Dude I just got my op-1 12 hours ago and you literally just post few lessons for me. Big thanks buddy
Holy shit me too I got mine like two days ago
Same here, wtf
clearly we are not alone, what should we name our group?
haha i got mine 4 weeks ago and jermey is my man!! so what we've got here .. together almost over 7000 bucks.? hahah big up to TE for that business starategie pretending to stop the production so ppl buy the op like cupcakes for a gear looking like a toy.........damn! my wife absolutely not happy about it.
Got mine used a few days ago and this thing is a gift from God
Just by translating most of the capabilities of this audio instrument into visuals is a HUGE achievement. People like me that relies heavily in visuals to learn, understand and communicate have an instrument to make music. Without the visual aids people like me would have not dare to try and create music. This instrument is worth every dollar. And its the first time that such instrument relies heavily on visuals.
Man the amount of programming that was put into this is incredible. The price is explained almost solely based off of that.

Really the electronic device you could buy for the price of an ipone
The production cost is in the programming and coding, not in the hardware (it's not an analogue synth after all!). The components are "cheap as chips", but the manpower to code those components is not. Hence the high retail price..
I just got mine couple days ago. Spent about 8 hour reading the manual, going through sounds, tyring to get my way around. Last time I ever studied this hard is in college. Years ago,.
Subbed simply because you started to say "That are our-" then cut that off to say "So those be the OP-1 synth engines." That was beautiful. Your channel is dope!
Also I'm a new OP-1 user and am trying to figure the thing out and whether I want to make a spacey synth song or a lofi hip hop track, and how I might go about doing so. This series is very helpful in my endeavor. Cheers ♥
Hey Jeremy, I finally got an OP1, it’s been a long time since seeing your first OP1 videos but I finally did it…. These tutorials are awesome, thanks a million !
I really like your ingenious use of the splazzlefunt control. It seems to be the best you can get without having the glarbulator and fliffleplarf knobs, though if I were TE I would've at least had a bungzlap to tweak via midi (sort of like having the old gweezl slider on the plimptap which used to blob my nobtab)
Shmoopy Shaboopy why doesn’t this comment have more likes?
"Nobtab"...brilliant !
Watched a video of yours yesterday, ordered an op1 today, and get it tomorrow. I hate you.
Amazing tutorials dude ❤️
Hey Jeremy, i'm not sure if you know but when you hold the shift key and move the knobs for the loop points to adjust, the moving of the loop points is much more precise and slower.
Also shift with the arrow buttons when playing makes a nice pitch shifter
Wow, these videos are great!
It's hard finding "how to" videos for the op-1 and I'm happy that you uploaded these! The hardest thing about it is learning how to use it! Thanks so much ☺
I wish they would update the reverb!
Great video! I just made a banger track at the river on the OP-1
This is literally exactly what I needed. Recently bought an OP-1 and I have been craving an in depth guide to this exactly. Thanks Jeremy!
Mine comes on Friday and I cannot wait! Dude this is going to be so much fun
These are great. I've been struggling with understanding everything this machine can do, and this really clears a lot up.
Releasing all this content at once is wonderful and gracious of you! Thank you for doing this. I've been watching your vids for a little bit now, and you produce QUALITY content. I'll see you on Patreon, sir 👌
That Voltage patch you were doing was huge!
Love it - truly the “missing manual” !
Not only a great tutorial but also love the beautiful patches you're creating and playing around with! Only on video 2 but I'm loving this series!
I have Moog, Push2, Minilogue XD and Analog Rytm sitting on my table and it feels like I will not be able to wrap my head around them in years. This vid just made me feel that I NEED ONE OF THOSE. Darn you!
thank you for sharing your techniques and discussion. 👏🏼
the OP-1 really is a thing of immense beauty. so much sound design potential. it's like the iPhone of synths ❤️
wish I'd discovered it in 2011
I like how some of the DNA presets have gyroscopic control over the LFO
Fantastic resource, thanks for taking the time. You really know how to 'play' the OP-1 as an individual instrument.
Got one 4 days ago. This is everything! Doesn’t sound very toy like to me...
definitely not toy-like at all! Just got a pocket operator sub for my kid, and i had to buy one for myself. I can't believe how great they sound
@@DeathZeroTolerance the PO-12 kick is ridiculous considering the size of the thing
i fall in love with this thing. Time to save some money.
That phase synth arpeggio trick is super cool
The best tutorial on the net.
Thank you so much for all of your videos, but especially these OP-1 tutorials & tips!!! You inspired me to purchase an OP-1 and I've mostly just been figuring stuff out on my own based on a foundation of your other OP-1 videos and the user guide. These videos connected so many dots that I'd been missing. Sincerely appreciated!
Thanks for putting these videos together. You are one of the main reasons I decided to get one. Keep up the great work!
Thank you for making these videos. The manual is helpful, indeed, but seeing someone work through some of the more common features is extremely helpful to a newbie like me. Awesome stuff, and the rest of your channel seems pretty great as well. Absolutely subscribing!
learnt so much thanks!
I want to get one, but it has been released for 9 years... I hope they fix the problems of OP-1, add more tracks, then release OP-2
Thank you for making these videos
Thanks for putting this series together! I've had my OP-1 for years, but it is always interesting to see how other people use it and where they have discovered strengths in the machine. Cheers!
Another reason to bring it to my country by masses , love your op-1 videos ! Can’t get one 😥 here
This series is FANTASTIC!!!! Thank you !!!!
This is such an excellent series of demos. It’s the first time I’ve watched so much coverage of the OP1 … I’m still not sure if I’m any closer to buying one though. I love using the playful music production apps on iOS, many of which remind me of OP1, though I’m not sure if it brings enough to the table to justify such a hefty price.
wow very impressiv
i love op1 it's like BMO
I've had my OP-1 for seven years, and it's going strong. The battery is still great, and I've had no other issues. I'm curious as to whether you've had the same luck. Also, even for experienced users, these videos have some nice tips. The OP-1 is still my go-to when I have creative block.
Looking forward to the rest of this series! lovin it so far
I feel like you were on to something there at 9:32 :)
Thanks!
When TE sits down to design Op-2, I feel like they need to invite RMR in for some discussion. Your input would be valuable. Ever thought of partnering with some manufacturer to design your own take on a hardware DAW?
I believe the kids call it a collab?
That would be challenging
Bold of you to assume they're going to change anything, lmao. It's been over 10 years already since the OP-1 first came out
More good, clear content - nice 1, fella. There was a moment a couple years back when the price of the OP-1 was madly hiked, at which point I kinda dismissed it as just too expensive. But as I learn more about it's very deep and wide functionality (largely thru your vids) it's actually starting to look like decent bang for your buck... But twice the bang of an OP-Z? If you completely dismiss cost, which of the two do you naturally reach for? Which is more fun? Or perhaps better - which is more inspiring?
I have both, think it depends on how you want to play/how you learn. If you prefer in depth sequencing the OPZ is far better as far as sequencing is concerned and you have the ability to quickly delete and edit what you’ve written which the OP-1 doesn’t give you. If you’re a visual person the OP-1 is definitely going to give you visual feedback the OPZ doesn’t. It really depends what you want them for
Outro track??? I love it!
How do you add new synth like OPI VOX and OP-I 033020 ?
If anyone played the FEZ game, this sounds just like the soundtrack was made solely on the op-1
i love FEZ.. and the documentary is worth to watch... Indie Game: The Movie
@@swinxx386 just watched it last night and was almost in tears. Thanks for showing it to me :D
@@trmnl9117 glad you liked it. I found out about fez because of this movie. Fez is one of my all time favorite games.. and now i found the op-1.. and own this machine since yesterday. Great masterpice. Best wishes.
Skimming through to preview this... no secret ITER nods?
Gawsh dang I really want to get an op-1 now. I've been fiddling with music production recently and I've loved it. I'm broke af to get one of these though XD
отличный аппарат!!!
до сих пор актуален!
Great video series! It really makes me consider getting an OP-1 for travelling. It would be great to do a series on the Digitakt. Is there any reason why you let the OP-1 clip so much? It makes it a bit hard to really hear what the synth is doing.
If it’s clipping on the output then it’s clipping on the output. That’s how it’ll sound on recording
Thank you :)
Teenage engineering remind me of Elektron. Maybe they should collaborate?
When you say that the reverb is “Stereo on the tape” (strings synth, toward the end, spring reverb applied), what it means? Was that sound already recorded on the tape but you can still tweak the sound with the knobs?
Nah, I think that's a different thing he was talking about. Presumably he talks more about it in another video. I haven't seen all of these yet. But the String synth wasn't pre-recorded. He was just trying to say that the reverb is one of the only ways to create a sound in stereo. The only other way apparently being by manipulating the tape in some way.
I just bought an OP1 used. I noticed some of the patches in the synth engine have clear volume drop out in the upper register. Is that a function of the patch or a problem with my unit?
It's probably the patch
Not a perfect solution but some compression should help.
Omg yes! who else better to do this than you!
Great tutorial, very helpful. Thank you! Is it possible that you are clipping the output most of the time? I think there is some nasty distortion sometimes which is not part of the actual sound, or am I mistaken? I don't have an OP-1, but I am hearing this strange clipping and seeing the red led on the meter flashing very often ...
Hey pal, why your op 1 is so loud ?. i mean your master knob is on half but your level leds are hitting top, mine is so quiet whitout adding distorion on mixer
Can you use it as a sampler/looper?
I’ve noticed a ton of artifact noise when running the string synth through the sequencers. Maybe the transients are clipping? It seems to only happen live, as the noise doesn’t appear after you record it onto the tape. It’s the only thing that drives me crazy about the op-1. It gives so much, tho...
This is good info, thanks
Make sure you don’t have any compression on the master effects or eq
I want one so bad! But I figure I should learn basics first. But someday...
Yo have the DNA synth,i suppose i have to do the update on my op-1 ? Did'nt know it has this one !!!
Thnx a lot for those videos. Im a new OP-1 user and RMR follower 😶🌫️ I want ask you pls one question related the default Fx parameters. When i modify the different parameters of each Synth or Drum sounds, how i can turn back to the original values? Thnx in advance 👾
Hi I have question. I have recorded new syth sound on sample how can I now change for this sound engine.
Thank You.
I just got my op-1 and the green VU led’s rarely go past the 3rd green led. I noticed in this video yours are peaking in the red. Is there something wrong with mine? I did a factory reset and when I pick the same synths as you the output is always only 3 LEDs. I haven’t been able to get the output loud enough to ever hit the red peak led even with 4 tracks going.
*** I think I figured it out. Had to turn the drive up.
Thank you for the overview, would you say it's a synth you could comfortably play for any length of time with the form factor being the way it is?
Hi - I’m a complete beginner with stuff like this (apart from using a few Korg apps on my ipad). Interested in getting one of these, would it be possible to use it to
1) Record a short drone pattern in the Tape, and then loop / alter the pattern as it runs
2) Record sound from MacBook and record/loop/alter as above?
Thanks a lot!!
Great tutorial by the way!!
you cannot alter patterns once they are recorded
@@RedMeansRecording ok thanks for the quick response! Would you be able to run the loop and apply effects in real time?
I think is true what people say that this synth sounds digital i think people pay for the many possibilities of software that this synth can give you not so much for the sound
I just wish there was a way to better modulate a sampled waveform. Would add a ton of great analog sounds
AWMK101 i mean but it still sounds great and for an average listener is more than enough
I really love this device- mainly as a synth engine- I know it does so much more- but I'm looking for synth sounds that I can just turn to in one machine. At this price point, is there anything else with as many really nice sounding synths?
Synthstrom Deluge, I guess

Chillll
Alternative title: EDM ASMR
1:27 the THX theme.
this is an amazing instrument but it seems that mst of the time it feels so glitchy and electro it feels rather limited in the timbres it is able to create, not they they are not interesting. i just wish is had a more traditional synthesis engine maybe the knobs could be multi functional by going through pages to access the more normal synth settings, osc types..etc... I just cant feel that by making this as qwery and weird as they could they kinda put themselves in a corner as far as the range and diversity of its sounds. It kinda puts me off. I had one for a while and could not get into the work flow, lack of piano roll style sequencer and stuff... was a bit too far from a traditional studio/daw set up for me.. I wish I could just borrow one maybe rent it for a while to see if it would be worth having as a mobile production tool then take those sounds back to the pc daw of sampler at home.. just hard to part with 750 second hand and then not be so into it again.. these sort of videos def helping me to understand it better..
Will we ever see another firmware update. I’m feeling forgot aboot
we got one in may I think but it was only to fix some bugs I think
@@atsuma696 yeah I guess I’m wishfully hoping for some FX or a new engine. As far as I know the memory is seriously maxed even out of the box.
If J Dilla or Kraftwerk had gotten these things the world would have surely exploded
I dont even own an OP-1 and Im watching this. I just bought an MPD26 and I want to learn production
Nothing toylike about actually engineering the sounds on this thing.
"It's a nasty one ;)"
love a nasty bass
Dude, you're always clipping ! Everytime you clip you can hear harsh digital distortion. Don't you see the meter to the right ?
Bruh he’s not recording this as a song. Clipping is fine if you’re just messing around with sounds
Exactly my thoughts 😅
It all sounds clipped, over modulated to me.
