Dude the thing cost £520, the point is it should have a line in
Ok I get it. The device is not what you would want it to be. (And if it’s something else I sincerely apologise) No need to be upset with me or other people participating in the discussion about ”But theoretically if you plug line there how you monitor the sound?”.
I wish you all the good. And hope you have inspired sessions making music in the way you like to have them. ?

Of course man, I mean you or this discussion no harm.
However I’m a realist and deal with fact, not fiction. And at this current time, even if TE released an update enabling sampling from line in, you are unable to monitor what you are recording. That is fact, and I am not being obtrusive or argumentative stating that.
You seem to be missing 2 important points
1- It is not being sold as a sampler so you cant complain it doesn’t sample no more than you can complain the OP-1 doesn’t sequence graphics!
2- I think you are wrong regarding monitoring, It has a trrs socket, you can plug in headphones and a mike and monitor what goes in through the mike so you would be able to monitor what you are recording (or listen to your voice with fx on as it does now)

Before posting on a thread trying to argue a point, I suggest you scroll up and read the original post to avoid making yourself look silly.
The op was asking for TE to implement sampling capability in a future update.
No bickering here. Just stating what it currently is and isn’t capable of, which may help people with little knowledge of the device to make an informed decision whether to part with their cash or not.
new feature request: gloriously colourful oled op-1 -> op-z library & transfer manager screen on the op-1 when they are both connected to each other by usb
Invertable, or phase shiftable LFO, preferably with a one-shot or half-one-shot mode… I miss filter envelopes!
More drastic parameter ranges for the synth engines. I don’t mind having only two controls, but at the moment some of the synth engines have one parameter that does almost nothing.
LFO/assignable envelope for the tape track.
Some kind of sample management/optimisation app. I know there’s the (third party) drum one, and the web app that someone here made, but it’d be nice to have a simple, all in one app that could convert samples and make them into drum/synth sampler patches.
Yes a sample app would be nice, sampling is a ball ache at the best of times, very time consuming as it is, so any thing that makes getting samples onto the OPZ easier wins my vote.
Also semi related, it would be nice if the OPZ drum samples worked in different octaves as they do on the OP1.
@darenger I’ve actually put a request in for octaves on the drum tracks too! Octave +/- doesn’t work on tracks 1-4 at all, which makes them a bit useless for sequencing other gear as you’re limited to 2 octaves.
ground loop is inherent to the USB itself when plugging in audio & usb to the same thing.
get a ground loop isolator and it should go away
they pretty cheap

I really want everything you suggest here, especially the changes to the LFOs. I too need filter envelopes!
On the more drastic synth front, I’d also be up for some synth engines that sacrifice the filter for four parameters. More west coast style synthesis. Something you could use with lots of parameter locks to create weird percussive sounds.
Another one I thought of just now: ability to parameter lock the synth engine/sample bank. I’d love to use it “nanoloop style” by cramming several different sounds into one track. I know it’s possible on the drum tracks (kinda) but it’d be great to have something for the synth tracks as well!
Oh! And actually show all of the parameters/features in the manual. I spent about 10 minutes yesterday trying to remember how to adjust the delay time, before finding it by accident

Yeah this too… most of the OP-1 engines didn’t need a filter, so having one or two without (if that’s even possible given the architecture) on the OP-Z would be great.
@docshermsticks I just found out how to change the delay time as well. and then there are different FX on the delay, right? is there any documentation on that?
@punji i don’t think it does…? @RisingSon what do u mean by different FX on the delay?
there is the filter that is on each track on each FX engine i believe
