Famoso per essere un ottimo strumento…confermo ora che l’ho provato!

Lo que más me ha gustado es que tiene muchas funciones en poco tamaño.Es muy compacto y tiene un chasis metálico muy robusto.Lo que menos es que es un poco caro.

Sobre las virtudes y limitaciones del OP-1 tenéis multitud de videos en youtube. Esta reseña va más enfocada al control de calidad.El OP-1 llegó con su precinto original intacto, pero una de las teclas blancas del piano no respondía correctamente. Si dabas una única pulsación, sonaba, pero si dabas varias pulsaciones repetitivas, la mayoría de las veces no respondía correctamente. Retiré la tecla y la volví a colocar y seguía el problema. Luego probé a retirar la tecla e intercambiarla con la tecla de al lado. Sorprendentemente, fue la solución y todo funcionaba perfectamente. Lo cuento por si le sirve a alguien con este problema, ya que las teclas son fáciles de retirar y colocar.Tras darle muchas vueltas, terminé devolviéndolo por miedo a que le surgiese algún otro defecto pasado el periodo de devolución. No parece razonable que un aparato de este precio venga con teclas defectuosas de fábrica.

Es una pena que no funcionara un botón, la maquina estaba en perfecto estado sin arañazos como decía la descripción. No entiendo como se vende algo de segunda mano defectuoso.....

Over time composing, arranging and producing using a DAW has become something of a chore. The OP1 has breathed new life into my songwriting process. It costs nearly $1,000 because it is worth nearly $1,000. Is there ever price limit on creativity?Here are my favorite things about it:- Full end to end music production. Is it a synth, a step-sequencer, a 4-track or a production workstation? It's all of the above! There's very little competition in terms of anything else so complete yet portable at the same time (except for possibly an iPad).- Portability. I can compose and arrange from just about anywhere. So far: on the bus, on the subway, on a plane, in a doctor's waiting room and in a train station concourse.- The synth engines. They produce a great "low-fi" sound, if that is an aesthetic that you like.- Sampling / Line-In capabilities. If the synth engines aren't what you are looking for, you can sample or record from the line-in (or the onboard microphone, but I recommend the line-in option)- Versatility with external hardware/instruments. You can place the OP-1 just about anywhere in the music production cycle depending on your work flow. You can use this as a midi controller, or you can use it for its synth engines sent as an audio signal to an external DAW, or you can use it as your main work station, with external instruments recorded to the 4-track as line-ins for mixdown and mastering on the OP1.- The cow...Many reviews of the OP1 break its features down into individual "modules", and then compare those modules to other products. For example, its synth engines aren't on the level of other good soft synths on the market, its mixing capabilities aren't as good as a full DAW, etc. However, each of these criticisms misses the point of the OP1. It is deliberately designed to have relatively few bells and whistles to get your creative juices flowing and make music, all while being able to fit in your pants pocket!I'm barely scratching the surface of what the OP1 is capable of, and I could go on for several more paragraphs, but I'll end by saying that I have never purchased an instrument that has brought quite as much joy as this one.****EDIT (September 2018)6 months after writing this review, I am still having so much fun with my OP1, and its capabilities continue to amaze me. Here are some "hidden" features that allow you to keep as much production / mixing on the OP1 as possible without "giving up" and finishing the tracks on a DAW:- You can use the built-in gyroscope to "wobble" the pitch of the note (similar to a Roli seaboard)- because "wobbling" the note causes the whole OP1 unit to physically move!- You can achieve sidechain compression using an external drum beat as the sidechain signal through the line input- If you pan one tape track all the way L, and another tape track all the way R, by recording identical parts into each and altering the relative volumes between L and R, you can place an instrument anywhere you like within the stereo field.I'm pretty sure i'll discover even more "hidden" features as i continue to use my OP1.***EDIT (November 2018)I can see a lot of price gouging on Amazon. DO NOT BUY THIS UNIT FOR MORE THAN 900 BUCKS. Wait and they'll come back in stock.P.s. I'm still having **so** much fun with the OP-1. As I write this, the OP-Z has been released, and many people on social media are (1) complaining about the OP-Z's battery life (3 hrs max at the moment) and (2) regretting not buying an OP-1 instead.***EDIT (December 2018)I take back the disparaging things i said about the OP-Z. I own one now, and it's a joy to play.If anyone is considering the OP-Z instead of the OP-1, i now have the knowledge to distinguish them here (in case you are interested):- The OP-Z is a sequencer, not a 4-track tape recorder. It has fewer synth engines and tweakable synth parameters than the OP-1.- The OP-Z does contain 8 tracks, and many people think this is "better" than the OP-1. However, the truth is that 4 of those tracks are separate percussive elements (kick, snare, cymbal and sfx), 1 of those tracks is a monophonic bass, 1 is a chord track with 4-note polyphony per step, 1 is a lead track with 3-note polyphony per step, and the last one is an "arpeggiator" track, which is highly annoying and a bit useless. With the OP-1, you can layer an infinite amount of polyphony onto any track you desire, the OP-Z is definitely much more limited in what you can do (even though it has more "tracks" on the surface)- The OP-Z is definitely a lot more portable than the OP-1. Don't get me wrong-- the OP-1 is highly portable, but the OP-Z just blows it out of the water with how tiny it is- The OP-Z does not contain a sampler, or a line-in, limiting its role as a "full production work station".- The OP-Z does not allow you to export the finished songs as a .wav file.In conclusion -- if you're looking for an all-in-one portable workstation, the OP-1 is your best bet. Furthermore, I believe that the OP-1 will hold up far better over time as a unique instrument. The OP-Z is great, but it's a portable groove box that you're unlikely to actually finish a track on.***EDIT (September 2019)The OP-Z now has line-in and microphone sampling capabilities in the latest firmware.***EDIT (February 2020)Teenage Engineering appears to be committed to updating the firmware for the OP-1, which is great for a decade-old product. The latest firmware allows the user to further slice up the tape track into half-measures, quarter-measures and even finer slices, making it easier to execute the sequencer in smaller increments to keep your tracks tight.In addition, in an earlier post i advised potential buyers not to spend more than $900 on an OP-1. However, this is now outdated advice, as the price of new first-hand OP-1 units has increased to $1,300 (presumably due to production costs going up as a result of now-obsolete parts being replaced.)So, would I have spent $1,300 dollars 2 years ago for an OP-1, without the knowledge and experience of the unit that I now have? Perhaps not. But with the benefit of hindsight, I would spend another $1,300 on an OP-1 in a heartbeat if for any reason my unit breaks.With that in mind, please please protect your OP-1 if you have one already. I'd get a decksaver and an official OP-1 case, and use both at all times when not using the unit. In addition, if you are comfortable with electronics, buy replacement parts on iFixit- you never know when you might need them!

El aparato esta Increíble, creatividad ilimitada y miles de sonidos y posibilidades para crear lo que se te ocurra. Super.

Si viajas mucho y te gusta la musica electrónica, este sinte portatil es un buen aliado. No reemplaza a un ordenador pero es mas gratificante empezar melodias o ritmos en el op-1

Buenos días.Ante todo, actualizar el firmware lo antes posible, lo notaréis enseguida.Es un juguete con todo lo necesario para pasar buenos ratos, incluso si no sabes de música, ya que tiene secuenciador y es divertido.No esperéis mucho del altavoz integrado, más allá de hacerlo portátil, cumple con su función básica.No hay nada en el mercado parecido, una alternativa podría ser el Yamaha Reface, pero no abarca tanto como este cacharrito.Saludos a todos.

This is without doubt the most creative, fun and flexible instrument I've ever owned and an absolute delight to explore and play. It is so robust but portable, so effortless to explore and so, so wonderfully simple to generate interesting sounds, melodies and songs with. My biggest problem is not having enough time to just sit down and enjoy it regularly!The capabilities of this machine (particularly relative to its size) are pretty mind blowing and make it worth the money. Nothing is as portable and comprehensively featured as this. Although it has limitations, they can be used to focus your efforts on particular areas and really hone your craft, forcing you to work in particular fashion but developing ideas effortlessly and rapidly - something many DAWs lack.If you have done your research and think an OP1 might be of interest to you I would very strongly recommend saving up or taking the hit and plopping down the cash. It is a seriously fantastic bit of kit, enhanced by the recent (Nov 2016) update that adds a new synth, arpeggiator, presets and bug fixes. It may be several years old but it remains unique, powerful and highly sought-after.The OP1 will always hold a special place in my heart and my collection of instruments and gadgets. It is utterly unique but highly practical and useable. It is expensive but it is very powerful and hugely entertaining.For reference I also own a Novation Circuit, Volca Kick, Keystep, Korg Monotron Delay and plan on getting a Waldorf Blofeld and Elektron Octatrack very soon. I kept a very close eye on the Amazon price and bought it when it dropped pretty low. I would strongly recommend only buying from Amazon or proven reputable 3rd parties as I've heard of people being burned by dodgy sellers - likely scammers.

Zugegeben war ich anfangs ein wenig entsetzt:-keine "richtige" Klaviatur-keine Anleitung dabei-die wichtigsten Tasten/Knöpfe waren mit einer aufgelegten Folie beschrieben-die Anzeigen im Display erinnern etwas an die 1. Gameboyvariante-es lagen doch tatsächlich 2 Gummibänder dabei,mit denen man das Styroporcase zumachen kann...und das alles für schlappe unter 1000 Euro!Jetzt das große ABER:Das Ding ist absolut wertig verarbeitet,klein und für den kreativen Kopf von unschätzbarem Wert!Es macht unheimlich Spaß,immer wieder neue Funktionen zu entdecken und hat man sich erstmal ein wenig in Sampler&Coeingearbeitet sprudelt es eigentlich nur so von Ideen und "was-passiert-wenn-ich-hier drücke"-Ereignissen und man kann sichkaum mehr von der Kiste lösen.Man ist dauernd am Experimentieren und aus dem ganzen vermeintlichen Chaos kommen später diewahnsinnigsten Sachen zustande!Als Tip sei hier auf die vielen Videoportale hingewiesen.Fazit:Wer ein Jukeboxmusiker ist und nur nach Noten spielt,wird hiermit wohl nicht glücklich.Wer jedoch selbervorzugsweise elektronische Musik macht und evtl. seinen Gerätepark etwas erweitern und aufhübschen möchte,ist hier goldrichtig!
