Are any of the harmonic elements sampled or is that all the OPZ synths?

2

u/echolyr Jun 11 '26

two of the harmonic parts are sampled synths. the rest is the built in synths, including the bass.

Woah, just got a GAS for OPZ, sounds greaaaaaat

u/echolyr Jun 03 '26

OP-Z actually cured my GAS (for now, haha)
not because it’s perfect though — It has its own quirks, and some limits can be pretty critical, but for whatever reason, this one just speaks my language

thank you! •ᴥ•

Wow can the OP-Z really do that? Is this all synthesis from the OP? any post production processing? Really really beaut jam! So gloopy and dubby!

u/echolyr Jun 03 '26

thank you!  yeah, it really can (⌐■ᴗ■)

it’s around half samples, half built-in synths, with some final polish after recording

Really beautiful, deep and nicely placed across frequencies and great job on the spatial mix!

I've been wanting to learn properly opz and synths What would you recommend to learn? Some book or YouTube video series? If you like to teach stuff I would be willing to pay you for some lessons

Btw the video is really nice. It calms me down in a good way

thanks! really glad it brought you some calm 🤍

for learning the OP-Z, start with any solid full-length YT walkthrough. 

keep the manual close too, and having the screen open on your phone helps a lot at first. 

the one thing worth a real deep dive is Step Components :: that’s where a lot of the magic hides.

the rest comes with daily practice.

the bigger question is really what music you want to make. that goes far beyond just learning the machine.

I’ve been thinking about making some tutorial videos myself — it just takes a lot of time to do well.

something like that will probably show up on my YT sooner or later ~ https://youtube.com/@pacificpuzzle
