It is the best piece of gear I own.
The Workflow is superb.
This is where TE excels the most.
But you have to be cautious - the products are very addicting - I bought the PO-12 initially.
Shortly after, all other Pocket Operators and the OP-1.
Worth every cent.
I love you TE :')
Thanks a lot for your support!
getting my PO-12 tomorrow!
Johannes Halm Hey, is there a way to increase the volume on op-1. I had one and it wasn't very loud in comparison to my other gear?
@@andrewmunsterman808 the white knob on the far left unless your talking about another thing
These 5-6min clips are jammed pack with no fluff! Love it
I’m not into pocket operators. My OP-1 changed everything for though. I LOVE this thing
I've been following UA-cam videos about op1 for about 6 months now and I have to say its evident that this little piece of music engineering is an actual masterpiece. I wonder if there's going to be an OP-2 with a bigger screen and 2 speakers and more connections and memory for recording in the near future. I definitely want one!
I have wanted one of these for so long. My wife has informed me that she’s getting me on as a graduation present. It’s about to get crazy. Just watching this instrument be used in inspiring to me...I can only imagine how much music will be made when it’s finally mine.
wrongsquirrel95 😁 I just picked one up yesterday ........it’s not as good as you think it will be .......it’s even better 👍👍👍
congratulations on graduating! way to go! enjoy and make sure to do a serenade for your wife!
Just ordered mine, I’m so excited!!
thanks for your support sebastian!

if only he wasnt a loser
mateoflol what have you done that makes you a winner?
@@Randuski do something different
mateoflol by being different you mean you are a whiny loser on UA-cam comments? K
I just ordered my OP-1 today, should be here in the next 4 or 5 days . . . SO EXCITED!
Started out with the PO-12 and just figured why bother with the rest of the PO series when this thing is AVAILABLE!!
was it worth it?
I just got this..I know I know I'm a little late to the game, 😒 but I'm having sooo much fun with it this thing is so much fun!!! well worth the 4 days of work it cost to pay for it 😁
Same
4 days? Bruh. try my whole check after 2 weeks/ 10 days, mine on the way tho
Just got mine today, all I can say is beats on the way!!!
Please add feature.. HOLD SHIFT press any key(keyboard) to move to next Bar while playback. Example press F Bar1 F# Bar 2, G Bar 3 etc.. this would be great for creating pattern based sequences/Music and complete this wonderful device :)
thanks for your suggestion. there is the 'hold shift and press < or > to cue up next loop section' function.
Hi I have a question. When I’m playing in recording mode my sound is lower than when I’m playing in synth or drum mode. I turned up the orange line up all the way in recording mode but it’s still not as loud. This is annoying because when I play freestyle on a beat, I play in synth mode because I run out of tracks, and then the instrument is louder than everything else. Is it supposed to be like that? Or maybe there’s something I can do.
hello kk. when you are in synth or drum mode, the sound is bypassing the track level settings. compare pressing synth then shift + mixer as opposed to tape then shift + mixer. play on the keyboard in both modes and note the white downwards arrow over the corresponding track in the signal path. to get the same volume make sure that the currently selected track has its mixer level setting set to 99. hope this helps!
2:53 double hit even though the key was touched once.
2 years later into the future and your comment is still relevant. Plagues every single OP-1 in existence. Double-triggering.
@@ShouriSeifuku yeah quite annoying
Hello TeenageEngineering, is it possible to rec audio in tape mode? For example I want to sing 🎤 with an attached mic and record it or overdub. Thanks
yes, absolutely.
Hi I don’t know if you still respond to this but Is there a way to synchronize my sounds to the tempo? Because right now I’m always messing up my rhythms by like milliseconds and then when I replay the beat the drums kinda are falling behind on beat and my synth is doing the same. I’m using tempo but I’m still kinda bad at it. Do I just need to get better? Or is there something that puts it on beat for you? Thank you
heya marky, sure thing. thank you for your question. some suggestions:
1) press tempo and turn green to access 'beat match'.
2) adjust the bpm to your liking (blue) and turn the metronome up (orange) if you need it.
3) now press tape to return to tape screen. notice the white beat markers. these indicate the first beats of each bar.
4) hold shift and press stop repeatedly. this is adding sub-divisions within each beat, from whole bars, 1/2 bars, 1/4 notes, 1/8th notes, and return.
5) hold shift and press < and > to jump between these markers.
now you can split, lift, drop and join takes with more precision. if you want to offset a take, place the play head over the take, hold shift and turn blue to slide the take back and forth (if there is silence before and after). this should hopefully help you to make sure your beats stay tight enough if needed.
teenage engineering thx. Also is the black square button the stop button because I hold shift and spam the button and no new white beat markers appear. Also I made a beat with 4 beats using the arrows and timed the loop perfectly, but when I start recording with the drums, once it reloops the drum makes a loud sound in the beginning , like a screech. I checked if I recorded it right and it sounds normal when I first play it but once it loops the first drum makes a screeching noise. Is there anyway to fix this? (Also what is beat match on tempo supposed to do?) sorry for all the questions I just started again lol
hello marky, better start a ticket with support to get help with your questions. support.teenage.engineering/hc/en-us/requests/new
i dont get it...is all recordings on the "tape" in one long continuous recording? if i made 3 songs i would have to go through the "tape" to find each one? also possible to bounce all tracks down to one and record on other 3 again, and repeat? if so how much recording time is possible?
I was thinking same thing
you can use the advanced lift technique, as well as sampling the tape machine back onto one track. peep the user manual online
seriously got to own one of these
So lets say I made a loop for a verse, moved along to an "empty" bit of tape and made a loop for chorus etc. Can I easily join the different regions so it will playback like a song?
yes you can. on the tape, you have four, parallel, six minute tracks at your disposal. you can lift a take from one track and place it on to another track, at whatever time you want. this way you can arrange and loop your takes into a song.
Is there a way to increase the volume on op-1. I had one and it wasn't very loud in comparison to my other gear?
No op1's speaker is probably its worst feature since its basically plugged in all the time. Or you can use the orange encoder on tape mode
when you screw up when overdubbing yojr drums and you dont have the dums looped somewhere is there a way to only lift the overdubbing and not the track under it?
I have tried playing live and recording on different tracks and I have always heard a hiccup when I try to switch from one track to another. Is there a way to avoid that? Thanks.
love the rewind bits
Hey Teenage Engineering, is there any way that you may add an UNDO on the OP1 on a next firmware ? That would be so perfect ! Thank you guys, love the OP1 tho. I'm having a blast on it.
How is an extremal mic with recording? It always comes out with lots of extra noise in the back ground..do you experience that same problem >?
it depends a lot on the mic and the s/n level fed to the OP-1. with a good mic preamp you get a better signal.
teenageengineering i can use a dynamic mic with a preamp? Or just a condenser? Also my op1 was attacked by my dog.. The buttons are chewed off, the screen led is not bright anymore:/ happy op1 happiness is gone..
you can use any mic with a preamp. all parts of OP-1 is replaceable, so if you contact support we can help you get it repaired. hope your dog is ok!
Great video! Is there a way to use the Op-1 looper exactly like a loop pedal? So for example once a loop is finished just press one buton and have it automatically played back for listening or overdubs (as opposed to press stop twice and then start to hear it back on the video).
I work as an accompanist for dance classes, I use an RC-505, a drum pad and a microphone, I would like if possible to reduce my setup to one piece of equipment.
I can't setup a tempo/click track, or spend time editing a loop once recorded, what I normally do is just start playing when the teachers counts me in, and then at some point I loop a couple bars and then keep overdubing on top.
Do you know if the Op-1 could work like that?
If someone has an idea of a piece of gear that could do all that in one (basically something like the Akai force, but with the ability to loop without a click track), I'd be eternally gratefull :) !!
Thank you!!
what happens if you mess up on an overdub? I heard you cannot redo ...
unlimited redo. no undo :)
teenageengineering what’s the difference? Thanks
Can raise, lower before recording.

You know. You guys should really get this cat a free OP-1.
nah, its channel doesn't have any content. cat need output first. we have a long-term perspective in everything we commit to. peace
@@teenageengineering Yeah, my second channel is called PewDiePie. You might heard of me. I can give a shoutout in exchange.😉
hm, rings a bell somewhere... :)
@@teenageengineering daenerys approuve
I get it - you pay in exposure, right?
Can i record with my acoustic guitar without cables through inbuilt mic or plugged in mic?
yes
So I can't copy something I already recorded and paste it ahead of the original take?
yes you can. there is no direct insert functionality but you can lift and drop to move takes to make room on the tape ahead.
why no quantized playing of kits directly into tape? Is there a way to record quantized, multi-bar drum patterns with both fingers (like every other sampler/sequencer). The sequencer modes are disappointing because either the bar length is limited, or you have to hold shift with one finger while recording hits. Am I missing something obvious?
Using Finger sequencer you can set up different variations of your patterns and record them by playing patterns with keyboard.
This isn't every other sampler.
What drum kit / patch is being used?
Hey Guys, have been looking to get some help with some issues I'm facing with the OP1. Was wondering if you could suggest what I could do? I haven't used the OP-1 in a while, but recently when I charged the OP-1 & started it, I have been facing issues I never experienced before.
In the Synth Mode: the blue encoder doesn't select synth-engines, however, all 4 encoders allow me to select the patches in the green list. On pressing the Tape Key, it is directly getting into the Erase Tap function, without having pressed down the Shift key. And when playing the synth, the arrow keys allow me to bend the note, without having to press the Shift key with it. But the arrow keys don't seem to change octaves anymore, it is almost as if the Shift key is pressed down constantly. A similar issue with the Help key, pressing it takes me directly into the tools setting instead of it indicating how much battery I have left. I did, however, do the Factory Reset, but the problems haven't gone away.
I'm sorry to be bugging you with these queries, but it's fairly difficult to get any help with the OP-1 in India. I came across your video and was wondering if you could suggest what I could do? Any kind of help or advice would be great. And thank you very much for the help in advance.
Update the firmware to reset and ensure all the settings are available.
but is there quantization?
Using different sequencers you can keep things on the grid
How can i stack different track ?
For exemple i have 4 record section and each one have their own track. How can i regroup/stack them in 1 track ?
Hello!
You can record all 4 tracks on the album by pressing the COM key. Then, record the album back into tape by pressing the red MIC button on the upper right corner and choosing resample (the ear symbol) as your input method. This allows you to record the album back on the tape, all merged into one track.
This can get a bit fiddly however to make sure you are on time with the tempo.
Alternatively, you can lift and drop the content of one of your tracks to have an empty one. Let’s assume you chose track 4 to be the empty one. Take your part on track 4 and move it somewhere safe, on an empty slot, somewhere else on the tape. You will get back to it later.
Like before, you can use the MIC button with the resample option to record tracks 1-3 on track 4, all merged into one. Make sure to mute the empty track you are using as a carrier (if it’s track 4, by using Shift+4 below the screen) to avoid feedback. This allows to keep perfect timing, also allows to merge all tracks while not destroying the original parts, because it essentially makes a copy.
This is perfect for building variation over a repeating part.
Since you wanted to merge 4 tracks, note that you can:
1 - Move the content you want to keep from track 4 to an empty, safe spot on the tape,
2 - Record track 1, 2 and 3 onto track 4 using the method above,
3 - Move that newly recorded, merged block onto a free slot on tape, in order to layer it alongside the original track 4 part mentioned in step 1 of this list,
4 - repeat the merging process by recording all the layered tracks onto a free one that you muted.
5 - You have track 1-4 merged, while keeping the originals separate in case you need to get back to them! And they are in time!!!
You can do that as many times as you want!
If you know you will need more than 4 tracks for the song you are working on, you can try to leave track 4 empty all the time. This way, whenever you need more tracks, you always have an empty track to record to, in order to merge and make some room for more layers.
I hope this can be helpful 🙂
Are there any REALLY basic videos as my OP-1 doesnt seem to work like this one??
hello tqc. the overview video will cover the basics and this tape video is next first step. what seems to be the problem with yours?
Hi I have a question. When I plug my headphones in, my music comes from both ears but as I go into tape mode some of the tracks (my 2,3, and 4 buttons) only come out of my right ear. It’s really confusing because my 1 button comes out of both ears but my 2, 3, and 4 tracks can’t hear out of the left ear. Is it glitch or is they’re something I can do. Please and thank you. 🙏
hm, maybe your tracks are panned to one side? press mixer, T1 and then hold shift. any panning here?
teenage engineering it worked thx!
È possibile eliminare la sovraincisione?
no, at the moment it is not.
Is that you, Red (Means Recording)??
Can I record audio from external audio source? If so, for how long?
***** Sure thing.
You can store the following recordings:
4 x 6 minutes mono tape tracks. (At normal speed/resolution. 4 x 24 minutes at lowest speed/resolution.)
2 x 6 minutes stereo album tracks.
@ 3:47, are you lifting the audio file and transposing it to the sequencer? What is the correct process for this? Every time I try to lift the audio, press shift+forward x4, press loop out, then press sequencer, the sequencer grid is blank. What am I doing wrong?
Greg Mabry ...ive been having the exact same problem...
He says that the beat was already prepared in the pattern sequencer. You have to create your own pattern.
Even in this video the double triggering of keys happen. 2:53
so you can not undo stuff you overdubbed on your track? or is this only the case after you hit the join button?
correct, no undo. if you have a good take on one track then overdub as much as you want or rather select a different track. join is for joining segments on the same track, not for joining different tracks together. for bouncing (joining) multiple tracks use the resample functionality.
teenageengineering so you can have multiple segments on one track that you can delete seperately before joining them together?
yes, you can use the 4 x 6 min tracks however you want. multiple segments or one long song etc. you can cut, paste, join and split takes as you wish.
teenageengineering thanks a lot... now im convinced. btw since im talking directly to the right people... i heard you guys have production problems... any idea on when the new ops are gonna hit the market?
all challenges in the past have been overcome and we will continue supplying OP-1:s.
So it's not an actual direct record to tape like the old 4 trackers?
there is no actual tape inside OP-1. instead it's a digital representation of a 4-tracker working just like it.
@@teenageengineering ok..so it's just for a retro aesthetic?
@@teenageengineering where can you buy one? I can't seem to find any online.🤔
here you go: teenage.engineering/store/op-1
@@jenrose4177 I pulled sixty metres of film tape out of mine like a magician
For some reason I like watching this.. I use FL studio
I really wish this thing was more affordable.
But can you make a whole full-length song with it? Not just some loop.
you can do whatever you want on the 4 x 6 minute tape tracks + the 2 x 6 minute live takes to the album teenage.engineering/guides/op-1/song-rendering-and-connectivity#13.1
Imagine a roli keybord in the op-1
