Lost in Teenage Engineering OP-XY - Stranger Things' inspired jam


video upload by Lo-fi Pask

"Exploring deep basslines and cinematic textures with the Teenage Engineering OP-XY – a dark synth journey inspired by Stranger Things.

There are moments like this when I feel lost.

Every time, I tell myself that I need to move on, change things up a bit, make a jam with another synth; but the Teenage Engineering OP-XY is a vortex that pulls you in once you find the right sounds, the rest just flows naturally. This happened with the Danger Things sound pack by Metropolis Border, inspired by the dark atmospheres of Stranger Things: as soon as I started listening to it, something clicked, and just dropping in a deep bass was enough to kick everything off.
In the track, I also used some of OP-XY’s default presets, and I realized that with just a touch of sound design, you can bring out some really great things. At the bottom, you’ll find links to all the packs I used.

As usual, the beginning is very ambient, but the track quickly evolves, taking darker and more mysterious turns, until it reaches the rhythmic part, which is definitely more intense than usual. I only prepared the song’s scenes, but I preferred to perform it live. During the performance, I let myself go, especially towards the end, really getting into it: OP-XY’s punch-in effects are as simple to use as they are effective.

Thanks for watching, I hope you enjoy it.

Gears/Sounds Used:
Teenage Engineering OP-XY [https://teenage.engineering/products/...]
Teenage Engineering TX-6 (used for recording ) [https://teenage.engineering/products/...]

DFAM volca fm2 OP-1 field Dub session : Abstract Drummer 2025-07-26 by atnr


video upload by atnr

"A piece with ‪@MoogSynthesizers‬ DFAM, ‪@teenageengineering‬ OP-1 field, and ‪@KORG_INC‬ volca fm2. A session of minimal, dubby rhythms and synths washed in spatial effects.

The DFAM and volca fm are synced via their SYNC ports.

On the volca fm, a simple pattern is sequenced while applying ‪@HologramElectronics‬ MICROCOSM’s MICROLOOP effect.

On the OP-1 field, the synth is played with DELAY for echo and the CWO effect for modulation.

The DFAM is patched with PITCH → VCF MOD and VELOCITY → NOISE LEVEL for sequencing, with delay added via ‪@ChaseBlissAudio‬ MOOD MK II."

Teenage Engineering OP-1 w/ Roland P-6: A Series of Quirky Lofi Beats


video upload by goth jocks

"The results of my first couple of weeks with the Teenage Engineering OP-1. It’s a complete 360 from the sequencer heavy workflow of the Elektron boxes. Spiced things up with some FX from the Roland P6 and Source Audio Collider

I remember the first time I saw one of these 10 years ago, I thought it looked like some sort of retro futuristic magic device. I didn’t know anything about synths, but I wanted one so bad. But the price! As I continued to learn more about the synthesizers, the price barrier grew. This thing started to seem like a complete rip off.

Now, thanks to an unexpected trade offer, the Teenage Engineering OP-1 is finally in my possession. My thoughts: worth the wait… and the price"

"A piece for ‪@teenageengineering‬ OP-1 field and YAMAHA CS01, where two modest voices gently intertwine into a calm ambient soundscape.

OP-1 field: Records a simple harmonic bed, then overdubs melodic phrases on top. The master effect is MOTHER, adding spacious reverb.

Teenage Engineering OP-XY // Groovebox Duties


video upload by Dexba

"It seems like using a groovebox for its intended purpose leads to better results than trying to ignore the metronome and get lost in arpeggiators and voices. Who would have guessed 😌
Anyway, I suck at this genre, I was mostly proud of the bassline and my 'discovery'!"

RIFT - Modular Percussion #10 // Arbhar, Prism, Subharmonicon, Mojave, Matriarch


video upload by David Falcon

"/rɪft/
noun
1. a crack, split, or break in something.
2. a serious break in friendly relations.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________
El objetivo de este tema era hacer un patch percusivo con el modular. En el Arbhar tengo un sample de estática de la radio que paso por el filtro del Qu-bit Prism. Con un sample and hold desde PAM's lo modulo rítmicamente creando el patrón rítmico más agudo.
Despuén en el Moog Subharmonicon tengo un patch de Bombo que paso a través del Qu-Bit Mojave, y así lograr unos golpes que recuerdan a toms haciendo el beat algo más complejo.

Esa capa base quedó grabada durante un par de semanas sin que tuviera opción de añadirle nada más e iba a subirla así, pero decidí crear una linea de bajo con el Analog Four, un arpegio y una textura con el OP-1 y por último un lead/textura con el Matriarch.

(eng)
The objective of this song was to make a percussive patch with the modular. In the Arbhar I have a sample of radio static that I pass through the Qu-bit Prism filter. With a sample and hold from PAM's I modulate it rhythmically creating the rhythmic pattern.
Later on the Moog Subharmonicon I made a Bass Drum patch that I pass through the Qu-Bit Mojave, and thus achieve some hits that are reminiscent of toms making the beat somewhat more complex.

That base layer was recorded for a couple of weeks without me having the chance to add anything else to it. I was going to upload it like this, but I decided to create a bass line with the Analog Four, an arpeggio and a texture with the OP-1 and finally a lead/texture with the Matriarch."

"A minimal-ambient piece for Game Boy and ‪@teenageengineering‬ OP-1 field, where the Game Boy’s rustic chip tones weave through soft synth layers.

Game Boy: Sequence built in LSDj. The output runs into a ‪@ChaseBlissAudio‬ MOOD MK II, adding reverb, pitch-shifts, and occasional micro-loops.

OP-1 field: A prerecorded rhythm pattern loops while new synth parts are played live. The signal passes through a ‪@strymon‬ Strymon TIMELINE for delay.
