Sounds of the OPZ | Consider this Before Buying?
THIS IS NOT AN OPZ TUTORIAL. This video is designed to show what it has to offer sonically. There's a new hype over this instrument (for a good reason) and i've seen so many people that are interested in it, so this will give you an idea of what you're getting into, so you don't fall into any surprises.
That being said, if you're not crazy about these sounds, you can always just upload your own samples into the OPZ and go from there; although from what i've seen, most people have been using majority stock sounds, myself included. I THINK THEY'RE AMAZING! And so are you. You da best.

I'm so relieved that I ordered an OP-Z yesterday. If I hadn't, this video would've totally made me order one today.

[@LiamKillen]

It’s just good to know what it sounds like beforehand, ya know?

[@jazway27]

Thanks, man! This goes a long way to getting over the fence... Subscribed!!

[@LiamKillen]

Thank you! Glad to have helped

[@GerenM63]

Great reference! Thanks for taking the time to put it together.

[@LiamKillen]

It’s my pleasure

[@Xenious]

The OP-Z is a curious thing, it is subtle and until you see it in action you can't fathom the depth and coolness of it! I've been an owner for some time but I appreciated this in depth demo as I heard some bits I'd never experienced.

[@LiamKillen]

Yeah there’s a lot of hidden stuff in there. Plenty of cool and fun presets to work with.

[@bjamminsincebirth3494]

The drums and percussion sound surprisingly good!

[@LiamKillen]

OPZ drums are some of my favs

[@KaosEngineering]

I like the sound-quality of it, far superior than some big brands names gears

[@LiamKillen]

Oh yeah big time

[@philphilphil]

The arpeggios are soooo good.

[@LiamKillen]

I know right!?

[@kathleencoveny3860]

hey lumberjack ... fabulous ... keep it all coming ...

[@LiamKillen]

Thanks for watching! 🙂

[@sodaverde]

I loved every second of this video.

[@LiamKillen]

Well ya know watcha gotta do

[@sodaverde]

@@LiamKillen AHAHAHA yeah man... PLUG THE MPC1000 aahahaha

[@LiamKillen]

😏😏😏

[@elliotbjorksdottir2878]

Wait, you’re from Canada? I was totally sure you were from Scandinavia, and I myself am from Sweden lol! Great content as always, man! 😊✌🏼I want a OP-Z so bad 🔥

[@LiamKillen]

Thank you! 🙂 Yeah! From Canada!

[@docjfnoel]

After watching - too many - videos to decide between the 1 and the Z I'm glad I went for the Z. I come from the Circuit and I think I wouldn't like the tape recording workflow so much. Only thing I was missing with the Z was the sample recording but since then they added it to the Z.

[@LiamKillen]

The two are completely separate beasts! Sequencing abilities on the opz are next lvl though- really something else

[@docjfnoel]

Liam Killen as a side note I'm from Canada too...far east on the Magdalen Islands ;)

[@LiamKillen]

Oh nice! I’m from montreal 🙂

[@HotStrange]

Alright fine I’ll buy one already.

[@LiamKillen]

Yayyy! 😉

[@madballdesign]

would you make a tutorial of making polyrhythm with opz?

[@LiamKillen]

I’ll add it to the list! 🙂

[@clavis_voveo]

Personally, I don't like the stock sounds very much. In what format can one upload new sounds? Samples?

[@LiamKillen]

Yeah you can upload samples on the opz as well

[@pepe7drum]

Hey man is it true the OP-Z bends? What about the buttons they hold up good with time? I've read comments complaining about the construction quality that's holding me up from getting one

[@LiamKillen]

It bends...? Not from what i’ve seen. I mean if you bent it it would bend lol. But i haven’t had any issues with mine it’s been a year.

[@LiamKillen]

Well shit

[@jens_gruenhagen]

had three in a row of buying and returning. all bent. and the last one started to get double triggers with 3 buttons. a shame but had to return it for good. the TE forums are full of this.

[@frenmortgaming613]

The fastforwardest video on the channel

[@LiamKillen]

lol

[@vertigev]

Hey Liam, does the arp track use its own sounds or do you use lead sounds in the arp track? I don't understand :/

[@LiamKillen]

The arp track is its own completely seperate category.

[@vertigev]

@@LiamKillen ok cool, thanks!

[@LiamKillen]

cheers

[@edgarm6017]

I've noticed that if i'm playing the string synth on the op-1 live, it will produce some artifact noise, especially when running it through a sequencer. does that happen on the op-z as well?

[@LiamKillen]

Opz has way less artifacts

[@itsmorphinetime]

Oh boy, here I am watching an in depth sound video on the OP-Z after I had just ordered the OP-1 and my bank account already has a vendetta against me. Hope he's ready for another wallop!

[@LiamKillen]

Lol! At least now you know exactly what it sounds like.

[@itsmorphinetime]

Liam Killen very true! Thanks for this! The synth engines sound so good

[@LiamKillen]

Yes indeed they do! :-) Enjoy the OP1- I have a bunch of other OP1 content as well incase you're interested. Here's a link/ Forgive the super long URL, lol: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fpLJi3qipdFpjqc

[@itsmorphinetime]

@@LiamKillen Oh trust me, already binged =) Very good and useful info. I feel like I'll already know my way around the OP-1 without any sort of manual the second I get it

[@LiamKillen]

@@itsmorphinetime I like hearing that :-)

[@drewfasa]

Just got mine after watching your videos - it came bent. Is yours bent???

[@LiamKillen]

Bent?????? No mine is not bent ! Send it back my guy!

[@LiamKillen]

And good luck.

[@BIG1TOWER]

Yeah now im sure I will buy the op z

[@LiamKillen]

Glad to have turned you lol

[@jimmystanton1114]

Appreciate this video, almost pulled the trigger on a cheap one til I watched this video, synth engine is really underwhelming. My pss-470 sounds better :(

[@LiamKillen]

It’s not for everyone! Thanks for watching

[@LiamKillen]

It’s true!

[@twot2846]

I ordered an OP-Z cause u

[@LiamKillen]

Yesss!! I’m sure you’ll enjoy

[@bjamminsincebirth3494]

The lead sounds are the ones that I don’t like the most.

[@LiamKillen]

It's a really specific sounding unit for sure.

[@bjamminsincebirth3494]

@@LiamKillen I dig that you can load your own sounds. I hope they would make a field version of it.

[@livinproof718]

I bought the OP-Z first then I bought a used op1

[@LiamKillen]

It’s good to have both I think

[@livinproof718]

Liam Killen OP-Z was my first TE gear after I got it I wanted more lol

[@LiamKillen]

Don’t blame ya haha

[@The_ElectricMonk]

First comment! I want that thing so bad. I will get one as soon as I can afford it.

[@LiamKillen]

Totally worth it! Let me know when you get it 😉

[@_EightySix]

I guess if you have absolutely no room for anything bigger, one of these might be good. Otherwise I can't understand why anyone would want one of these. People complain about the Roland Boutique knobs being "for ants", I'll bet some of those same people have one of these.

[@LiamKillen]

They’re actually quite powerful but obvi very specific

[@alexeykurilo4381]

all op-z synth engines sound like a toy.. just concider to pair it with some external synth

[@LiamKillen]

I agree and disagree. Some of them, yes, for sure. But some of em sound great. In particular i’ve been blown away by the arps and some of the chord tones.

[@javierceron3270]

DUDE I SWEAR PLEASE STOP PUTTING DELAY ON YOUR BASS OMG edit: thanks for the video

[@LiamKillen]

yOu KnOw BeSt BrO 😎

[@camrodriguez5477]

Just bought one! Super stokeddddddddddddddddd. Thx btw

[@LiamKillen]

My pleasure 🙂
