OP1vacation

This is just a simple script to copy new album tracks, samples, files from Teenage Engineering's OP-1 over to a Raspberry Pi Zero. Motivation was to have a method to offload albums and samples from the OP-1 while on vacation, without having to lug around a laptop. You might be able to do the same with a smartphone that supports USB OTG but I do not have such a thing. So...

Warning: This is not the most stable of systems for keeping files. Use at your own risk

Use

Connect USB battery to Raspberry Pi, setup OP-1 into disk mode and connect it to the USB of the Raspberry Pi. New files will be copied from OP-1 to SD card of Raspberry Pi into a directory based on the date set on the OP-1 using the format "YYMMDD_HHMMSS". Copy could take up to 4 minutes.

When copy is complete the end copy ACT LED sequence will loop. See code for details.

Setup

Login to your Raspberry Pi and copy the sync.sh script and configure it to run as root upon each boot:

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/cyphunk/op1vacation/master/sync.sh -O /home/pi/sync.sh
sudo su
echo "/home/pi/sync.sh &" >> /etc/rc.local

Options

Test locally

On linux systems executing sync.sh and connecting a OP-1 should also work.

Use 3rd FAT partition

New files can be access on the SD card by placing the SD card into a reader on a Linux system. However, if you add a 3rd fat partition to the Raspberry Pi SD card you can also access the files in OSX systems. To facilitate this option the script will copy all new OP1 files to the 3rd partition if it exists.

Run action after copy

If the afterallcopied.sh script is found it will be run after files have been copied. The current script attempts to remove silence at end of albums and tapes to reduce size, and then transcodes new album tracks into mp3's.
