    Been eying the OXI, but isn’t it better to use a groovebox instead ? Roland MV-1, MPC, M+, Blackbox, Digitakt mk2, all do pretty well in being the sequencer of your setup. I personally use a lot the MV1 for its quick workflow or MPC when I look for more complex sequencing. Never tested Elektron but I’m sure it must be a very good tool.

    • @LiamKillen
      @LiamKillen День тому

      Those are great but IMO something like the Oxi one just brings more to the table as a sequencer - there’s so many more sequencer options to choose from and the options are just more complex

    @OliverMooney День тому

    The OP1f is irreplaceable to me, because while it can maybe do only 50% of what a dedicated sequencer/synth/sampler/mid controller/looper/fx pedal/audio interface could do, it can do 50% of _all_ of those devices in a tiny device that's still actually musically usable. Sometimes I just use it to hook up the speaker to a synth. Other times I use bluetooth to play a part into a DAW or try out a new soft synth on the iPad. It's always just _there_ and ready to go. It doesn't need power or even cables, just turn it on and get going. It's definitely very expensive, and definitely a small subset of what dedicated devices can do - but as a musical/music tech Swiss army knife there's nothing out there as good in as compact a form factor, that you can still play as an instrument. Shop around and you can get one for $300 less than RRP.

    Thanks for the great video. I now own a Yamaha Seqtrak and a Korg SP404 MK2 which is a great couple. I use the Seqtrak for creating beats and chords and the SP404 to record and mix them. I now desperately want an OP1 Field to have the most capable portable synth. I absolutely love the design and am very curious on the workflow. Saving up for that, but for now I like to emphasize that the Seqtrak is the most underrated workstation that exists. The thing is sooo powerful.

      @@LiamKillen You need to get the fact that you can play a synth and record it as a sample track (kind of like the tape tracks on OP1). This increases the number of parallel melody's a lot. You can also quite easily copy and paste a pattern of a track. This means you can make slight modifications in your 6 patterns per sound. The videos of the producers using it on the Yamaha UA-cam channel show what this thing can do. I at first used it with an external keyboard, but being able to "program" your chords in the 7 chord keys creates a lot of control on playing them. I think the song mode is a bit limited and that is where the SP404 comes in handy. Finally, it now is on it OG firmware (v1.1). I think future firmware upgrades will make this thing fly. I would encourage you to give it a try. The learning curve is a bit steep if it comes to key combinations (even when using your phone as a screen), but once you learn the most important key-combinations it is a great little instrument.

    I've been going back to a full daw setup but the oxi one is really catching my eye.

      Works great with a DAW too! Here’s a video: ua-cam.com/video/oCFRl52jzeE/v-deo.htmlsi=Hc--XrJq5FjeAB74

      @@LiamKillen yes this video triggered the idea ahah. Does it really work seemlessly with the daw? Recording the oxi one sequences as midi into it and arranging them in ableton live would be my use case. Thanks for the great videos anyway!

    hot take. KO2’s unlimited sequencer is better than all of those. 48 independent tracks up to 99 bars each, quantised or unequalised or mixture thereof. PROVE ME WRONG. 😂❤

      You don’t need that many tracks ! Lol The creative aspect of the Oxi one in terms of composition vs the EP-133- there’s really no comparison IMO

    Rytm mki has individual outs if you have a few splitter cables. the reasons to upgrade to mkii is for some extra knobs and buttons, much better pads and a MUCH better screen as well as a more comfortable lay-out. i still have a mki because i mostly use it to record simple loops into a sampler (currently using sp-404 mkii). the rytm circuits are great. i love the sound of it, especially the toms.

      I got the Digitone keys and it’s amazing probably the best fm synth ever made I’ve played dx5 dx7 mega fm opsix prophecy’s and some others I forgot but that mf is insane it’s sooooo deep sooooo clean nothing really touches it

    Midi sync with op1 field don't get me started but... After many battles with this topic with no luck then updated to the latest software; Set up ableton so it receives midi clock from op1 field then press play on op1 (I nearly fell of my chair). It was locked in ...

    Oxi one. I get that it's brilliant - I just don't know if I'd feel the same way without trying one. Interested in your further thoughts You're using it instead of the elektron sequencers or in tandem with? I personally think I'll probably go back to deluge after stupidly selling mine. The push 3s was not a solution. Yes it has many qualities that could be superior... But nah.

    • @LiamKillen

      I think Elektron sequencers are much more precise and integrated on a per step basis- but in terms of just a different creative approach, I find the Oxi one brings a lot to the table too. Combining them together? Well that’s just a whole other story that I’ll def be exploring in a future video!

      @@LiamKillen I'm waiting for that video!! In my case I'm using the Hapax, not the Oxo One, but the integration with elektron sequencers is the same question for me. You can use MIDI program change messages to change patterns on the syntakt, but I've not done more than that yet

    Here's a tip: 2:05 - You don't need to hold both. You can hold Record and just tap the number key to start recording. Please don't use the conserved energy for evil.
