Teenage engineering op-1 PATCHES

op-1 Tutorials

From day one of owning my Teenage Engineering OP-1, I wanted to share what I learned about it, as I learned it. I have created an extensive library of tutorials and examples that can be found on my YouTube channel. Linked below are a handful of the more popular videos, with many more available on YouTube. - djthomaswhite

With NAMM 2012 coming I wanted to take inventory of the current OP-1 capabilities and to address some of the questions I have been getting from sharing my OP-1 videos here on YouTube. I take the "start from scratch" approach and show how to make a basic track loop.

I get more questions about my process and flow with samples than any other single topic regarding the OP-1. In this video I show an example of taking two random samples from cable radio and adjusting them into a VERY simple arrangement to show how my thoughts come together when using the OP-1; my favorite studio tool!

In this video I present an overview of how to import external samples into the OP-1 through the computer interface and Drum Kit creation app. Those samples are also shown to be manipulated and a rough arrangement is created with notes about using the OP-1 for remixing songs.

Here's a demo offered as a follow up to my "Making a Track" video on the Teenage Engineering OP-1. 5 years in, this Swedish music production machine is still tops in my book. In this video I show the process with narration included on how I go about making beats.

Here is Part Two of the 3-Part "Making a Remix" OP-1 video tutorial. In this example I plug the OP-1 into the computer to capture the audio instead of using iPhone and iPad microphones. Further ideas towards the composition are presented, mostly showcasing editing and arranging of sampled audio bits within the OP.

Teenage Engineering OP-1 Drums, Sampler Info & Pattern Sequencer

This is the third in what is becoming a series of sorts of "Making a Track" videos on the Teenage Engineering OP-1. In this video I start from scratch as always, open the Radio and start to find bits of sound to incorporate into the OP-1 audio environment.

Overview of making envelope controlled, filtered bass sounds in the OP-1 similar to many famous bass synths. This is a useful technique to know about as an OP-1 user. Square Wave (or sawtooth wave), Nitro Filter, Element LFO, ADSR and routing are described. Thanks for checking out another one of my videos.
