"OP-1 (Teenage Engineering) - Abelton Live - Basic setup

I'm using a Dell PC (running Windows XP) in this example.
Initially the OP-1 wasn't recognised. It took a connection through a powered USB hub
before I saw it in the system.

Check that Abelton can see it:
In Windows XP it is recognised as a "USB Audio Device"
Options/Properties/....Under midi ports click Track, Sync,remote.

In this demo I sample the OP-1 directly into an Abelton Audio channel.
It's triggered from the midi send channel.... playing Calvin Harris featuring Ne-Yo - "Let's Go".

"Make sure USB is connected.
To receive Midi you must be in OP-1 Mode.
Shift/Com then "Track" button 1

To send Midi enter CTRL mode.
Shift/Com then hit Track Button 2.

Playing notes using the keyboard.
First with a Moog VST.
and then with Abelton's Operator Synth.

To use the encoders to change synth parameters you need to enter midi setup mode in Abelton.

The last part of the video uses a basic Abelton Drum Kit.
