I talk on here too much, my OT’s fired up and I’m about to jam…
But I have a lot I could say about the OT being quick or not… It’s not cut and dry…
It takes time to learn, and time to program, but the thing is you design your projects to then have all sorts of live tricks at your finger tips to easily and quickly employ… If you design a good project you can do all manner of things including extreme audio tricks instantly without any menu diving while performing…
I work in at least two modes. Theres programming mode where a I come up with ideas for the OT to do and plug away trigs and set parameters, build scenes, all that… But then there’s jam mode where I don’t think about any of that and simply jam away music using the ideas and things I’ve put into the OT. The more time I spend in programming mode, the more neat tricks and things can be easily done in jamming mode… Programming mode takes some time, but everything in jamming mode happens instantaneously, and that’s the important mode as when I finally get my act together, I will be performing in jamming mode…
