anything your heart desires. more tuts on Operator are always good. maybe you could get into the rest of Live instruments too; any kind of hacks/sounds you're able to get out of them that are unique. for instance, I tweak Operator a lot but not as much with Analog, Tension, or Collision. ...been meaning to get into the rest of Live's instruments.

+1
operator gets a lot of (deserved) attention but almost no one focuses on tutorials for tension, collision, electric, analog

Nice. Simple stuff but the simple things are very often quite musically useful.

The stuff about only being able to change 'octaves' and hertz is actually inaccurate.

You are actually selecting points of the harmonic series. 2 is an octave above 1, yes, but 3 is an octave plus a fifth above 1 (3rd multiple). That makes its relation to 2, a fifth. If you climb up high enough, you can actually find a major third. This would be slightly higher sounding (I think it is a 5:4 ratio). In this case, you would slide those knobs up to 5 and 4, and just adjust the master pitch knob to compensate for the higher pitch :):)
