@@NovakTheEnjoyer dude, our musical journeys are so similar. I got into synthesis like 3 or 4 years ago, after being a guitar player for years and a piano player since childhood. What you said about coming to understand texture and the nature of sound is so spot on. I’m still in the tinkering phase and not really sure how to fit it together, (like you were describing) and not sure where it’s taking me, but if there were more hours in the day, I’d do more of all of it. Your videos are always a pleasure, bro. Thanks for being you.

@@NovakTheEnjoyer yeah dude! I wish I could get over the hump of tinkering and get to the production phase, but the tinkering is enough, even if it never goes further than that, to keep me sane and satisfied. After all, the universe is full of unappreciated creation, all products of divine tinkering, and if the Gods can create without attachment, aim, or expectations of applause, perhaps that’s the way. Either way, grateful to you for your contributions, and inspired to witness your path. Cheers homie.

super helpful words of insight. im a guitarist primarily and lots of what you say (and play) resonate with me. i currently have the strymon timeline and big sky which have been my guitar pedal board staples, but recently hooked them up to my op1f rig and love it, BUT im still wondering about the two hologram pedals lol. do you feel the hologram pedals offer something quite different from the two strymon pedals?
@NovakTheEnjoyer
4 ай бұрын
I haven’t tried the Strymon stuff, but I hear it’s amazing. I’ve noticed that the Big Sky seems to be a staple and I don’t think the Hologram reverbs, although really beautiful especially in the microcosm, can stand up to a stand alone reverb like that. That being said, the Hologram pedals have such a huge personality that it really doesn’t matter what you have in your bag, they’ll stand out in terms of sound, but on the same token, they’re designed in a way that is intuitive and so much fun to play with. I’ve only gone as far as pedal power with Strymon (because I have a colossal video idea in the works 😎)

Aye! Solid video. Ok, so I have the OP1f, the Microcosm, and the Chroma Console (+ a Mood MKII) My question, how are you routing the pedals. Is it as simple as taking the out of the OP1 - to the pedals, back into the OP1? Or are you going into a DAW?

@@mattsmour Can’t wait to try the reverse. I do route everything into the OP1F except for the OP1F itself. For that I’m trying to record into a clocked TX-6 and then bring it back to the OP1, but I don’t know how much longer I’m gonna be trying to do that, it’s just too convoluted. I’ll probably start using the dog again to get the OP field recorded through the holograms stuff. I really wish they could figure out the feedback loop situation. I’m not an engineer, but I know that the metronome doesn’t record itself to the track so I have to assume there’s a way to separate the signals. 🤷🏻♂️ idk. I’m really stoked that the filter is working out for you. I love mine. Now I have the CM15, but before that, the filter made jams possible for me.

@@NovakTheEnjoyer actually shit you can do this now with 1.5.7 firmware. you’ll need a ground loop isolator. op1f into tx6 via usb, tx6 in 12ch bidirectional mode, fx loop in tx6 using aux line out, main from tx6 into op1f line in, only 100% wet signal from fx loop track in tx6 is turned on via sliders, and op1f input mode set to line in. this will allow you to record your op1f internal synth sound (100% dry) with the 100% wet signal from your fx loop (via line in)
