Using the OP-Z after quit a long pause I realize how powerful its workflow is. There is no groovebox / sampler out there that brings me quicker results.

Hi Mr Wu. Im a new subscriber and fairly new to synths. Was wondering if you would still recommend the opz as a new sequencer/ groovebox now that EP 133 is out. I picked up a Nanobox Lemondrop last year and love it so now looking for a companion groove machine for it. Thanks! PS, size and low cost is important in my setup. Appreciate any tips/advice you may have to offer🙏

I still think the OP-Z sequencer is the best in many ways. It doesn’t have a good sampler, and the synth are just alright. But it’s super quick to work with and can control other gear really well. For that purpose I would recommend it! The EP-133 is way more fun when it comes to sampling. However it doesn’t have a synth built in…so it depends on what you are looking for :/

@@SONWU OK, so I went ahead and purchased one off of reverb and now super excited to learn and pair with my also tiny lemondrop. The OPZ is my very first groovebox, and although I still have no clue what I'm doing as yet as a native guitarist, I'm super stoked at the potential of learning more about sound design and creating more ambient orchestral type music solo....don't ask lol. So again, just wanted to thank you for inspiring me on this whole creative initiative. Like many others, I truly value your content and hope to see more of your ideas on the channel! Thanks Mr Wu!! ☺

Great as always, Mr. Wu. I got worried when the Octatrack started showing up on your channel as I do love the OP-Z, despite its obvious flaws. I also have a Minilogue XD and would love to see you work with both machines. Do you have the Oplab?

Hey! Yeah I was a bit more focussed on the Octa, as it takes some more time getting used to. But in future I want to use both. I don't have the OP-Lab anymore, as it kept popping out, but I still want to use the MIDI side of the OP-Z more with my other gear via USB. I don't have my XD anymore but got the OG now.

The workflow is unmatchable and you’ve really mastered it! Are you comfortable working without the screen? Trying to ditch the screen but it’s kinda like blindfolded when you’re used to it. Think it’s gonna speed up the workflow even more once I get better with reading the leds.

I noticed that the step lengths for the tracks are different from one another. Could you explain the reason for that? I new into the opz, but I followed your vid step by step and made a pretty dope beat! Keep up the great opz videos!
@SONWU
@SONWU 2 жыл бұрын
The reason is, that something like a melody-line for example often is longer than 16 steps. So I need to make the step length longer in order to fit it into one pattern. Other tracks like the snare track don't need to change over time, so I can keep the step length at 1. Hope this helps somewhat!

How do you record the sound into the video? Is it connected to a pc with a recording program and you fit it manually to the video or how? Hope you understand my question😊
@SONWU
@SONWU Жыл бұрын
Correct, I am using a audio interface to record my microphone and my OP-Z into my DAW (reaper). Then I align it with the video in Final Cut. Hope this helps!
