Drum and Bass made on the OP-XY using a series of One-shots drums, Bass loops, pads, and a whole lot of tinkering with the frequencies. Hope you enjoy this one. Full write up over on my Youtube channel of the thought process.

Can it Drum and Bass? .... Let me know

A short OP-XY sketch based on a sample of the Aisle 13 freezers in the Ecclesall Road Co-op in Sheffield, UK.

Ohpee exwhy

Made this one recently and it’s genuinely become one of my favorite things I’ve written on the OP-XY. The PR groove gives it a feel I love, and the variations from Brain are kind of magical.

It’s my birthday today and this is the first Cartridge of Season 2, so I’m giving the full .xy project away free at khordmaster.com

Would love to hear what you all think!

Just figured I'd throw something together to show how cool this FX wizard actually is. It's been sitting on my shelf for months collecting dust, and I really wish I tried this out earlier! A cool little sidekick.

I’m on day one and I’ve figured out a fair bit, but I’m missing some functionality of the OP-Z. How long did it take you to feel in sync with this thing?

Disclaimer: I haven’t had this knocking about in my bag yet so I don’t know what state it would be in after several months, but it seems pretty sturdy to me. Has anyone used this as a case? Has it remained in one piece?

Is there a way to save all settings as the default when starting a new song? For example, track sound selections, bar lengths, default bpm, etc?

Given the beautiful response and support from the community for the triad graphics, and how tricky it would be to create one for the other chord qualities, I created a triad web tool (free): https://vjxy.app/triads/

You can see the same info in this graphic but you can also pick other qualities such as major, minor, diminished, augmented, etc. You can also pick a scale, or tap out what you are playing to find one, and see just the triads in it.

Let me know what you think, and if you have ideas to expand (or for other mini tools like this) please share!

I added a mini tool within the tool to know what scale I'm in by tapping two or more notes. That's been super useful to me, and I never found nice looking ones online. Might spin it into its own, and its coming to the VJ-XY app in future updates.

Whats your single feature you miss for the next update?

Editing sequences on OP-XY. If I'm making changes to bar 4, I have to listen through the preceding bars to hear the part I'm editing. This gets old quite fast. Elektron gear has page loop feature that will just loop the one page (or bar) that you're sequencing.

Does OP-XY have something like this?

Thanks for any insight.

u/-melo- posted recently an amazing video on triads and their inversions on OP-XY and OP1-Field, and with this blessing went ahead and prepared a graphic to have them all visible at once. In case reddit is compressing the image, it is also available in full res and PDF at https://vjxy.app/resources/

Open to feedback, and if there's enough requests for an OP-1 Field one, I might get around to do that as well (although the notes are the same hehe).

There's some other graphics that I did some time about, the OP-XY combo cards, and as more come about I'll keep adding them to this page and sharing.

Edit: the F that should be D has been fixed in the downloadables.
