I was at a bit bored this morning and ended up reading up a bit more on Modular synths. Somehow i ended up buying a Black and Gold make Noise shared system.
Feeling a bit excited (and poor) though it won't be with me for a few weeks, hopefully before I go off on holidays.
Now I just have to work out how to fit it into my youtube channel kiddies videos :)
Just snagged the last OTO Biscuit from Big City Music. I waffled over the decision for weeks… but as soon as I saw it was the last one available, I could resist no longer. Pretty excited to try it out, both as an effect and as a synth!
@lyingdalai thanks for that i need to watch more OT-only live videos. I’d love a one-stop machine which has swing. The Op-1 has that but I find it limiting in terms of structure and transitions for live use, when jumping between loops with diff Bpm.
I watched Tarrekith’s live vid “two by three” (I think) and was impressed by the way he mixed loops seamlessly which fits his binairy tech style. Not sure how that would sound with more drumbreak sliced and sampling based music like mine.
@lefilou ,they seem like a good pair.Complimenting.
OT feels lacking in sidechain an cross modulation,with weirdness fx like freq shifters…enter the element lfo an CWO or amp env. Perfect. Plus no poly on ot samples.
But loads of post editing and sockets.
@HisMostDarxxxellent ,taking for granted for sure, nice to remind not to
(life thought too).
Paul…good source .On vinyl ,very nice. Will check, and great sentiment.
I still remember your suggestion for mastering very good …if I can get around to it.
Bought a Prophet '08. It’s a bit unfashionable at the moment, but a lot of analog power in a single device. Have been using the OP-1 as an effects box. Anyone have good spring reverb settings for ambient work?
#tumble2k spring?..
Turn it all up ,turns and mix ,but drop tone and damp. I like that for drum/percussive noise ,but pads then maybe a delay will be better.keeps it cleaner ,sounds better.Or less turns ,more blue/white with spring.
@pianobar certainly seems that way. Some really cool youtubes with that combo. I wonder how an OT would fit in that combo? Ill stop now giving myself seriously bad GAS
Op-1 and OT are like eating Swedish meatballs with lingonberry preserves @hindsite - just as IKEA intended >.> tag the el capistan off the cue outputs and back into a set of inputs and it must only be “dayum”
