    the mpd 218 has great pads, sometimes It comes with the screws from the main pad board inside too tight, if you unscrew them just a tiny little bit It usually resolves this issue of the rubber pads bouncing and retriggering other pads when you play the lower ones

    Ya! I picked up a piano recently. It been a little over a decade ago I lost one of my fingers in a freak surfing accident. Ring finger on left hand. Played wood winds throughout school age, transitioned to guitar in early twenties. When I lost the finger I was mad and sold all my instruments with strings but a banjo, which was my dad’s. About three weeks ago I picked up an electric piano. Found out I can key with my stub. My partner has said it been a few weeks and I come upstairs and can recognize you songs. My hands feel better, the plague in my late forties brain seems to be moving around. Since after a refresher sheet music makes sense again like in early college age and high school music. That was great and makes me just want to sit and listen and play around with this music today. I don’t want to work, just want to bang on my drums all day! Know it not a related song but hits the nail square on how I feel.

    Live is an acquired taste, to be sure. But once you do, it's pretty dang sweet. :) As for the OP-1 itself, it's hard nail down personally. On the one hand, it's two-thousand freaking dollars; a helluva pill to swallow even for musicians with the worst case of GAS out there. On the other hand, it does offer quite a bit for all that in a rather nice compact package. Choices...

I’m assuming theres just hardware issues with requests like this. No Wi-Fi…, Bluetooth but no Bluetooth audio..many ways around these shortcomings ( if you can even call them that) but the homies are killing it with their products.

    As a semi pro gigging musician who has trouble getting off the couch and dragging his ass over to the rehearsal space/studio to write songs, this OP1 has been a godsend. I've been doing this for 20 years now, and this has ignited a similar joy for making music as when I first picked up a guitar, maybe even more so. Luckily I found a very good second hand deal otherwise I never would've found out. Cause god knows I could've never justified paying full price for it. I just love how versatile it is. I can jam on it for hours (absolutely love finger in synth mode) but if I want to get work done, the recorder is right there, build in mic is more than adequate once you realize you can use any of the effects on your voice if you use a vocoder preset and turn the mix all the way down (thx for the tip Kordmaster!). It's perfect for creating demo's that I can then send to the rest of the band. And don't get me started on the sampler with the start and end/fade repeat function, you can basically let this thing sound like anything and do it convincingly. Also I've been using it with the build in speaker 90% of the time, it's such a big deal to me not to be wearing headphones all the time. And the battery life, holy shit. Anyway for me it's perfect, but I'm more into writing songs and sampling cool instruments to integrate into my band's live performance. Also to be fair, I'm planning on using this next to the KO2 where I'll be creating most of the drum parts on, that to me has been the only downside, the drum sequencers on the op-1 aren't that intuitive to me. But other than that, yeah, love it. Sorry for the ramble.
