I never thought I’d buy an instrument that I would have to study a manual, guide, and watch numerous video’s in order to understand how to use it.
I started with an Arturia Minibrute just to avoid menu diving and key combo functions.
And now I’m diving into the love it or hate it OT and I’m ecstatic! But I have had the intro to the Elektron world with a Digitakt for the last year to work up to it.
I really enjoy the way it’s helped me to get a more organized approach to what I want to compose.
And it’s fun thinking of how I’ll be able to start figuring out how to use the OT mkii to put the 60+gb of skeletal tracks I’ve noodled and improvised over the years to use finally and all in one bad ass, hands on instrument!
As I’ve been working toward getting the money together I just kept thinking of Pedro from Nepolian Dynamite saying in my head as I thought of the OT telling me ‘Purchase me, and I will make all of your musical dreams come true.’
