Yeah all that & more can be done, oplab is super flexible!
I’d send clock from the OT then use the OP-1s crazy sequencers on the internal sounds which I’d then sample into the OT.
Of course you can also sequence the OT from the OP-1 & indeed sample that as well if you desire. OT of course can sequence the OP-1. Then you have the OP-1 Tape Recorder which will also sync via clock, I use little loops on there a lot & you can also run it at a different speed to the OT.
You can have each machine recording the other or use the OT as a synth by loading single cycle samples then play them from the OP-1 keyboard!
There’s a lot to explore with this combo, check out Datalines page on YT, he did quite a bit with the OP-1 & the Elektrons.
Congrats on the OT purchase, it’ll keep you busy for a while
Im trying to get this combo working. Havent tried since I got the Iconnect. How can the OT sequence the OP-1? It can sync to clock but thats it yeah? What about levels? I find the OP-1 output noisy as
@Dogma
With oplab you can choose mode 0 which is a single source to all destinations.
Select midi in & USB becomes a destination.
I sequence the OP-1 from Cirklon all time. Don’t use the OT midi sequencer but see no reason why it wouldn’t work, should be able to use Arps too I would have thought?
Re noise, only ever experienced it with the first few O/S & then only on headphones as it’s a line level output. This was fixed in an update tho, mine is pretty reasonable now!
Hi My first post and I am a newbie. I have 2 questions please. 1. what is the best way to connect OP1 to the octatrack. I have taken audio from line out to input A via a 3.5mm to 1/4 adapter with only TS but audio is low.
I understand the fun to start sampling and did my first one tonight following the macprovideo course which was great, however I have read that it is best to use professional samples for the best results. Does anyone have any input on this and what is the best sample site for this. Do you use the loops as they are or slice them all up.
thanks , this will be a long but enjoyable journey
yes i had dir to 127 and set the gain to full. on playback I managed to get the volume up with the master volume and its ok but it was hard to record as it was so low?
I must admit though i have only just started but loving the machine
Also don’t forget about the -12db attenuation on the input, you can go into AED edit and normalise the sample, you might then need to go to attributes and adjust gain there as needed.
If you are using a stereo 1/8" to mono 1/4" you may experience phase cancellation of L&R signals?
If so use 1/8" to two mono 1/4" and feed the OT stereo.
