Meanwhile, the OP-1 was used on like 40% of all modern pop music production process.

I think the market is massively successful artists and they know they will pay.

I’d love to see a citation for that. Lots of artists use it for demos, and it’s a good live tool, but if you look at modern pop it’s being produced with soft synths or Sequentials, Rolands, Korgs, etc.

Citation needed, given how poorly its synthesizer engine sounds, I do not believe that the case one second. It's certainly hip among hobbyists though because praised by a bunch of youtube influencers...

To me your comment sounds like something you just made up entirely.

40%? That seems like a lot. Where did that number come from?
Absolutely not. Ableton Live is used much more and I would be suprised if their market share was 40%.
Absolutely no way.
What a crock.
LOL! Blatantly false.
source?
