The Oxi E16 is the best MIDI controller I've owned. It makes the OP-XY so much more jammable 🎛️👌🏻

"I've been dabbling with MIDI controllers recently (as you will have seen if you've watched my recent stuff). Nothing has really hit the mark, until now. It's been a right pain in the ass to set up (the Mac app doesn't want to let me use it to configure settings) and have had to manually enter them on the device itself. But it's actually pretty easy once you know how. The OP-XY and Artemis have presets available to upload to import to it so you just need to know what you're doing and you're off. I've wanted a small but robust controller for ages and decided to give this a go. It's not cheap but it's impeccably made. The linking of encoders is amazing. There's no way you could perform a filter sweep on 2+ tracks on the OP-XY. This makes it easy peasy. Love it. Hope you enjoy!

"I had a crappy day at work and I saw the stars in the sky for the first time this evening, in who know's how long, so I was kinda inspired by a road trip into space.

Hope you enjoy the journey 😎

The fruit at the end of the branch is the sweetest

"I mean low hanging fruit. Which this track is. I use this kind of melody and synth sounds quite a bit. But do you know what, it sounds sweet. Well I hope you agree?"

One of those jams where it all just feels really nice

"Made this on the sofa last night and finished up today. I love this duality. Messing on the sofa while relaxing is a great way to make music.

Hope you enjoy
