Bad Gear - That Teenage Engineering Thing

video upload by AudioPilz

"Welcome to Bad Gear, the show about the world’s most-hated audio tools. Synth nerds shopping for gear will come across plenty of options that seem a little overpriced: generic raspberry pis in plastic enclosures, iconic instruments going for around 50% of the repair cost needed to keep them up and running for the next 5 years and the usual Reverb madness raising the blood pressure of GAS victims all around the globe.

Today we are going to talk about PO-33. While this 2018 lofi sampler, microscopic groovebox and indispensable salted caramel latte chaser is both affordable AND powerful, it might be part of Teenage Engineering’s most perfidious strategy to go EP-133 medieval on your wallet.

OP-XY (The Dark Flagship)

video upload by True Cuckoo

"Teenage Engineering has a new DARK flagship. And it's called OP-XY. It's s huge step up in sound quality, workflow, storage capacity, performability etc. compared to something like the OP-Z. And as with all flagships by TE, it's safe to assume there will be many years of quality updates over the years."

OP-XY Review - Funky but Functional?

00:00 It’s Here!
00:50 The MAIN gripe I have with the OP-XY
02:40 Laying Down Drums
04:09 Adjusting the velocity can be a bit tricky…
05:15 Parameter locking the effects sends
06:48 I wish there was more sound design…
08:15 Laying down the chords
09:00 Bassline time!
10:33 The Step Components are CRAZY sick
12:15 The “Intelligent Transpose” is kind of crazy…
12:46 Using the onboard microphone
14:02 Adding another element to show off the effects
14:52 Tracks 9-16 are not what you think
15:25 Tape Beat Repeat effect
17:15 Punch-In Effects are super unique
19:00 Then combined with the Transposer?!
19:51 Compressor time

Teenage Engineering OP-XY Leak?

video upload by DECIMA1

Update: announcement post with additional details, videos, & pics here

dc11 aka Lucas Marchal Guest on Transduction Signal hosted by Trovarsi & Orly Gal

video upload by Trovarsi (Trovarsi)

Music starts at 2:35. Din Sync RE-909, Elektron Octatrack, and eurorack system. OB-6 not used but interesting to see w/o the side panels.

https://linktr.ee/dc11

"dc11 Bio:
Parisian-based producer and live artist dc11 specializes in modular synthesis, crafting deep and organic techno with rich, looping textures.
Drawing inspiration from the hands-on manipulation of sound through toggling switches, as well as from artists like Mike Parker, Sandwell District, and Luke Slater, dc11 began his electronic music journey with the acquisition of a Teenage Engineering OP-1, where he first created ambient loops. Despite initially possessing limited knowledge of modular synthesis, his eagerness to explore has led to the development of a unique and atmospheric sound. dc11 is definitely an artist to watch!"

Evening Synths Challenge #2 - Modal Skulpt, VXXY DCM8, Teenage Engineering PO-16 factory

video upload by Christian's Sonic Spaces

"This session was quite challenging. A VA synth, a rare digital chiptune drum machine and a small bare bone synth. Overall, I'm very happy with the result. The most fun part was playing the melody line live with the PO-16. Although you really have to concentrate to play everything correctly with the very small buttons.

The Setup was:
Synths: Modal Skulpt, VXXY DCM8, Teenage Engineering PO-16 factory
Effects: Oto Machines BOUM, Beetronics FX Seabee, Pigtronix Echolution 2 Deluxe, Beetronics FX Swarm
Freely selectable effects: GFI Systems Specular Reverb 2

Recordings:
Drums: VXXY DCM8 - Beetronics FX Seabee - Oto Machines BOUM
Pads: Modal Skulpt - Pigtronix Echolution 2 Deluxe - GFI Systems Specular Reverb 2
Melody: Engineering PO-16 factory - Beetronics FX Swarm - Pigtronix Echolution 2 Deluxe, GFI Systems Specular Reverb 2

The Reason:
How do you deal with having too much gear (like me)? It can hamper creativity, but for me there is also a way to use it to boost creativity. Challenge yourself with it!

Here is my challenge:
1. Random selection of three sound generators to use (plus drums can be added with the EZdrummer and a rhythm sample)
2. Random selection of four effect devices to use (plus another two freely selectable effects can be used)
3. Everything has to be finished in one evening (after work until bedtime).

The signal went through a Presonus StudioLive 16.0.2 into the PC via USB for recording. To create the complete song I recorded consecutively several stereo tracks. On some tracks Compressor and EQ where added in Cubase. The final song was then mastered using iZotope Ozone."

Everything Sounds Better Once It's Inside The Digitakt II

"Making a song from scratch is always an adventure. The instruments you choose to sequence or sample determine the narrative for your track. I chose to use the Teenage Engineering OP-1 Field and the Hologram Microcosm to guide me into what was later referred to as the "space jungle." This track falls into the jungle-IDM genre. Check it out, and you might find some cool examples of techniques to try in your next tune.

SonicLAB: Teenage Engineering Medieval Sampler

video upload by sonicstate

"In this SonicLAB episode, we look at the Teenage Engineering Medieval sampler, a whimsical companion piece to the original KO2.

We confess, the Medieval seemed like an outlandish concept with its unique packaging and medieval-themed sounds including trumpets, hurdy-gurdies, and crowd noises that evoke ancient pageantry. The device offers the same hardware as the KO2 but stands out with its distinct, medieval-themed LCD screen and faux-Latin graphics.

Despite its quirky thematic elements, the Medieval sampler features upgraded 128 MB storage, twice as much as the KO2. However, the additional storage primarily holds the predefined medieval sounds, leaving just 32 MB for user samples. The effects and MIDI functionalities are similar to the KO2, though the Medieval includes new effects like echo, ensemble and dimension Notably, the Medieval also allows for loop points in samples pre-defined, and multi-sample regions which isn't available in the KO2.

Ultimately, the Teenage Engineering Medieval sampler, priced the same as the KO2, feels like a bit of a novelty item. For practical use, the KO2 continues to be a more versatile choice.

Chompi and Teenage Engineering TX-6

video upload by Luca Longobardi

"... I come here every day, say hello to the butterflies, and talk about things with them. When the time comes, though, they just quietly go off and disappear. I'm sure it means they've died, but I can never find their bodies. They don't leave any trace behind. It's like they've been absorbed by the air. They're dainty little creatures that hardly exist at all: they come out of nowhere, search quietly for a few, limited things, and disappear into nothingness again, perhaps to some other world.
(Haruki Murakami, 1Q84)"

"I gave myself the challenge to make house music using ONLY the samples that come loaded onto the Teenage Engineering EP-1320 Medieval. And yes it was a... challenge, but I made it work! and ended up being pretty cool.

behind the scenes: the EP–1320 launch at visby's medieval week

video upload by teenage engineering

"introducing the world's first medieval electronic instrument, EP–1320. the film was shot against the emerald backdrops of gotland; sweden's largest island known for its magical nature, and medieval history.

the famed medieval week in gotland is a remarkable, eight-day pageantry and celebration of the island’s medieval history. the festival also celebrated its 40th anniversary this year, marking it as the largest historical festival in swedish history. more than just a festival, medieval week is a study of history, a retrospective where people can revisit the relics of the past that are found everywhere."
