8.1.5 the parts

tape: the recorded part of every tape. sounds: your synth and drum sounds and snapshots. factory: TE's content. system: the firmware copy and databases. mods: this firmware's files (the undo history, settings and logs). bad: storage the OP-1 has retired as bad; before #250 a bug in TE's firmware retired good blocks too, and they stay counted here until a format (see the flash check). overhead: the file system's own bookkeeping. free: what's left.

8.1.6 tips

  • OP-1, OPT and FILE open as soon as the knob lands on them; CTRL and DISK only light up until you press the knob.
  • Lots of bad? #250 stops it growing; the flash check page says how to get it back.
