That's OK, not everything needs to be for you.polardark wrote:Purely from my personal needs, I don't see the point
that's such a crazy argument.. I never look over there.

Somebody mentioned that you might as well go out and buy a 61 key workstation like a korg TR and just compare them.
Spot on. I think the portability of the thing combined with the functionality it provides is something worth paying for. Don't forget all the work that's gone into it too. 800 Euros isn't bad at all really. It's certainly more than a toy/gimmick.Stab Frenzy wrote:I think a lot of people who think it's too expensive have some idea in their head that they're paying by the kilo for synths or something

I stumbled upon this thread again... did an eyeroll... and then read more. Out of irritation more than curiosity, I watched a few OP-1 videos.
I have to say that I am surprised by the functionality, and delighted by the interface. I couldn't believe that something so dorky and tiny could actually be useful, and I almost broke my optic nerves rolling my eyes at everyone talking about it being a self-contained studio... but damn. I think I was wrong. This is a very interesting tool, and I'm admittedly intrigued by it. I think the interface is really charming. The sample manipulation stuff is absolutely FANTASTIC.
Yeah, thanks a lot, j**k. Thanks for making me like something that I initially thought was lame. Of course, my liking it doesn't mean anything because I've never used one, right? You can only dislike or like something if you've used it.
P.S. f**k that keyboard, though. That's bullshit.
P.P.S. I know this post will be forgotten, because it's impossible that I would like anything that wasn't analog.
