A Classic Elevated to the "Field" Level
Born from over ten years of iterations, the OP-1 Field condenses Teenage Engineering's vision of a portable system ready for both stage and daily creation. Inheriting the cult design of the OP-1, this "Field" range model enhances connectivity, durability, and ergonomics, featuring a refined aluminum chassis and a flush tempered glass screen for professional, long-lasting use.Who Is It For and What Are Its Uses?
Ideal for beatmakers, producers, and sound designers on the move, the OP-1 Field shines in the studio, live, and travel settings. Its "Tape" workflow and synthesis engines inspire genres from electro, techno, and synthwave to pop, ambient, and film scoring. Accessible to beginners thanks to a clear interface, it offers enough depth for advanced users seeking sonic experimentation.Features and Innovations
The OP-1 Field combines stereo synthesis engines and stereo sampling for a hybrid approach focused on creating modern textures. Polyphony varies depending on the engines, allowing for switching between cutting leads, silky pads, and textured stacks via the dual layer mode. The Tape workflow goes further with 8 interchangeable tracks and 4 recording modes, facilitating overdubs, punch-ins, and quick arrangements. Built-in sequencers and an arpeggiator ease rhythmic and melodic play, while the effects palette includes the " Mother " reverb with wide, musical ambiances. On the integration side, USB-C handles audio/MIDI and charging, Bluetooth MIDI enables wireless play, and the FM transmitter/receiver opens creative possibilities. The high-resolution screen, internal speaker supported by a passive radiator, and 24-hour battery life make it a complete instrument to capture inspiration anywhere, compatible with iOS, macOS, and Windows.Technical specifications
