Can you make your own dubstep with it? like the bass drops and all that stuff?like for example "Skrillex" style

[alexanderbergstrom]

@000Z9A Yeah! You have a tape function that is very useful for those kinds of things :)

[beyondrupture]

nothing like a loud sound to fool us :P

but I reckon that this is a tiny lil beast, for those willing to buy and discover it! unfortunately its sounds are nothing like what I need no take my project onto a live scenario!

[alexanderbergstrom]

@beyondrupture Apparently the OP-1 is an acquired taste. People who have it love it while others, for some reason, get provoked by it. It's absolutely got its own specific sound, and I guess it doesn't fit your needs.

[LedgerLines]

hmm...I've heard similar sounding tracks made with free synths on iphone/itouch. It's a solid track you made bud, but let's be honest that thing is just not worth the $800 price tag...I paid that much for my Juni Gi...

[alexanderbergstrom]

@LedgerLines Thanks!

I find it hard to compare the OP-1 to any other synthesizer. It is totally different from anything else I've ever tried. If you want "normal" sounds (Jupiters, Mono/Poly, Prophet etc.) this synth is the wrong way to go. However, if you're looking for a creative tool that is inspiring and intuitive, and most importantly, doesn't sound like anything else... It's awesome!

$800 is a lot of money, though.

@branasaur the wobble bass just makes people go crazy in a club. but there is still a style of music called dubstep or two step, which isn't characterized by the wobble bass



[branasaur]

@000Z9A hahaha, dubstep is really "two step." If you actually cared about making dubstep you would know by now that it is not just that wobbly bass that makes dubstep; it's the time signature. the classic wobbly bass sound you want so bad is more suited to what i call "club step" check out BURIAL and you will hear real deal dubstep.

@GreeenGiantt ye cuz I needed to know fast :p

[GreeenGiantt]

@000Z9A  hahah you have commented on like very video saying that!

[dizzydonor]

If you want to make dubstep like skrillex, you should throw all your musical instruments in the charity bin and move to a country with no electricity.

[cocatoo555]

@000Z9A If you want to make dubstep like skrillex, you should use Propellerhead Reason 5

[beyondrupture]

@alexanderbergstrom oh, you got me wrong. I love the thing, it's just a case of not fitting at all with my needs. I have a metal band :)
