The Teenage Engineering OP-Z Dream Machine is a hot rodded version of the legendary OP-1 portable synth, now with more DSP and much smaller footprint for your stage or studio setup. It is completely standalone providing a 16-track sequencer, built-in synth and a top notch sampler. It is fully compatible with MIDI, CV/Trig, Image/3D and DMX lighting.
Each of the 16 tracks within the sequencer can be modified to be completely unique, allowing the customization of individual track speed and length. To take that one step further, Teenage Engineering now includes a feature called Step Components. This second layer on the sequencer helps take the sound to a whole new level, allowing you to add variation per cycle, note variation, micro sequencing, direction, parameter changes, re-trigs and more, all individually per step in the sequence.
Another powerful new feature is the Catch Up function, which forces a track to exit the current sequence at a certain step in order to stay in sync with everything else, very useful feature if you have detailed layering in a single step on the sequencer. From the 14 components spread across the three main function groups (triggers, note variations and specials) and 10 unique programmable values within those groups, there are 140 ways to modify and customize a single step within your sequence.
With the live user in mind, the OP-Z provides back-lit, multi-color LEDs and special glow in the dark paint (which is a "world’s first" on a pro synth) to make it easy to perform in a low light club environment or compose in the comfort of your bed.
Although the OP-Z can be used as a standalone synth, it features integrated BYOS ("Bring Your Own Screen") functionality for those more comfortable working "in the box". Simply download the OP-Z app and pair the Dream Machine to your phone or tablet for full on graphic control of each parameter. This will also connect other phone features such as dropbox or your internal camera to sync photos or video to your live sequences without any extra cabling.
To be a top notch VJ, custom content is a necessity. Teenage Engineering teamed up with Keijiro Takahashi and Unity Tokyo Studio to integrate OP-Z with the unity game engine, which now delivers 3D graphics that fun full speed in real-time on iPhone or iPad. This allows the user to customize every single polygon in the visual performance then use the OP-Z to sync those moving images with custom sequences.
16 individual and independent synthesis, sampler and control tracks.
