Talk:Teenage Engineering OP-1

Contested deletion
This page should not be speedy deleted because it should simply document the existence, purpose and cultural impact of the device. It is still a stub so there is very little reason (two sentences) on which to flag it for speedy deletion. There are a lot of commercial products with articles on Wikipedia, and there is zero reason why this shouldn't be among them--Xiphiaz (talk) 09:19, 17 June 2011 (UTC)

audio in/out
I wanted to explain why I disagree with including audio in and out in the external controls. Although audio jacks can be used to send and receive CV/gate, I don't think the OP-1 natively supports this (which is why TE also sells the Oplab). Otherwise as far as I know the audio jacks can't be used to control anything or to receive MIDI so they wouldn't count as external controls. Boomur &#91;☎&#93; 01:26, 12 February 2016 (UTC)

octave definition
I also want to talk here about the "octave" issue to avoid edit warring. For one thing, since this is a digital keyboard that also functions as a sampler and drum machine I don't think it's as important to classify things by pitch as it would be for other instruments. Regardless, you gave the definition of an octave as "a series of eight notes occupying the interval between (and including) two notes, one having twice or half the frequency of vibration of the other. Therefore from C to C, or F to F would be equal to two octaves." That is also the definition I was working under when I said the keyboard was "just under" one octave: the OP-1 moves from F to F once, and from F to E once, meaning it does not span two intervals from F to F. And in accordance with this definition, in this SOS article, Paul Nagle calls this "one note shy of two octaves". Boomur &#91;☎&#93; 01:07, 17 February 2016 (UTC)
