The Teenage Engineering OP-XY is an innovative, high-performance sequencer, synthesiser, and sampler designed for precise, raw, and deliberate music production, drawing inspiration from underground dance music cultures worldwide.
Dynamic Workflow and Creative Control
With its core workflow built around an advanced step sequencer, the OP-XY offers a seamless blend of precision and creative flexibility. Musicians can craft complex compositions by stacking sequences like building blocks, then transform their sound with punch-in effects to add depth and complexity. The exclusive brain™ chord progression feature allows intuitive chord creation, putting total musical control directly in your hands.
Seamless Connectivity for Studio Integration
Designed to eliminate setup hassles, the OP-XY delivers a fully integrated, ‘cruise control’ experience for professionals, enabling it to communicate with all studio elements effortlessly. The device includes a powerful multi-out port with four outputs, allowing it to manage different sound sources, whether pushing tight, rhythmic drum tracks, sequencing synthesisers, or commanding effects pedals—all with a high level of responsiveness, suitable for complex Eurorack systems.
Optimised for Stage Performance
For live shows and studio sessions alike, the OP-XY elevates performance with a multi-sampler that supports simultaneous sampling across different ‘zones’ and features new, finely tuned synth engines with greater sonic power. The addition of geometric visuals enables users to track and manage sequences visually, while a library of punch-in effects allows instant, on-the-fly sound manipulation. Its unique gyroscope feature lets users fade tracks in and out simply by tilting the device, opening up a new dimension of interactive control for live performances.
