Complete noob, advice needed on which PO to purchase

Guys, finally I have it!

It is AMAZING!
Much better than in my wildest dreams.
I am reading the manual and did the exercises.
I am going to a convention this weekend, so I will have no time, but as soon as I put something together I’ll send you the link.
Baby steps, first simple things, then I’ll further complicate things. I need to get my head around how the LFO’s and the FX work so that I understand which one to choose or how to get the effect I want.
The design is incredible, how it easily “teaches” you how to do things.
It is money well spent.

By the way, I must confess that I have no musical background. I am doing this for the pure love of music. There is nothing stopping me and who knows, I might learn actual proper musical concepts on the journey.

Fantastic! You could join the next battle and learn much faster to use it!

interested to see how you like the OP-1. I borrowed one before getting PO’s and I gotta say, it had too many functions and possibilities for my brain. love slightly restricted/limited devices, produces a different kind of creativity. that’s why I’m happier with the PO’s. do a cover first, that’s usually easier than starting with an original song.

Yes, that is the plan. I will try to follow some of the videos of people showing how they use it, for example sammysjams when he sort of replicates C.R.E.A.M. from Wu-Tang Clan using the sample from The Charmels.


On the other hand, I also want to just jam and see what comes out of it.
I did my first 2 hours the other night and got massively happy with just 10 seconds of music I produced with just one instrument I had synthesised.
The main thing is that I am learning how to use it and having fun at the same time.

It might be some time until my first song, but I will truly enjoy doing “exercises”. :slight_smile:
