Bad Gear - OverPriced-1

video upload by AudioPilz

"Welcome to Bad Gear, the show about the world’s most-hated audio tools. In light of recent events we are going to talk about OP-1 Field.

While other manufacturers either “pass on savings from process optimization” or relentlessly jack up prices once people are actually buying their music making toys, our favorite interior design company/copyright agency/nepo baby cult just flexed their monstrous marketing muscle and - did both at the same time.

Arp Of Darkness With Seventh Summoner in a small case ‪@FileTransferProtocol‬

video upload by FlatSix Modular

"Playing around with the small case, today. Just wanted to showcase what could be done with an Arp of Darkness and a Seventh Summoner, side by side. Patch notes:

Pam’s Pro clocking everything. Seventh Summoner sequencing and real-time transposing a Braids (pluck program) running through Data Bender, and a MultiVersio on the LoFi program. A couple of Disting MK4’s are running the bass drone on one with an LFO on the other that is modulating a Pittsburgh Modular filter. That’s being sequenced by an Ornament & Crime running the Phaserville Suite. The Arp Of Darkness is arpeggiator a Dust Of Time (swarm program) and that’s running through a Busy Circuits MFX on the 2051 Bit Corrupter program and a stereo delay on another Disting MK4. Finally, there’s an Erica Synths Pico drum running some rhythmic duties and an EP-133 with the main drums off to the side."

Minimal Ambient w/ norns shield, OP-1 field, wavestick | Hesitation 2025-06-01 by atnr

video upload by atnr

"A piece created with norns shield, ‪@teenageengineering‬ OP-1 field, and wavestick—ambient music built from evolving minimal phrases, gentle harmonies, and deep drones.

Norns Shield ( https://monome.org/docs/norns/shield/ ) : Runs awake (https://norns.community/awake); a step-sequenced phrase loops and is manipulated live from a monome grid.

OP-1 field: A harmony loop plays while additional lines are performed on its internal synth.

Wavestick: The wavetable is continuously swept, with ‪@strymon‬ NIGHTSKY opening and closing the filter to reshape the timbre."

Beat w/ TR-707, OP-1 field, NTS-1, Prophet-10 | Closed Door 2025-05-29 by atnr

video upload by atnr

"A piece created with the ‪@rolandglobal‬ TR-707, ‪@SequentialLLC‬ Prophet-10, ‪@MoogSynthesizers‬ Grandmother, ‪@teenageengineering‬ OP-1 field, and ‪@KORG_INC‬ NTS-1. Over a steady beat, two contrasting melodies appear in turn: one shaped by a looping envelope, the other a whistling tone rich in modulation.

Rhythm: The TR-707 is triggered from the DAW over MIDI, its output sent through ‪@ChaseBlissAudio‬ LOSSY for lo-fi processing.

Bass: Played on the Grandmother.

Chords: Performed on the Prophet-10.

Melodies:

NTS-1 runs an envelope generator in loop mode to create a modulating line.

OP-1 field delivers a whistle-like lead, modulated with the CWO effect."

"A track produced with the ‪@NovationTV‬ Novation Circuit, ‪@teenageengineering‬ OP-1 field, and OP-1—a lo-fi beat where modulated synth and e-piano tones ride over abstract rhythms.

Novation Circuit: The beat is built in the DAW and triggered via MIDI. Two synth parts and four drum parts generate both abstract textures and grooves; the output is passed through a ‪@ChaseBlissAudio‬ GENERATION LOSS MK II for tape coloration.

OP-1 field: Plays a modulated sampler patch.

OP-1: Supplies a modulated electric-piano sound, further pitch-shifted and looped with the ‪@ChaseBlissAudio‬ MOOD MK II.

Bass line: Performed on a ‪@MoogSynthesizers‬ Grandmother.

video upload by atnr

"A piece created with ‪@SONICWARE‬ LIVEN Ambient Ø and the ‪@teenageengineering‬ EP-133 K.O.II—scraping stone noises intertwine with distorted synth tones.

Ambient Ø: Plays a looping synth-pad while I add noise bursts and slow-attack sine waves. I also duplicate the recorded track one octave lower, filter it to leave only the lows, and use it to reinforce the bass.

EP-133 K.O.II: Loops a sample of stones being rubbed together, with Punch-In FX applied in real time."

From Moog to Teenage Engineering OP-XY: A Messenger-Inspired Jam

video upload by Lo-fi Pask

"Inspired by the announcement of the new Moog Messenger, I set out to craft a track using my Teenage Engineering OP-XY, built entirely from Moog synthesizer samples.
Analog soul meets digital precision — warm, vintage tones reimagined through a cutting-edge portable synth.

This entire piece was composed on a moving train, using the Obscura 76 sound pack — a collection packed with dark textures, retro character, and the unmistakable vibe of classic Moog gears.
The result is a cinematic, introspective soundscape that blends ambient music, experimental electronica, and the freedom of mobile music production.

🎧 Best experienced with headphones."

Piano Tape Loop ambient w/ norns shield, OP-1 field | Call at 2025-05-12 by atnr

video upload by atnr

"A piece created with a tape loop, Norns Shield, ‪@teenageengineering‬ OP-1 field, and Omnisphere. Piano recorded to tape drifts into haze as it is broken apart, while minimal piano and soft harmonies surface.

Tape loop: About one minute of piano was recorded to tape. During playback it runs through the BOUNDS delay on the Norns Shield and is further treated with reverb and filtering in ‪@strymon‬ NIGHTSKY.

OP-1 field: A simple harmony is recorded and looped.

Ableton Live: Adds a minimal piano phrase from software synths, feedback textures, and additional processing."
