    I also fell in love with it from RUclips videos and bought it straight away. I’m probably going to get smacked down here but to be honest, I doubt I will ever make anything musical with this device. Perhaps the other mode I might, but I just get experimental, soundscape sounds with a beat behind it. I’m sure it can a absolutely do what I was originally after but I can get the result quicker with a combination of other generative devices and the reason rack.

    You can do a Rack with 4 Operators (native FM Synth) and built own drum machine but this m4l interface really inspires

    ableton always get the coolest plugins. seems like the perfect all in one drum synth. i don't think any other standalone drum synth comes close to it unless you buy at least 3 of the best ones but pay an extra 300 😂

    cool !! Yeah I`m kind agree with you about how building the composition via (real time) Jamming out in session view and recorded into arrangement view . Isn`t that the reason we`re all using Ableton in first place ?

    I haven't been able to create anything resembling what I would consider a good hi hat or cymbal or shaker sound. Just that little clinky sound you're getting in this video. It's OK, but it's not really adequate as an overall solution for techno. Am I missing something?

    • @Tony_Tyson
      @Tony_Tyson  9 месяцев назад

      No I've also found it hard to get good sounding noise percussion out of the Dust module. Gem and Mass are the ones I like best.

  • @publika6883
    @publika6883 Год назад +5

    I liked it but I have to admit that I bought it thinking it could export midi clips and then realized that you have to record audio, which I personally dislike. Still, a very creative device.

    • @vpnikolov
      @vpnikolov Год назад

      You can use the devices with all other sorts of MIDI sequencers. You can't export due to the complexity of the built-in sequencer.

    • @Tony_Tyson
      @Tony_Tyson  Год назад +2

      It’s called Mass and it’s a standalone version of part of the Opal drum synth. The full version is a larger device with multiple synth engines and sequencer tracks. Check out opal.fors.fm and the previous video on my channel.

  • @fabiandeleon4636
    @fabiandeleon4636 Год назад

    This is awesome, does Opal have separated audio outputs or how did you record audio in different tracks? Thanks!

    • @Tony_Tyson
      @Tony_Tyson  Год назад +1

      It does, you can send them to different audio tracks in Live. I did however simply resample the sounds from the full version before moving on to the standalone versions of the different synth engines

      It’s a Max for Live instrument so the company would have to recreate the plug-in in another programming language.. maybe they will if enough people show interest? Their website is fors.fm

      It's possible if they use RNBO to port it. Ask the dev, maybe he'll listen lol.

    how do you get the multi output on opal?

    • @Tony_Tyson
      @Tony_Tyson  Год назад

      Simply select the MIDI track with the full version of Opal on it under “Audio From” on one or more audio tracks. In the drop-down menu underneath the top one you will see that multiple pairs of outputs from Opal can be selected, corresponding to the different synth engines and the effect track.
