Had my second session with it. Itās excellent.
I connected my OP-1 to it over USB and used the Tombola sequencer. I recorded two loops, quantized them to a grid, and added some swing. I then used those two loops to sequence two Plaits in Rings mode. It created these great, spindly little sequences. I made plenty of recordings, so Iāll edit them and post them eventually.
Itās way easier to use than expected. The Pyramid had a bit of a learning curve for me (especially initial steps like selecting which output is active), but this is quite straightforward. I plugged in the OP-1, hit a note, and immediately saw it come out of the active track. In fact, changing the focused track sends the USB MIDI device to that output. So, itās a simple process to select track 1, hit record, play notes, select track 2, hit record, play notesā¦
The āeffectsā are very enjoyable. If youāve used a Pyramid, all of those are here. If you havenāt, the effects are useful operations on sequences that can be modulated in real-time. For example, you can modulate the amount of retriggering, modulate the quantization scale, modulate swing, modulate probability, etc. You can also apply the effects in any order.
@misuba, I havenāt recorded CV yet. Iāll try that out tomorrow.
