    Biscuit is actually a word play.
    Oto is a french company, so that’s why it can hardly be understandable.
    It comes from "8 bits".. "bits 8"
    8 being pronounced "weet" in french.
    now you have it ! "bits weet"... biscuit !
    but i liked the other definition over here... cause it is crunchy ;)

    That is some of the most pleasing bit-crushing I've heard from a device.

    Inverting individual bits seems like a very clever idea. 👍

    I bought one of these towards the tail end of their production. Serial number 1920 out of about 2000. It has been the ONLY constant in my studio for years and I will never part with it. There is simply nothing that can impart the same character. I’ve found that it’s not that great on synths, but where it excels is on a nice analog drum machine. Like an analog rytm, Vermona or a similar unit. Turns a simple beat into something aggressive and completely unrecognizable. It is filth at its best. Perfect for industrial or can be used in a more subtle way to add low end and crunch. I don’t use the delay, pitch shifter or any of that. Just the core functions that this thing was made to do. It’s unfortunate that they didn’t make much money on these units because they were expensive to make, and the parts are no longer available in their supply chain. They at least left the world with 2000 killer units though.

    Had it for a couple of years, but could never fall in love with it. Has its purpose for sure, but I always found it hard to fit in and it was extremely expensive. Used prices go up way higher than those quoted in this video. Eventually sold it last year. Glad I did. I did get (and love) OTO's reverb Bam.

      I agree. It has a special sound to it and some cool tricks on board but i don't miss it.

    I love my OTO Biscuit... But I also must say that the UAD-2 Plugin is very good - I have both and I think the Plugin is 99% sounding as the hardware version. What do you think ? And I love Sonicstate... And you are guilty that I bought the OP-1 ;-) Keep up the good work !
