FantasticleWorld - playing with the OP1

The Op-1 arrived a couple of days ago, I wanted to experiment a lot more, but I ended up getting caught making a track straight off the bat. Great fun! The voice was sampled from the internal radio.
Goods:
Easily playable, intuitive, great interface, recording, looping, fm radio for sampling, super fun and addictive, amazing tech squeezed in (that's why its so heavy I guess).

Not so good:
No midi clock sync, crashes a _TON_ when doing tape edits (although it boots back up with no loss, just takes time and funks up the workflow), faint but audible high pitch noises.

Verdict:
I love it!

Polyoptics: audioDoodles - MachineDrum, MonoMachine.

A silly beat, playing around on the MachineDrum, backup on the MonoMachine.

Polyoptics: Workshop - Machinedrum Sampling Ipad

I got a Machinedrum a few days ago and had a great time with the realtime sampling. Wicked machine!
Also used: Ipad and a Kaoss pad off screen.
Apps: Polychord, SSquares.

Polyoptics: miniSet worksession - ESX, Monomachine, Telemark, Ipad, Kaoss pads.

2 tracks squished together. Not a very smooth transition, but good practice!
I made a midi layout for this track on the ipad to help control a bunch of stuff without having to swap my hands around so much.

Polyoptics: tenderVittles? - Monomachine, ESX, Kaoss Quad, Telemark.

Having fun with machines. Monomachine sequencing ESX and Telemark.
The sequence that goes through the Telemark at the beginning is also going through the ESX, they play the same, then the ESX part has grain shifting/delay FX applied. That process was new for me.

Polyoptics: Telemark Tryout 2 - Ipad, Telemark, Monomachine, Electribe ESX, Korg Kaoss Quad + MiniKP

Monomachine sequencing the Telemark via note input from Soundprisms on the Ipad. Chords input from Soundprisms are saved as multi-notes on the monomachine and used in the arpeggiator.
