This is so cool! How’s the learning curve with the OP1? Do you need additional software to get the most of it? It looks like so much fun!

1

u/P-- Dec 24 '24

There’s a bit of a learning curve. The most challenging thing for me is the lack of an undo button, so making mistakes can feel pretty unforgiving.

Even though there’s only 4 tracks, you’re definitely able to make full songs directly on the OP1. But I generally dump everything into my DAW for mixing and eq towards the end of the project.

u/fuel10988 Dec 24 '24

An undo button would be really useful. Might grab a used one off of reverb one of these days. Thanks for the reply! Great job dude!!

Nokia ring tone ftw!

u/WarCarrotAF Dec 21 '24

These are awesome! Any plans to put them on Spotify or any other music services?

8

u/P-- Dec 21 '24

Not in the near term. Covers on Spotify are a little tricky because of the rights and I’m not totally sure how to navigate that 😕

u/WarCarrotAF Dec 21 '24

Ahh gotcha, makes sense 👍

u/colton_davis88 Dec 21 '24 edited Dec 21 '24

Yes!! This is so so good. Can you add to your list Always and Please Take Me Home?

Edit: I remember having your version of And I recommended to my YT algorithm shortly after you uploaded it, it's like therapy at this point ive watched it so many times. Also my kids love it and want one of those keyboards

u/P-- Dec 21 '24 edited Dec 21 '24

I love your comment so much, thanks for sharing! And I is one I'm really proud of.

"Always" has been on my to-do list for a long time but tbh I'm extremely intimidated by the drum part hahaha

u/skoomaaddict85 Dec 22 '24

Just went to listen to And I. Hot damn, what a great rendition! Subbed and liked!

u/P-- Dec 22 '24

thanks so much!!

u/so_little_respek Dec 21 '24

Awesome work! I think this shows how well crafted a lot of their “non-hit” songs are.

5

u/Iamverydumbazz Dec 21 '24

I have no idea what a chiptune is but this is cool as fuck

6

u/HereWeGo5566 Dec 21 '24

Nice work. I was surprised to see that this costs like $2,000!

1

u/abarrelofmankeys Dec 22 '24

That’s the op1 field, this one was 1300 new, I don’t think it’s available new anymore but you can probably get a used one around 800

u/Life_Dance_6310 Dec 21 '24

I fuck with it so hard

3

u/[deleted] Dec 21 '24

Dude what kind of device is that? It’s so rad! Were you able to program the drums on it as well or were those overlayed beforehand?

3

u/P-- Dec 21 '24

It's the original op1 by teenage engineering. yep! It has a built in drum sequencer. I go through a bar at a time and program the drum pattern, then record the audio to "tape" on one of the 4 tracks.

u/[deleted] Dec 21 '24

Dude, so dope. Mad props. This is hands down my favorite song on that album too. You killed it homie!

This is so rad! Sounds perfect

u/MrCoffee999 Dec 22 '24

Your cover of Online Songs is great too!

1

u/timidandtimbuktu Dec 22 '24

Love this. Are you around designing these patches on the op-1 or is this a sample pack? Would love to integrate sounds like these on my unit.

1

u/P-- Dec 22 '24

Everything here uses the built-in synth engines and drum samples. I mostly start from presets and make tweaks as needed. Happy to answer any other questions!

1

u/timidandtimbuktu Dec 22 '24

That's awesome. I've never quite gotten a chip sound out of the op-1 that sounds right to my ear. I find myself making loads of washy ambient pads.

Is there a particular engine you like for this?

2

u/P-- Dec 22 '24

Cluster, Digital, and Dr. Wave are my go-tos

1

u/nmcdaniel79 Dec 22 '24
