Unless there’s overdubs of you shouting ‘this part is new OS!’ then I’ve no idea how I’d recognise what’s what?! Maybe some arpeggio stuff might be obvious. But OP is so broad for sounds with the synths and samples that I’m guessing I’ll have no idea. But I’ll give it a listen when I get home. Thanks. And yeah, spill some beeeeeeeeans! :wink:

…listen closely to something you won’t expect…

6

I don’t hear anything that screams ‘new os’ but good tunes dude.

7

'joke or not, you create nice tracks mate :slight_smile:

8

…take…a…listen! It’s detailed.

9

I caved in and listened. Kinda futile trying to extract any OS info. Decent tracks the couple I heard but I feel kinda bribed :wink:

OOOOOHHHHH I FINALLY GET IT!!! The new os comes with the complete 2001: A Space Odyssey film! Hopefully they didn’t get rid of Copter for that!! :wink:

11

I have no idea what you hid in there, but they’re good tracks. Remind me a bit of the early Sebadoh sound collages. Did you do those all in the OP-1?

12

Even the 2 month old tunes?


A couple tunes (specifically older ones) sound much more stereo than the usual OP-1 tune. This could be faked with clever recording on 2 tracks , or master FX use.
But I’ll speculate… perhaps we are getting stereo tracks in the recorder (?)

Oh please let that be the case!

I would happily go down to 3 minutes of tape to gain stereo in all 4 tracks.

esp. if the input was stereo too, instead of being summed to mono!

bright…warmer sounding…stereo

I would be happy with stereo and no more clicks! Mostly the clicks…

And I would sell my OP-1 as useless to me lol. Or maybe use it for sampling only and record it elsewhere, or just never upgrade the OS.

The one that stands out to me most is about a minute in on 'lab.

Really like the sound of that main synth, but it doesn’t sound like stuff I’ve made on the OP-1…

And I’m not sure what to make of the really peaky overdriven-sine-ish sounds on 'blocked and others, could be just FX work, but maybe something new?

Arp in 'scissors sounds like it could be new, or it could just be endless…

Would have to be an “optional” feature, of course. Just like how you get more time by reducing the tape speed.

…all in all… it’s going to be amazing!
