The 2-3 tricks that really did it for me and made this PO amazing, don't know if you heard about it : - You can do ratchet with drum sounds : In step edit mode, hold the step you want to ratchet and press bpm once (you can press it again to add more slices up to 8) -You can copy a specific step (meaning, with all its effects, tone, volume, filter) by holding its button down, and then you can paste it. - You can copy a melodic sample into a drum slot. It then slices it into 16 equal parts (thus its different from the algorithm that slices a direct recording into a drum slot which looks for transients) It makes it WAY easier to have well trimmed drum sounds (You can program 2 bars of sounds on each 1/8th note in a DAW (or whatever) and record it in a sound slot (trim it so that it's exactly 2 full bars) then copy it) -The same principle applies to a longer melodic samples that you can chop perfectly and then play with like you would one an MPC or any sampler. I really have a blast any time I play with it. Great video.

Is there a way to record notes in chromatically pitched using the step sequencer? You recorded the entire melody on the OP-1 so you never had to program an actual melody on the PO sequencer. Is it possible, or is the only way to record chromatically live? I'm looking for a tiny thing to record arp sequencer I "hear" in my head to quickly capture melody ideas and they're typically faster than I could reasonably record in live, so a way to record it in the step sequencer is important. 😊

At 1:32, you say you're choosing button 5, but you actually press button 9, below it? I guess you meant to say 9, because that's in the drum bank (9-16) and 5 is in the melody bank.
