Another OP1 tutorial video- Let's explore D Box on the OP1. I've done some research and it seems that this is one of the most undocumented engines on the instrument. People just seem to be confused by it for some reason, which is a shame because it includes some of my favourite op1 drums.
OP1 drum lesson!
This video helps demystify the engine and gives you the option of taking your music into a more experimental realm- corky drum sounds are what it's all about.

So...? Which beat was your favourite at the end of the video? Here are your corresponding personality traits:
1) You have an upfront and outgoing personality- persuading less outgoing people to "join the party".
2) You have a deep appreciation for the finer, more subtle things in life. Even though you might not understand what they are, you're still attentive and open.
3) You have a peculiar, unusual taste in things. You naturally go "against the grain" not because you want to be different, but because you ARE just different naturally.
4) You lean more towards things that are more conventional and evidently you like dancing, maybe doing some drugs and partying to club/house music (lol).
5) You are bonkers.
6) Sort of similar to answer 3, you have a natural quirkiness about you- paired with you have a specific taste for gaming- perhaps a millennial who has deep love for NES/SNES?

For the sketch sequencer, delete everything (hold shift and twist blue) and then draw a line from the lower left to the upper right side (with a few peaks and valleys in between) and you’ll get a better idea of what it’s doing.
I’ll make sure to try it out. Thanks!
Awesome! Great D-box work around
Glad it’s helped!
Hey solid fan boy! Thorough as always...clear explanations .. good visuals... curve ball got me on 2 and 4 .. cheers to de mystifying the d box process .. thanks !
Thanks again for watching! 😀
Number 4 hits! Never got anywhere with D Box myself glad to see you making it work
It's my go to for OP1 drums now!
Beat 3 is the weirdest, but 4 is my favorite. Love your channel. More covers please!
Noted! And thank you! 🙂
thanks for the d-box de-mystification Liam! 2+4 were my fav beats. couldn’t settle on one lol
Haha fun!
Love the drums Liam!😱
Thank you!! 🙂
Hey thanks for the detail on the FX 👍 Nice guide to D Box, I don't use it much but this has inspired me. I vote for #4 !
Glad to help! Fuunnnnnn
Didn’t know you could do this on the OP-1. So rad!!!
It’s full of hidden gems like this
Just stumbled on your videos man, great stuff. I remember when they first released the sketch synth and I had the same reaction, "WTF".
I know right? It works well for bass lines in particular though
Epic! Thanks so much. Very clear. If I may ask if you can consider doing tutorials on the various sequencers, especially Finger for both Drums and Synth, those are a bit tricky for me and also kinda tedious to edit lol.
I actually have a series going into each sequencer on the OP1- creating a track with each! Heres the playlist:
th-cam.com/play/PLE5yApCgtOwA-v9yrLDWD2cQRPTi2TYYP.html
The OP-1 is literally the 80s &90s in one unit .. such fun to use . The synthesized modeling is very unique sounding
Yeah the work flow really is something else- absolutely love it
@@LiamKillen it doesn't have s massive plethora of FX .. never the less .. very nifty
Yeah it’s got some flaws for sure.
Yessss dude this is sick
I appreciate that! Cheers
I really dig the 2nd drums, but I felt like 4 was more for me. It almost has a Thom Yorke feeling to it. Kudos and thank you for showing how to design sounds. 🤙🏽🤙🏽
My pleasure! :-) Thanks for watching.
Liam Killen have you heard of this OP-1 manager? If so, would you do a video on the functions of this app? It was made to supposedly be able to use it on an iPad or iPhone.
@@moemoe05 Never heard of this! Somthing i'll look into, thanks!
#5 is the one I’m gonna play at my wedding!
Haha that’s great. An op wedding
1 and 5 are the best patterns
Thanks for watching OP1 fam!
Would love if you could do a video about how to do drops or pauses when constructing songs on the op1. I find it very difficult to do this if at all. This would make transitions so much better on this instrument and I feel like it’s a real challenge that hasn’t been covered yet. Overall I love my op1 and have really enjoyed these videos, they help a ton, thanks!
Glad it’s helping! Drops and pauses- i’m not 100% sure what you mean by that though.
Liam Killen so just speaking about song techniques on the op1. Like in techno/EDM there’s builds r n drops. In like lofi hip hop u see lots of cool pauses. I find it hard to program/create these on the op1 and it seems pretty typical of both genres but hard to execute on this wonderful machine. Not sure what techniques can be used to do these smoothly as it seems like the op1 generally excels in this type of music.
@@TheMachinesWon Often times i'll compose a loop or 2 on the op1 and then bounce that into my DAW- there you can really get into those sorts of techniques- it's just a lot easier to execute that way.
OP1 is a great tool to get magical ideas started but if you want to polish up and develop a full track, it just becomes easier to "dress it up" in a DAW. IMO.
Liam Killen that makes sense, appreciate ur feedback! 🤘🏼👊🏼
cheers
6 is toughhh
😏
4 was far too accurate a description lmaooo
😅😅😅
Question: Does the OP-Z do sample "transient slicing" just like the PO 33 KO? When the sampling feature was introduced a year ago, it only could slice in 12 evenly long slices. So you had to rework each slice, if you wanted "exact drums". The PO 33 sampler does slicing on the transients, so you get perfect drum slices. Sorry for this complicated explanation, but I really need to know this. thanks!
You can upload your own one shots into the opz. No need for splicing it up. Yeah PO’s are pretty solid for that reason.
Liam Killen thanks! but i don’t want to use a computer. i need the transient slicing option in the opz itself. so, is it implemented yet?
@@klausmono Not to my knowledge.
Liam Killen thanks. too bad.
@@klausmono cheers
Did you get any more insights on how to design „realistic“ drums? 😅
Like acoustic sounding drums? Not so much an option with d box lol
Liam Killen I mean I’m looking for sound design options to craft great kicks 🦵 snares 🥁 and stuff from scratch with dbox but it’s always a little flat or sounding super strange 🤣
Yeah d box isn’t the best for that! haha
Just purchased my op-1 and my dbox is empty do you know how to obtain the presets?
Shift 8 in drum mode and head to d box!
@@LiamKillen Thank God for you!!! You know any good places to get synth/drum presets from?
Op1.fun is a great place for that.
Little hint... If you press any keyboard key while you twist the orizzontal knobs in sketch sequence, you will solve the Mistery of the Misterious Sketch Sequencer...😉
The mystery of sketch goes way beyond that lol.
Scooooobyyyyyy!!!😱
Sketch got away with it, despite us metalling kids.
No one can catch sketch
@@gianlucacali2635 Truth
Have you ever tried Ableton?🤓
I actually own ableton but i've never gotten around to using it. I'm a Logic guy.
Thanks for demos-tifying this one. I can’t find much of it around either. Consider me for the modular giveaway, you made me a TE fan girl too 😘
That’s awesome! Glad to hear that. Winners will be announced tomorrow.
Liam Killen I bought an Used OP-1 Last Year because of your videos and I also got the system 400 with some Ikea/TE Speakers 🙃.
I found out the sequencer on the Modular 400 is quite limited. I think it can work better with the Modular 16 or 170. Thanks for your all your videos. They are useful and super entertaining during the lockdown
@@MeAlexSenna It also works really well with the OPZ (and OPlab).
@@LiamKillen I saw you doing that, I think the OPZ is still above my paygrade, I get lost without a screen, I'll keep learning the OP-1 for now
@@MeAlexSenna Yeah no shortage of greatness there! OP1 is a beast all around! Have fun :-)
Nice video!! Have you ever tried the arturia microfreak??
I have! Here’s my first impression of it 🙂
th-cam.com/video/-2Uq8vEAjLY/w-d-xo.html
@@LiamKillen your review is about the microlab, not the microfreak (arturia synth)
Whoops i misread that! Nothing on the microfreak yet
@@LiamKillen ohh thanks It would be dope seeing what you can cook with that synth!!
@@1314Ruben I need to get one first! Haha
Everything is drums if you play it like drums
Mmhmm
where's that snapshot link...?
This was filmed a while ago i'm not sure what yo're referring to.
@@LiamKillen you said you added a link to a video showing how snapshots work
The OP1 is so cool just too expensive
i own one and honestly, it’s worth every penny
It's worth it though!
@@cocoa_cowboy agreed
I feel you. TBH I thought it was expensive at the original price when I bought it. But now that they increased it to like $1300 USD, now THAT's crazy lol.
@@bwest6275 It's a lot- for sure.

You're a fucking machine❤️
I am one with the op1. In other words i’m op one.
@@LiamKillen 😂
lol
Pop pyłyoo

@@LiamKillen this appears to be a spazzy phone mishap. Disregard. 😄

(my choice too 😉)
I have some dumb questions about how to sample like this th-cam.com/video/0lPQjmNgV_Y/w-d-xo.html I try sample on synth mode but it can't make it like that video, anyway I also try on drum mode too but it still not right one 😂 can anyone help? lol
Hey here’s a video that I think will help:
th-cam.com/video/HafZGlpl6XE/w-d-xo.html
@@LiamKillen I watched it! but it seem doesn't work probably, I pretty sure that song was sample in synth mode or I just dumb and don't know what you explain 😂😂 I'm really apologise for this thing. But If you not mind can you please explain it one more time for me😂
Make sure you’re plugged into the right input (the red one) and hit the mic button on top right that should allow you to access line input to record a sample from another source
@@LiamKillen ohhh so sorry my question is I already sample it. But I want to make the sound on synth mode that same sound but different note with continue sound 😂 do you understand in my broken grammar
Like:
(C note) whos-
(B note) -around
What I try on my synth is like:
(C note) whosaround
(B note) whosaround
It like repeat it but I want to continue it in different note
Lol wish u understand 🙇♂️😂😂
@@kncs0003 Oh! That way you'd actally have to upload sounds onto the OP1 and create your own banks.
