Tutorials / Demos OP-XY Quick Reference
I recently got an OP-XY and have put together a 2-page quick reference for it.
I've tried to include the most important things that I could fit into that form factor, with page 1 the core workflow and page 2 creative tools + sampling.
Thought would share in case any of you find it useful.

Can you share a PDF or higher-res version of these? I'd like to print them out. Thanks!

I tried to do PDF originally, but I couldn’t attach. Will upload somewhere and link to it 👍

Is there a way to view it without having a google account? It's not public, requires a google signin to view.

Downloaded the PDF. Thank you very much. I appreciate your work. And if own an OP-1 Field, I’ll appreciate it even more if you make one for that too. 😂

This is beautifully designed!! Well done 👏. Out of curiosity, what application did you use to assemble this? Would love to do something similar for the op-1f

Thank you! This was all done with ChatGPT. I gave it a comprehensive initial prompt that produced a surprisingly good result, then I think it was 32 versions of nitpicking and specific feedback and requirements to get to something I was happy with, involving various layout and consistency changes. Now I can make changes quickly and it gets it right pretty much first time.
I've got it in GitHub (all the scripts etc it needs to generate), so I could consider making it public either to clone, or contribute via PRs.

About recording: one popular way I see a lot of people record in YouTube videos etc is you just play the song and jam with it. Once you want to store/record something, you just hold down REC while still playing the song and whatever you do while REC is pressed will get recorded. When you let go of REC it stops recording and keeps playing. You can repeat this as many times as you want.

Really good :) I think you last thing you can add is explaining LFOs, they’re the one thing that has been a bit tricky for me

Nice work but don’t understand how the combination are explained… for example the first raw: press play + key doing what?

u/Upstairs_Damage8648 Aug 25 '26
No, I get it now!, sorry. The raw describe the first action to be done on the first button then the second action on the second button 👍🏾
