Teenage Engineering OP-1, Tricks and Tips : One Step Arpeggio ( DTube )
The Teenage Engineering is a endless pandora's box of workflow and fun. This video jumps into the void called Teenage Engineering OP-1.
This is one of the first little tricks I found with my Teenage Engineering OP-1. Turning on endless pattern mode and only using 1 step can create a amazing 1 step arpeggio which has awesome musical potential. I create this whole entire loop using this trick, it's a blast.
The Teenage Engineering OP-1 has multiple step sequencer options making it a very powerful on the go studio.
The Teenage Engineering OP-1 sports a 10+ hour battery life, which only adds to the fun factor of this hybrid workstation. I've owned the PO-1 for around 4 months now and love the device and will keep it around my studio, no plans to sell.
Some people complain that the Teenage Engineering is a "overpriced toy", complaining about specs, sound or build. In the end, nothing is for everything but the Teenage Engineering OP-1 is unique and different in a synthesizer world of clones and remakes. It's nice to touch something a little quirky and unique.
Teenage Engineering plans to roll out the OP-Z this year which will be iPad friendly, which is interesting. Rumor mill speaks of a OP-1 update in the works too. It would be great to get a update this late in the Teenage Engineering OP-1 lifespan.
OP-Z
You'll see the Teenage Engineering OP-1 in MANY jams, mixed in with other gear. This video, it stands alone and I hope you enjoy the video.I need to thank anyone who has supported my work in the past, present or future. It means the world to my content.
Till next time, stay creative

Still have yet to pick up the OP 1 but definitely looking forward to getting it one day. I am however so excited about the OP Z that thing just seems amazing and full of possibilities. The ability to sample things and have them play back together at different pitches and speeds while throwing effects on top of them, holy hell I can't wait. Have you checked out any of the pocket operators ?
That link is my previous video with the op-1 and PO-12.
YES ! OPZ is on my list too. I'm very interested to see how it interacts with the iPad. I've got a iPad Pro waiting to test it out. I love how TE is making these new devices and not following old build methods. It's not for everyone for I really dig it. =)
Seems like OPZ almost designed with the iPad in mind as the visual interface with the app
Yes, it does feel like the iPad was a central part of it’s development
Dude I love TE I only have the POs though. One day I will have the OPs. I almost got the OP-1 but decided to go with the electribe 2 first. I just was reallt impressed with how warm the E2 sounded. I kinda feel like the OP Z will take the idea of the POs to the next level and it just seems like they are packing a lot in to it. Really stoked on the ability to sync up video with it.
This is pretty sweet also. Getting some Red Means Recording vibes.
Yea, kinda along the same idea in video.
