They should do some wooden end cheeks.

I was waiting for someone to mention that!

I must admit that I don't quite "get" the OP-1 but it's probably an age thing. Seems like a vastly over-priced toy to me.

It's quite tough as well, I have been using it for percussive skull training on the dog and it has held up well, which is more than I can say for the dog.

I finally tried the Finger sequencer and the DrumBox. Fun stuff!

Now I'm auditioning various synth presets to find a suitable sound for making drone music with the Tombola sequencer.

Antimon, did you figure out how to start either game (Choplifter or the boxing one)?

There's a boxing game? Sure you're not just thinking of the punch effect?

Anyway, the chopper game starts if you push all four buttons to the left of the numbered ones under the screen. Can't say it blew me away, more of a fun crazy thing. Smile

the OP-1 is truly a noiz beast to be feared.

i LOVE this thing.
use it all the time in the studio and perform with it often.

once i picked up an iConn for it then it opened up to all sorts of synch for live noiz performance purposes!!

if you think it's just an overpriced toy...you are completely mistaken...

I just got a used one and I love it Smile

I have only scratched the surface of the sounds this thing can make and I'm really impressed!

Found a great forum here

and a nice unofficial user guide here

This YouTube user (iceritchie on the OhPeeWon forum) has some good video lessons/overviews:

Here's another user who has some good lessons as well (eg. how to bounce tracks, making a remix) - he's the one with the "Making A Track" lesson in which he shows the "chord memory" trick:
