OP-1 field

Thank you! :purple_heart:

Syntakt is the main clock and they are connected through USB. You can set the OP-1 to receive midi clock through Com. I couldn’t find a video/way to do this and wasn’t sure first if it’s possible, so when I tried and it worked I was overjoyed. :blush:

Also, I love using them together! Probably my favorite hardware duo ever. Syntakt is great to get something going with the sequencer and then add some magic dust with the OP-1, and they both sound very nice together.

Not as far as I know. I think the method you suggested is the only way.

interesting! if you do it the way around and have the op-1 field be the ā€˜master’, could you perhaps also use its built in keyboard to play the machines on syntakt? would be nice, no?

I haven’t tried that, but I’m fairly certain that it’s possible. :blush:

You can do this whichever one is driving the MIDI clock. I do this with my Digitone. Set the OP-1 to the Digitone’s auto channel, and it will play whichever track is selected in the DN, with full velocity support too.

You can also sequence the OP-1’s synths, drums, and samplers with from an Elektron machine.

You can put what you want to move within loop markers and then I believe it’s Shift+Blue knob to shift things around without lifting.

TE calls it ā€˜slide a take’ in the manual

Does anyone know of a place that offers op-1 field deals right now?

Guessing the best place is a music store or direct from TE

my op-1 just came back from service, after spending there a year and a half. they returned it broken, unable to find a replacement screen.

i wouldn’t buy stuff from TE after this.

someone? maybe there’s more…with 1.5

Crazy…

It’s probably the tape move with shift+blue encoder that ā€œnobodyā€ knows about.

Or that you can shift+lift from one tape, and shift-drop to another.

Can you elaborate?

Just thinking of spending the money on this.

So TE sent you back a still broken OP1 Field, saying the screen can’t be replaced as they can’t source one?

Is the quality that hit or miss as I have been reading ?

Your vendor or TE warranty might cover you for some compensation, possibly even refund

I think the person was likely referring to an original OP-1 (Probably a 1st gen one at that)
Outside of warranty. Not the field.

I’m skeptical that a product would stay at service for a year and a half, at all.

But I find it even more unlikely that this would be the outcome on a brand new product.

If it really was a year and a half and an OP-1F that means this person bought brand new right when they came out and immediately had an issue and sent to service. On a brand new product with no stock issues I find it extremely hard to believe that TE would hold onto it so long and send it back without a fix. It’s in stock everywhere if this was a QC issue that was their fault they would have either recommended a return with the retailer this person purchased from or replaced the unit entirely if purchased direct.

I’d love some more info on the scenario, 1.5yrs in service with no fix on a brand new product that has no stock issues seems extremely far fetched to me.

Yes very weird. Personally they offered me a replacement unit for 400€ while I didn’t even buy the field from them
