This was dope.

After checking out countless videos you are the first to demonstrate what could be done on this with a fun & tasteful beat. Everyone else is unbelievably fixated on price and the “better option”.

I’m definitely been making hip hop on this thing . Also Ski beats been cooking hip hop too

[Khordmaster]

Great video bro!! Tap tempo is same as on the OP-1 field, just gotta tap the tempo button! Super convenient 👌🏾

[Liminal.Pulses]

have never seen your content before, new fan and subscriber here. Nice work, really like you vibe and how natural you explain things and have fun with it. Most enjoyable xy vid I’ve seen so far, and LOVE what you’re doing at 15 min. in, so dope. Good stuff man, keep it up!

Shift record is undo I believe ❤ great video

[tColorsinspacerecordings]

I’m loving it. FYI they dropped an update today…

[andrewgobel]

Love the beat! Don’t forget your undo powers

[vagifrzayev]

Hey dre; great video. Does it allow one to export completed tracks?

[Nerd-momx]

That house beat towards the end was straight 🔥

[lifesagravee]

Awesome video! I'm planning on getting one when I get my bonus in February. I love how you can tell you're just a music fan and are learning this thing with everyone else. Makes it super relatable. :3 Also! how do you get that effect to see the screen better?

[meme_enthusiast]

to tap the tempo just tap the tempo menu button to your desired tempo

[vagueversatile]

Amazing! How did you get a “creator discount”? Asking TE by email?

[Liminal.Pulses]

Had mine for a few days, it’s so good! Just a quick tip 😎 At around the 11 minute mark, in arranger mode, you’re clearing things in different scenes. Word, you CAN do that, but also could just MUTE that track, so it’s not gone forever (you may change your mind and want to turn it back on). So in that part of the sequence, instead of clearing/deleting, just mute it by holding shift and tapping the corresponding track you want muted ✌🏽Enjoying your content, keep it up! I just posted my first track sketch with the XY, check it out!

So which one is the best for sampling and lo-fi ambient beats? 🙂 Didn't get the answer

[Blogspierre]

Shift + Rec will undo the last take you recorded.

[bboyeducator]

@6:20 random fire imo. Liking, subscribing, clicking the bell. Mine is in the mail. Stoked

[skoolafish]

i make hip hop with mine, my last few vids involve this joint

[Nerd-momx]

The quality of the product seems top notch, but for the cost it starts to be a little gimmicky in my opinion. What do you think sets this apart?

[taniyabillings]

Request: 1 hour loop of sza ghost in the machine

People make mistakes and don’t have ‘real’ needs…they have lust, It should reassure you that you too can sell anything and be great at it. Go be a success.
