Talking about gear, performing, and demoing the OP-1 F.

Is the OP-1 Field good enough for live performance? Yes but case specific.

Does the M8 sound as good as a Digitakt/Digitone combo? Yes and No. In some cases better and in some worse.

Updates on the Octatrack Performance template 2.0? Coming soon

Let's talk about it.

Great stuff! I noticed a little "JHS Pedals Little Black Amp Box attenuator" there. Are you using it to attenuate the hot DB-01 output before going into an Elektron input? Could it be used to tame eurorack levels as well?

ezbot

That’s exactly right! Yes you can use it with eurorack :)

Mark Buning

Perfect, thanks! I was looking for exactly such a solution :)

OP-1 content is questionable. It’s like promoting the techno Jesus, e-bro, crypto scammers of the hardware/synth world. Still you what you do in general though and will continue to support you for the foreseeable future. 😎

I appreciate the support :) I work for synthesizer shop so to me having any synthesizer (except Behringer due to the fact that they ostracized themselves) is a good idea. It’s all I do and the OP-1F is a ton of fun. Its a great tool for making videos since it can fill so many roles without cables. Yesterday it was my clock source and drum machine while I demonstrated the new Noise Engineering modules live at Patchwerks. I do understand the frustration people feel about the crazy price. I didn’t pay that price so I am only empathizing

Yeah, I do love the idea of the OP-1, I had one kept it for a year and I just couldn’t jive with the workflow. Sold it a month ago and instead got a Digitone. LOVE IT. when I heard they where coming out with the field I was happy for them continuing the line but then I heard about the price. I just can’t justify it when there are so many better options especially in that price range. I can see they’ve ironed out *some of the “issues” but over all I know I just can’t justify on more than simply the workflow front. But I will say if it wasn’t for you and your content I wouldn’t be so well informed on my music gear purchases so thank you for that seriously. Also your work is what ultimately lead me to fully dive into the world of elektron boxes and helped me find THE workflow that just works best for me. Thank you 🙏
