How do I save a sound?
Saving sounds on the OP-1:

Save a drum kit: 1. In drum mode, set up your sounds 2. Press shift + drum 3. Select save slot 4. Confirm to save
What gets saved:
- All synth parameters
- Effects settings
- LFO settings
- Sequencer pattern (sometimes)
Loading saved sounds: 1. Press synth (or drum) 2. Turn blue encoder to find your engine 3. Turn orange encoder to select preset slot 4. Your saved sound loads
Factory presets:
- OP-1 comes with factory sounds
- These are stored in dedicated slots
- User sounds are separate
Backup to computer: 1. Connect OP-1 via USB 2. Put OP-1 in disk mode (hold COM) 3. Copy .aif files from synth/drum folders 4. These contain your sounds
Tips:
- Name your sounds logically
- Back up regularly
- Share presets with other OP-1 users
- Factory reset won't delete user presets (usually)
Note: The OP-1 has limited preset slots per engine. Manage them carefully or back up to computer.
