OP-1 Field Firmware 1.5 Explained: Multi-Channel USB Audio, Amp Synth & Tape Updates

video upload by Noisegate

"Teenage Engineering have dropped a huge firmware update for the OP-1 Field, and it might be the most important one yet. In this video, we take a hands-on look at firmware 1.5, covering multi-channel USB audio, the new Amp input synth, count-in recording for tape, tape and drum crossfades, and other workflow improvements.

We also show how the OP-1 Field now works as a 10-channel USB audio interface, including routing individual tape tracks into a DAW or a USB-compliant mixer like the TX-6. If you are already using the OP-1 Field, or thinking about adding one to your setup, this update seriously changes what the instrument can do."

"High-energy techno producer Another Machines is showcasing the presets he created for Elastic OSC. Additional drums and MIDI sequencing of Elastic OSC are handled by the Elektron Digitakt.
These presets are part of the newly released 1.2 update.

Technical hint: Digitakt is sending Midi to Elastic OSC and receiving audio from the iPad - no extra sound card (for the iPad) needed - cool 😎."

Ambient Things | OP-XY Stranger Things theme Cover

video upload by Lo-fi Pask

"An ambient reinterpretation of the iconic Stranger Things theme, created entirely on the Teenage Engineering OP-XY.

To celebrate the release of Stranger Things 5, I started working on a traditional cover using the OP-XY and the fantastic Danger Strings sound pack. But while searching through my library, I stumbled upon a pad that inspired a completely different direction.

From that sound came the sketch of an atmospheric, dreamy ambient track. Almost as a joke, I layered the classic Stranger Things arpeggio on top, and surprisingly, it just worked. That accidental blend gave life to this ambient-style Stranger Things cover, something a bit different from the usual reinterpretations.

It wasn’t an easy process: I changed notes, key, textures, and more than once I felt like abandoning the idea. But eventually, everything clicked into place.

🔥 If you’re into ambient music, synth textures, Teenage Engineering gears, or Stranger Things' iconic sound design, this track is for you.

Hope you enjoy it!

🎧 For the full immersive experience — subtle textures, evolving pads, spatial details, and low-end nuances — listening with headphones is highly recommended."

Bad Gear - This Time it's PERSONAL

"Welcome to Bad Gear, the show about the world’s most-hated audio tools. There is no shortage of synth manufacturers offering costly top-shelf instruments: PolyBrutes, UDOs, all the old stuff but new and even Roland started channeling their inner Teenage Engineering.

Today, however, we are going to talk about Nord Modular. This range of digital high-end modular synths was introduced in 1998 and not only is there no modern successor in sight, they also made it incredibly hard to use the originals properly. This time it’s personal!

From Drone to Heaven | Ambient Techno Jam on Teenage Engineering OP-XY

video upload by Lo-fi Pask

"Creating Ambient Techno on Teenage Engineering OP-XY.

Starting from a distorted drone/pad, this track emerged somewhere between ambient and techno. It was created and performed entirely on the Teenage Engineering OP-XY, with support from the Teenage Engineering TX-6.

I don’t know if the problem is me, or just how easy it is to create something with the OP-XY; but even though I have dozens of half-finished projects ready to go, every time I sit down to record, something inside me says, “let’s make a new track.” That’s exactly how this piece was born: it began with a disturbing pad/drone, joined by ambient textures and an almost techno-like rhythm, before evolving into something more celestial and evocative; yet still keeping the same steady pulse throughout.

Composed, mixed, and mastered entirely on the OP-XY; I used the TX-6 for a few extra effects and to record the performance. I built the scenes but chose to trigger them manually rather than automate them, so I could introduce pauses and transitions exactly where they felt right.

Thanks for watching, I hope you enjoy it."

"✨ The Indian Resonator — now in standalone form! ✨

After years of success in Eurorack, it’s finally here — the Indian Resonator Standalone.
You asked for it… and we made it happen.

🎛️ Two self-oscillating resonant filters that modulate each other — creating deep, organic, harmonic textures.
Somewhere between a synthesizer and an Indian flute.
Warm sub-bass meets airy, flute-like highs — the “air” in the sound. 🌬️

☀️ The standalone version adds something special:
Three light-controlled modulation oscillators — play it with your hands or experiment with light!
Turn each sensor on/off, or control everything with CV.
Perfect between your guitar pedals, Teenage Engineering, or Korg Volca setup.
And yes — it’s still Eurorack compatible. ⚡

🔌 Includes power supply + demo video.
Available now."

Teenage Engineering OP–XY 1.1.0 - sample slicer update

video upload by teenage engineering

with OS 1.1.0, your OP–XY becomes an even more powerful sampler. this update introduces a new sample slicer, perfect for chopping breaks, melodic sequences, or vocals. it offers three slicing modes for flexible, precise control over how you cut and play back your sounds.

transient-based slicing:
OP–XY automatically detects peaks and hits in your sample and slices them—ideal for drums, percussion, or anything with sharp attacks.

time-based slicing:
divides your sample into equal sections, great for loops, rhythmic material, or when you want perfectly even slices across the entire recording.

manual tap:
tap your own slice points to create custom rhythms and break your sample exactly where you want it.

to go along with the slicer, we also added parameter lockability to the drum sampler.

duck:
with the new update there’s a new lfo, duck. use duck to quickly add sidechain compression to any instrument track. it takes audio or note data from one track and modulates the volume of another. use it to create space for your kicks in your bass or to add movement to pads.

this update also brings several quality-of-life improvements for sequencing and performing. you can now define how OP–XY calculates scene length for more precise playback control. song mode has been refined to work consistently with the rest of the device, simply hold shift before pressing buttons. this allows you to continue using the musical keyboard even when in the song mode screen.

using sound link, you can now use the same sound across all patterns of a track, useful for live sets or when you want to skip presets per pattern. and finally, a much-requested feature: delayed scene switch. when performing live, queue up the next scene instead of immediately switching scenes.
