I am currently involved in a poetry/music collaboation. I have the poet's words on a DAT tape with no other audio.
How easy or difficult is it to drop in lines of poetry on any given key, so that it could be triggered on its own track, and recorded. I realize this is a complicated issue, but if anybody has some basic starting points, I would really appreciate it!
Thanks,
Barry

Interesting!
I think I'd be tempted to try and record your audio into the sequencer on the O. You then remove the key press (ie pitch) element. You simply hit play. Not sure if you have a access to PC software capable, but you could splice lines or stanzas, etc into seperate files. Then 'play' them into the O and record on the sequencer.
If you don't use software, you could do seperate songs for each element of spoken word you want, ie lines, stanzas, words, etc.
With either way above you'll be able to assign the whole world of O effects which could be amazing...
Just my starter for 10 - may not be the best way, but certainly one that will work, will not change the pitch (unless that's what you're looking for, so perhaps try RPPR?) and can be called up on demand.

I would suggest using good-ole Sampling mode. Sampling the audio from a DAT player would be reasonably easy, and help you to learn about this part of the O. It will give you access to some sample processing, such as time slicing, which might be cool. It also means you can easily change pitch on the fly as well. But even just for straightforward "playing a key to trigger a sample at the right time in the song", I would suggest that Sample mode makes things easier to manipulate than the Audio Recording function.
What happens, briefly, is that once you have some samples recorded, you assign them to a Program (the page menu in Sample Mode has a function to do this automatically). Then you use this Program in a track in Sequence mode to trigger samples at will across the keyboard.
[This is a situation where I'd suggest doing the Save All thing, so you have .sng, sample, and pcg files all with the same name. First create a new folder on the HD to help separate things.]
