this is op-1f, tp-7, and CBA lossy . just some stretches to warm up for the year. i'm not gonna peter out like last time.
started with one of my early op-1f loops (got it on the big name-your-price deal last year). the op-1f feels so nice, excellent build quality and so many lil quality of life changes (in addition to the higher fi stereo sound). the latest firmware update fixes some graphical bugs i told them about in the dsynth/dbox screens.
op-1f loop resampled into the drum sampler, then pitched up an octave, then used the op1 sampler timestretch trick (@ me on discord if u want me to explain) to adjust the tempo some to what i wanted this week's tune to be.
looped that through Lossy into the TP-7 , just random knob twiddling for like 10min. then I listened back, dropping cue points at places of interest (really nice new tp7 feature).
i also did some piano noodling, also recorded into a lil TP-7 sesh, of some harmony stuff based on the root loop.
then I started the OP-1 jam. first thing was the snare, just layered a few internal hits and added some envelope-following Terminal crush. the bass drum is an 808-style hit run through the new fazer effect that fattens it up nicely. on the og-1, i used to use CWO pretty often to transform hihats (like making new samples on the fly). fazer can do similar for mid/low-end too.
along the way i sprinkled the lossy tp-7 sesh into the drum sampler, and also the tape directly sometimes. v fun.
i was looking forward to the switchup (wacky modulation) but i lost momentum. the electric-guitar-like sound was fun. the bass was v hard to dial in. not a sweet spot of the op-1.
then just speedtrash intro to hurt your ears.
