The Oxi One is a powerful MIDI sequencer but when you first sit down it can be tough to understand how it works. This is the first in a series of videos where I explain how to use the Oxi One, get to grips with its features, and how use it to make music fast.

In this first episode I will give you 5 quick tips to get started making music with the Oxi One and your synths. This isn’t meant to be an exhaustive deep-dive into every feature, or a review of the device. Instead these are the top five things I think you need to know to get going quickly.
