Welcome to a new start and spead the word!

I found the OP-1 on youtube, and instantly I was blown away with what it was capable of. I have been playing drums for 15years and guitar for 10, lots of different genres but never anything electronic so this is a first…so like I was saying, the OP-1 looked like something I could get into, it looks like so much fun! So I watched all the youtube videos of it, and just imagined how it would be, then I saw the price… it was a shocker…instead I got a PO-12 and learned it really fast, the pocket operator is soooo much fun…

anyways, all this took place in the space of a couple of months(me drooling over the OP-1) and when black friday came around I couldn’t resist. I found a nice 15% off coupon thanks to y’all on this site, now I’m waiting for it to arrive and it’s killing me!!! Sooo excited! Can’t wait.

Welcome to the club. I got mine on Tuesday. I dismissed it as an expensive toy when it came out, there not being any amazing videos to captivate me back then, but when I stumbled upon it on YouTube a few weeks ago, I was immediately hooked. I guess it helps I have seriously started composing since then and can see its potential from that point of view.

I hope you enjoy it. It is simply amazing, and quite intuitive to use too. I wouldn’t say I know everything about it yet – not by far – but I’ve learnt a lot in just a few days and feel I know my way around it now.

hi people !


sorry if my english isn’t that good, i’m french…
i bought an op1 some months ago, and have been lurking on this forum since that day.
i’ve learned so much things here, really helpful and nice people !

funny thing about the op1, when i bought it, i used it for about 1 week, had fun with it but left it gathering dust for some times, i hadn’t time and motivation for writing beats… didn’t want to sell it though. and some weeks ago, i gave it another try, and haven’t stop it yet :slight_smile: so funny and so powerful, despite the limitations… i’m in love with that thing, it will be for sure the last piece of gear i’ll keep (and i owned a lot of gear during the years, and i said this many times!).

anyway, thanks for your help, i’m still learning but i hope i’ll be able to help people too !

This site is brilliant!! I’ve only been a member for about 12hrs and an OP-1 owner for about a month. It seems like this and that go hand in hand
