I'm not going on holiday BECAUSE I have an OP-1! Couldn't afford both so I reckon a l made a good choice.Cheers, me too!Good investment!
I got it just for holiday and other days as well! I got the case and take it with ipad mini and LapAxe guitar everywhere I go. MobilLite g2 is great for backup and ipad mates well. Zoom h4 if I want guitar fx/mic/maybe a few more tracks…
Got it pretty much exclusively for mobile music-making. Will be a great master for my Volca sample, iPad and sound recorder.
I’ve taken mine a few times, including a cross country (USA) train trip. It was fun. Recorded a crappy little EP on that train ride and used the OP-1 in a small tabletop noise jam with some friends in Chicago. Also had fun playing it (especially with radio) as we rolled through the deserts of Utah. I even took the OP-1 with me when I played a Noise Fest in Florida last year - not as part of my stage set, but just as something to play with in hotels and airports.
I’m often taking it in my bag, even if I don’t use it, on weekends and holidays if it’s not so far
Always take it on hols. With the wifi hotspot Kingston thing and the iPhone so I can save all albums, tapes, drums and synths. No laptop involved, all battery powered. Smooooov
Wooohooo, I need that please, what do you use exactly ?

As Ghostly606 explained above, get a Kingston Mobilelite wireless G3 which is a wifi hotspot to manage file transfer from the OP-1 to your hotspot (or phone) memory. File transfer operation is managed from your smartphone. Great invention. No internet connexion, no laptop needed.
Going to Italy with field recorder + OP-1.
Maybe also some another tiny synth such as Volca or PO

So far I have played with my OP-1 only two evenings… Fire Emblem is way to addictive! >_>
Hmm this is quite disappointing… I finally got around to play with my OP-1 on holiday and it crashed? I haven’t used it much since I got it… Is this “normal”??? I am running the original OS it came with, not the leaked beta…

My OP-1 hasn’t crashed yet but it seems to not be a huge deal.
See minute 3:26

Nice video! Because of the way the OP-1 works you don’t lose much work when it crashes, but crashes like these would keep me from performing live with the OP-1…
I’m back home from holiday now, I didn’t use the OP-1 as much as I thought I would. I am really used to a midi sequencing kind of work flow and still need to get used to the OP-1 tape and find the OP-1 sequencers fiddly to work with… at the same time I do like how the OP-1 is different from all my other gear which leads to unique results
OP-1 is the holiday toy par excellence !
