A mk2 would be cool!
I doubt there will be any perceivable difference between older models and the upcoming one.
At least shipping is free.
Idk how many new parts it will get but I love the idea of a refresh. I was seriously thinking to get another one as I sold my previous for whatever reason but miss it honestly.
The price has been too high though. This is great news.
Either older and cheaper or newer and fresh
I am saving up for an mk2, sounds lovely too: TE OP-1 mk2
tldr. whats functionally new with coming OP-1 other than new batch?
It doesnāt sound like there will be new functionality or a different appearance. More like some internal redesign to cope with the fact that they cannot source some parts anymore.
ok like they stated in that mail. i was afraid of missing out here
Iām not so sure. Their are several āweakā parts in the OP-1 that many users had to return to base. Including the jack. If there is a remodelling i hope they fix these things with stronger parts.
I still see them for sale at Uber price, I feel sad for the sellers
yeah, lost some buttons, sometimes one getās stuck, my speaker broke years ago, and it is actually a pretty noisy output! Luckily I paid only 550euros 2nd hand, it was only 6months old! But I do love the sounds, and the beautiful screen
I really hope they make a big version of it (like AK) but with multiple screens, ribbons to control the tape etc, joystickmorphing, more ccās, bigger management of sounds, tapetracks,ā¦
