great video, this is 100% gonna help me a lot with the "cool but single pattern" syndrome, thanks a lot

@RDiefenbach 3 года назад

Haha you're welcome! Single pattern syndrome is my whole life :D... If you have a pattern you like then definitely just run with it and see where else it might develop. Hope it's helpful!

@taylorh79 3 года назад

Yeah this is the block I'm running into with the op-z, it feels more intuitive to develop ideas in a DAW where you can kind of see things linearly. Excited to watch!

@RDiefenbach 3 года назад

@@taylorh79 Interesting perspective with the 'linear' element. That's kind of how I view it in the OP-Z by progressing left to right across the patterns until I feel like the song is long or varied enough.

@taylorh79 3 года назад

@@RDiefenbach that's how I've started looking at it, when I first got it (a few weeks ago) I was doing a pattern in slot 1, then copying it to slot 2, and adding some things, then doing a new pattern (like a chorus) in pattern 6, doing the same thing there, so the song would be 1 2 5 2 6, etc. Definitely leaning more towards linear now, leaving an empty pattern between intro and verse, verse and chorus, where I can just so it's easier to navigate

By the way, in case you didn't know, you can save a snapshot of your project using P and +, and recall it by doing P and -. Seems it would be more efficient than disabling manual save. Furthermore, you can also disable manual save with P and Track, just in case you weren't aware! :D

@RDiefenbach 3 года назад

Great that you mention! I actually had it in my original 'script' notes but I thought it was already too long. I hope people read your comment and notice that's a great option as well!

@@RDiefenbach fo sho! Imo videos where I can learn more about the OP-Z are never too long haha ❤️

@MilesKvndra 3 года назад

Awesome knowledge drop once again, buddy! Seeing your workflow step by step is not only interesting for OP-Z users - I actually learned a lot! :)

@RDiefenbach 3 года назад

Cheers Miles, I was actually inspired to mention the pre-performance save states by the reminders in your Digitone video so the knowledge is making its way around :)

@casinomann 3 года назад

Yeehaw m'cowboy Do you have any other gear you sequence with your OP-Z?

@RDiefenbach 3 года назад

I have a Roland TB-3 I have tried sequencing via / THRU my Arturia Keystep as I don't have the OP-lab but it's a bit of a pain so I usually end up leaving it on the shelf. I've been looking at the Digitone for a long time as the perfect match to get but waiting for the right moment / deal. What about yourself?

@casinomann 3 года назад

@@RDiefenbach I actually just got the oplab, as my buddy and I often jam out and we can finally use ir as a reliable sequencer. I myself only use it with my Mikrokorg, both sequencing it and using it as a controller for the OP-Z. I'm really looking for some new small gear, so that's what I thought to ask haha Pipe dream is 0-Coast, but I'm leaning more toward getting a Volca, Modal Craft/Skulpt or similar (Bastl Kastle i.e) If you have experience with them/any other tips, I'd gladly listen! :D

@RDiefenbach 3 года назад

@@casinomann Roland Boutique series is a popular choice I think for portable but powerful options! 0-coast for sure. I'm hoping to make an OP-Z and TB-3 video sometime soon but I don't know what to make with them - I guess acid house is the natural choice but it's not my fav genre - but perhaps that's all the more reason to take on a challenge!

@psysword 2 года назад

At this point I'm mashing all the buttons. I guess I'll do manual save first
