Teenage Engineering OP-XY is a new supercharged OP-Z style sequencer synth workstation with new features taken to the Field series
For a few days now, Teenage Engineering has been teasing a new device on social media. There were also trademark entries and hints that it might be a successor to the OP-Z.
The instrument’s name will be OP-XY and will be presented this afternoon. However, it has already been leaked at Guitar Center this morning but now it’s official.
The OP-XY is a new groovebox in the Field series and seamlessly follows the design of the OP-1 Field. It has the same aluminum design and clicky buttons but in black with various grey buttons. Also, the OLED screen has a black interface.
Unlike the OP-1 Field, which is about tape-style recording, the new Teenage Engineering OP-XY is all about sequencing. As a reminder, the OP-Z mastered this feature perfectly and is still one of the best and most creative sequencers. The OP-XY continues OP-Z this.
