Common Teenage Engineering OP-1 Field Questions
How do I sync the OP-1 Field to external MIDI devices like a drum machine or DAW?
Go to Shift + Com and select 'MIDI'. Here you can choose between different sync modes like 'USB MIDI', 'BLE MIDI', 'DIN Sync' or 'USB Host'. Remember to set the correct MIDI channel on both the OP-1 Field and your external device to ensure proper synchronization.
Where are my synth presets, drum kits, and tape patterns saved and how do I back them up?
Presets, kits, and patterns are stored directly on the OP-1 Field's internal storage. Connect the OP-1 Field to your computer via USB and enter disk mode (Shift + Disk) to access the files, then back them up to your computer by simply dragging them across.
How do I quickly sample audio into the OP-1 Field?
Hold the microphone button and then press any of the sampler keys(1-8) to record audio for the set sampler, or choose a preset and then press the sampler key to overwrite that slot's audio.
My OP-1 Field screen is frozen or acting strangely. How do I reset it?
Try a soft reset by holding the power button for 10 seconds. If the problem persists, perform a factory reset (note that this will erase all user data!) by turning the OP-1 Field off, then holding the microphone button while powering it back on until the reset option appears on screen.
What are the main differences between the OP-1 and the OP-1 Field?
The OP-1 Field features stereo sampling/audio, Bluetooth MIDI, USB-C connectivity, a higher resolution screen, and a redesigned chassis with improved build quality as well as internal recording memory increase.
