Dystopian

First test of the Beatsurfing app.  While creating the template I lost a bit of the musical sense along the way. As such, the track turned out rather dark and distorted for my taste. Firts impressions are that this is a really great app.

 The right side of the template (that goes unused) contains what became the start of a a new template. I will try again with a more simple arrangement, with the new template.

Wormhole

New setup test two. It lacks the extra elements that are more easily added while working on the op1alone. However the benefits of the compressor and more elaborate outboard fx are worthy editions.

Took apart all my gear from my home studio and boxed it. Started with a clean desk after 1 year of using only the op1 and being unsure of how to integrate it into my setup.
I dont have the perfect workflow yet but I now have access to some key features that I thought were lacking from my op1 only work. Including a compressor with sidechain input, a post filter, midi connectivity (ipad too), and possibility to you outboard drums from the machine drum.

I rebuilt my setup as follows:
Op1 -> compressor -> Octractrack AB input
Machinedrum MainOut -> Octracktrack CD input
Machinedrum E out -> compressor sidechain
Machinedrum F out -> compressor gate
Octatrack out -> Biscuit Filter
Biscuit out -> 2880 looper.

Everything runs through a patch bay for routing, most commonly, the 2880 output can be routed to the op1 line-in for further track editing.
