hey all,
recently i've decided to sell my op-1 that i've had for a few years. it's a neat little machine but it feels like a toy and it really doesn't motivate me like it used to. mainly i find its sequencers kind of stunting, and i find it pairs really poorly with ableton or other hardware.
i'm thinking of transitioning into a setup with a strong surprising hardware sequencer/groovebox that i'd have hooked up to ableton, mainly for improv + live sets. i'd do full DAW but i need hands-on equipment to really get in any groove. im interested in sounds ranging from tech house to breakcore and weird glitchy stuff. but also ambient? i'm a big fan of skee mask and the sounds he makes generally
i have my eyes on various elektron machines like the DT and OT, but i also see a lot abt the polyend tracker, and the new M8 tracker that everyone is talking abt? there's a lot of options and im not really sure what to go for. or would it make sense to get a squarp pyramid and just sequence vsts with it? any starting points would help. thanks!
