to be designed around mixing directly on the device. How do you manage that—plus normalizing, et cetera—both within individual tracks and across multiple tracks for an album or a live set?

Would you tell us three things you'd listen for when deciding if a song is good and three things (or more) which are a complete turnoff regarding production or style? (:

seconded. How do you 'make space' using hardware, it's easy to EQ the fuck out of a track on a DAW, but mangling synths you get clashes and mud and stuff (:
