Thanks for listening :)

Thanks!

Thanks dude!!

This is loop-based music. Try to train your ear with active listening to understand what it’s made of: you could for example identify the beginning and the end of a specific loop, and then deconstruct it by listing all the different layers that compose it. Once you’ll have done this for several loops, you’ll have a better idea of the generic ingredients. Then you could try to identify the techniques used to transition from one loop to another, and the global characteristics of the track. Remember to do this with several different artists as each one has its own style and techniques and you don’t wanna be a copycat. In the meantime, get your hands on a DAW (any of them is good nowadays, Ableton or Bitwig are more appropriate for live loop based music performance) and start learning it as much as you can. Manual is essential but learning by doing is the most dynamic way to progress: Get things done. Build something, finish it, learn from your mistakes and be proud of what you like in it, move on and start again. Those would be my 2 cents advices to start making music. Most important: remember to always have fun! It’s the journey that matters!

markfelixm thanks for listening!

subfifth recordings thank you! I've been watching all your Moog Grandmother vids :)

Ahhhh, no way! :) Looking forward to hearing more of your tunes!

DASA-Brainwash nope I never released any of them maybe one day!

They come off really easy you just have to pull on them. I replaced mine with Djtechtools chroma caps which feel a lot better

Thanks :)

Hey Liam congrats on the OP1 you're gonna love it! I imported a lot of sounds into the OP1 from my sample library. That's the beauty of the op1, you can turn any sound into a synth preset or create a drum kit with them. Thanks for watching the vid :)

Thanks dude! The op 1 is not synced to anything :)

90% of the sounds you are hearing are coming from the OP-1. The rest are coming from Ableton which is being triggered by the Akai LPD8. I am sending the audio from the Op-1 into Ableton where i am filtering, adding reverb, and delay. I plan on doing another video where I explain how everything is set up!

Calico great sound, listened 5/6 times. I love when bass triggers at 11:58 and 14:20 . You should explain how to get that deep bass sound, you can feel it from the belly; I am struggling to get them from my Op-1.Also, that wobbling sound starting on the third track and recurring in the last one is terrific. Would love to see the process explained.

For that particular part I used the OP-1s FM Synth. Pick the Big Bottom preset and then turn your blue knob all the way to the left and that should give you a nice thick sine bass. I then assigned the attack envelope to the LFO to create a side chain effect. Hope this helps :)

@@Calicolive thanks for the explanation, you used the Op-1 LFO tremolo trick?

Thank you the sets are a pain to make honestly. The Rytm is there as a background prop there haha it’s not being recorded just for looks

FX FX thank You! Here's my soundcloud soundcloud.com/itscalico

ok i check thanks

Audio is going from the OP-1 through my interface and into Ableton. The Akai is mapped to ableton and I am using it to send effects and trigger samples. Hope this helps! :)

@@Calicolive awesome! Thanks for replying, sounds awesome :)

Sote Vasquez just looking pretty haha it was not used for this set

Thanks for watching! With the Op-1 you get 4 tracks separate tracks and you record similar to using a 4 track tape machine. I am not familiar with the OP-Z so it is hard to compare. i know for sure the OP-1 does not send any bluetooth information. would you be able to specify which sound at the end you are referring to? ill try my best to explain

@@Calicolive ah but that sounds on the end thats georgeous is that synth engine also on the opZ?

@@Calicolive you know which one i men the wobbly panning sound of the dynthedizer :)

Jordan Crosby Hey Jordan! Are you referring to using the OP1 or making music in general?

I’d love to see you step by step a track. Love the tracks

Davide Bertola the Akai is being used for reverb, delay, filters, and triggering samples in Ableton

Austin Valdez hey Austin, every sound is coming from the op1

Calico thanks for the reply sir. love this mix!

Ceedeepee Vlogs thank you :)
