It would be a dream addition!! I mean, they have basically all the code and function from the OP-1 tape machine. Just have to reformat that into a easy to use live looper on the Z! But it bet that it’s surely not as easy to do as I would like it to be

If you sync the OP-1 with the OP-Z, you can live loop into the OP-1 and feed it into the OP-Z’s tape track.

I like running the sequencer on the Z so I can sequence the Tape track while I play guitar into the Z. So it’s like having one of the hot new glitch pedals (Microcosm et al.) but you have more control. Then I record that into the OP-1.

I miss not having easy access to midi settings on the module track now, AFAICS the only way to change them is via the app or editing the midi config in storage mode.
To be honest I couldn’t really remember what the numbers would change and had to always use the app to refresh my memory.

hold SCREEN+TEMPO
activate midi perimeters menu.
or hold SCREEN+(triple click TEMPO)
will hold that perimeters menu.
in midi perimeters you can remap and mute using standard method
hold SCREEN+(triple click TEMPO)release+use first knob
modulate input volume.
in my demo im holding shift, but after experimenting i have realized that i dont have to hold shift for this

I am blanking big time here. Can someone tell me how to turn up the gain on the input of op-z? I know you hold one of the top buttons but for some reason my frustration at forgetting is keeping me from finding this info anywhere…
input volume lives now on track 14 (module)
the knobs filter, lfo, fx1,2, pan, and volume are controlled the same way as a regular instrument track (1-8)
but you can still adjust volume oldschool way by tilting op-z 90* and using “screen”->vol up and “tempo” ->vol down.
also in op-z app, in mixer interface, you can adjust input volume as well.

Yeah I was looking for the old school way. Thanks!
That’s the big question though: what’s the best way to sync them? I know I can do it with my Kenton midi usb host but, is there a simpler way?
the Z is a USB MIDI HOST so theres no need for extra gear
just the proper mini USB to USB C cable or adapter
I remember doing that a while ago and there was something about charging going on. I can’t remember- one of them was draining power from the other one. I’ll try it again with usb charging turned off on op-1 and see if I like it. I used to know all this but then I neglected all my TE stuff for like a year and now I don’t want to go back and study it all again. Thanks for the reminder. EDIT; one more thing, what’s best, op-z as master or op-1?
Well, I watched a video and did everything it said but, sync isn’t working for me. I have op-z sending clock out, have op-1 on sync. Nothing. Any help would be appreciated. Nevermind. I got it to work both ways but way too flakey for me. I had to replug the cable a couple of times and …nah, I’m good.
check your other midi settings maybe?
maybe u have some kind of midi echo madness going on
This works for the microphone input, but not for the headset (line).
I am able to boost that signal if I go to the sampling track and while in sample mode, I change the input gain by holding play and pressing the top track buttons, exactly as the guide says: OP-Z guide: sampling
But in this way I am unable to process the live audio input through filter, LFO and FX
Is there a way to do it which I am unaware of?
Anyone?
Hello friends,
First, thanks a lot @Shimmery.mp3 for that video of yours, I wasn’t even aware of that i/o track and it blew my mind. I was wondering if you guys could help me regarding a simple setup question.
Basically I’m using an arturia keyboard connected to the op-z through the usb port and I’d also like to monitor audio input at the same time (from my phone let’s say). The line out port is used for my headphones so it looks a bit like this. I was thinking of using a usb switch to be able to connect both the midi keyboard AND my phone. Has anyone of you tried it out ? Do you see any other alternative to achieve that setup ?
Thanks a lot in advance!
