My Thoughts After 7 Years of the OP-Z

My Thoughts After 7 Years of the OP-Z The OP-Z was just the second piece of electronic music gear that I purchased, but it wound up being the most transformative for me personally. In a time where I had absolutely zero space to myself, it allowed me the freedom to still write music and be creative, and I still think I did some of my best work with it. How has my opinion held up after seven years of owning this little groovebox? You'll just have to watch to find out!
