Thanks! Less is definitely more, I’ve learned. Cue out of the OT goes into the input of the DN, when I want to resample something through the DNs effects. DN out goes back into OT AB inputs. I’ve got an aux cable hooked up to the CD input of the OT for when I want to record guitar/op-1/op-z/po-32/vocals, so that is always changing.
I basically just record everything the OT and pull the audio files over to the computer for some finishing touches with izotope, no mixer needed.

Half points for basements?
I’m also a guitar player. I am curious about that linstrument. Can you set scales or modes?
You basically transpose the left hand fingering to the pads?
Anything subterraneum:)
Set up an OT altar out in the living room where I meditate, next to where my partner works on her art. She’s doing some projection mapping here. Fun times.

And that window is diagonal to the wall! We’re gonna need to see a floor plan. Somehow this building appears to have been constructed around an octatrack.

Lol - the shape of that room has been driving me nuts since @bemo posted the first pic from inside it!

Yes, the standard tuning is basically like an 8-stringed bass guitar where each row represents one string. You can configure the pads in a lot of ways, set scales by changing the lit notes or change the note offset between rows. Notes that are not in the scale will still be playable, but are not lit, which I think is great. You can also split the grid in a very flexible manner and play two instruments at the same time. The right split can even be set to strum mode, so you can fingerpick or strum the notes fingered in the left split, just like a guitar.

I bet the acoustics are amazing .Especially the Reverb 
Have you tried elevating it yet? Thinking about getting the same roadworx stand.
I can do with angled cables if not possible, but would be great if someone could confirm that the Octa actually fits with them.
Not yet as my main mixer/soundcard developed a fault and I had to send it in for repair. Barely used my gear since unfortunately. But depending on how high you set the stand I can see it being usable even with the Octa on top.
That’s no dog. That’s a rug!
where do i get a rug like that? i’m gonna get 5 or 6.

ok it’s not a real setup yet, for now the OT is paired with the Vermona drm1 and an a4 that I will soon replace with the Perfourmer (MD, arp and se1 I have to buy them). the final project is a bit larger but this is what will almost certainly become my favorite hobby. I am looking for advice from those who have more experience than me, the biggest doubt is the lack of a real poly synth (p4m can be a four voice poly but maybe something more is missing). what could be the missing timbre in a setup like this? from the percussion point of view I think I’m okay, from the fatness of the vermona to the freak of the MD. the Arp I was lucky enough to use a mk3 of the time for some time and I liked the tone very much. se1 I’ve never used it but from what I’ve heard it seems to me a moog with a few more functions and the possibility of changing filters is interesting.

I am curious of your choice of an RME. Do you mix with plugins? Or do you have a lot of outboard? I am stuck between going UAD for the DSP for mixing VS RMEs conversion. I am curious on how you mix your tracks as i find your setup very well thought out and appealing.
