A song I composed today, using the Teenage Engineering OP-Z and a Hyve synthesizer, record straight into a Korg Kaoss Pad 2S.
@beto Nice - pretty good trick. Good use of effects throughout, makes it feel like it's in a space - a bit of a quasi-chiptune space 😄
@Jazzaria thanks, I really appreciate the feedback!
I'm doing this for http://fiftyninety.fawmers.org/, I'm way behind but I know I can catch up using the OP-Z.
@beto Good goal, and fun piece of kit. I've made a track featuring it as well: https://jazzaria.bandcamp.com/track/shark-truce
@Jazzaria that was fun! Does the tempo ever change, or is it just an illusion of the shorter notes and the arpeggio?
@beto Thanks! And just an illusion :) it was my attempt to subvert the limitations of the OP-Z a bit, as I made it entirely on that. So the opening is just slow notes so you don't really notice the actual tempo and the swing.
I still need to spend more time with it to learn it better, but it's got a surprising amount of capability.
@Jazzaria it's an amazing machine, I've spent hundreds of hours playing with it and I still have so much to learn!
This is my favorite song I've made on the OP-Z, I always try to push it into more realistic and less video-gamey sounds: https://thefishermenandthepriestess.com/track/step-one
BTW, this is how I embedded and image in the MP3:
