Hi there,
Recently acquired a used OP-1. Speakers were working fine for a while, but now they sound tinny – although it really only seems like an issue with the drum sounds. Tried to do a scan to see if there are any effects or functions enabled that would lead to that. It’s kind of a tinny, filter-y, almost like chiptune-y quality to the sound. Hoping I don’t need a replacement speaker…
thoughts?
thanks!
Have you done a factory reset?
just to double-check that you haven’t turned on one of the effects on drum tracks or master?
I thought the speaker on my second hand OP-1 was damaged too but the issue turned out to be that the little speaker was being over-driven by the drive setting in the mixer.
Press mixer [
] next to [1] under the display then [4] and wind back DRIVE until the speaker stops farting out. However you may want to increase the drive again when not using the built in speaker; it’s just a reference tool really and can’t realistically handle the output OP-1 can deliver. Red Means Recording shows the mixer in use on his tape tutorial here; it still leaves me with questions though. - https://youtu.be/Z_8apw716HA?t=910
