How to Pattern Chain on OP-Z (Create Full Songs!)

Today we're talking about pattern chaining on the Teenage Engineering OP-Z. Pattern chaining allows you to create much fuller tracks, especially when you start saving your pattern chains! Remember to have a piece of paper or open document on your computer so you can write down your chains before you save them!

Hey this is great info for all op-z users, I've had mine for at least a year and I love videos like this that reinforce and reinforce the process.
Not to mention that I've become dependent on the app, so it's great to learn how to do things without it!

Thanks. How do you clear a pattern chain?

[parkerwonser]

Good tip thanks! How do you clear it and go back to no pattern chain programmed in? Does that make sense?

[emilsvahn]

Can you chain different mutegroups aswell?

[TadeoValencia]

First of all, thanks a lot for the info, it's really helpful!

Second, a small question, can a pattern be timed to be played, for example, just 4 times, and then stop?

Thanks a lot in advance!

how do you get 8 measure long patterns!? cheers

[dirku]

What kind of magic made pattern one to repeat 4 times before advancing to the second pattern?

[livinproof]

I’m going use pattern chaining right now to give me a 2 bar or 4 bar pattern Idk why I didn’t think of that a long time ago

I wanna get an opz but I have not heard one good beat from it yet from a dozen different videos lol

I'm a relatively new OP-Z owner, so this might be something that came with a later update, but a pattern can be 16 bars long. You have 1-8 bars with keys 1-8, and on 9 you get 16 bars. Far as I can tell, there's no way to get to 9-15 bars, but it's a cruel, harsh world out there, and some things in life you just have to fight for.

What are yours opinions on it’s build quality? I’ve heard horrible things about the OP Z and the only reason I haven’t bought it is because of its double triggers and warping
