First video, scratching the surface of this beautiful little synth/ sequencer! More videos to come...
Here are just a few of the great Youtube channels that make incredible content for the OPZ!

Thanks for the shout out Jef! Glad to hear a fellow zedder.

[RianTrost]

Love to see this crossover of Jef and TE! Hope to see more Op-Z content in the future!

[robertshamansky]

That is pretty clever! Looking forward to some additional videos on this rascal.

Enjoying OP-Z since day one! Hope you could influence TE keep improving it, Jef. Like VST for DAW, official support for making/loading sound packs.

Great vid Jef! Music production devices are really changing the game. There’s groove box’s, beats devices, creative software for iOS and more. I’m old-school with DAWs, audio interfaces, guitars and keys, BUT I’ve been really studying and trying different devices for the last year and finding it inspirational. Thanks!

Thanks Canada for saying OPZed instead of OPZee! Great video, thanks for showing it with the app, most don't do this which is crazy to me as I want to see what's going on.

Thank you!!!! Been eyeing this and the OP-1 for a year, but instead I bought the Maschine+

[BenKrogh]

Checking in after a few months… do you still use it? Has the OP-Z made its way into your workflow after the honeymoon phase?

[BinauralBae]

Make sure to charge it constantly or the battery will straight up die on you like mine did. The encoders like to fall out and it's prone to case bending on it's own. I really wish they put in the effort to improve the build quality for something that's $600.

[johnsuggs]

Teenage Engineering makes some really great sounding stuff. Allowing you to be creative to the level that you can while having it so price.
I'm not a cheap person as my wife keeps telling me (when it comes to buying for me anyways). So I do understand that if you get high quality gear, you're going to pay high quality price. That being said, $600 for this thing and $1300 for the a bit much

I thought the MK3 had a learning curve!!

[epicon]

Teenage mutant engineering, teenage mutant engineering..

[reazallykhan]

I don’t know man... I’ll stick to my Op1 which I go to bed with .. it’s how much I love her

[valley_robot]

These have really bad build quality control, I’ve heard of encoders falling out and cracking and bending in the plastic, TE should have made this from aluminium, and had better encoders, they make nice stuff, but this, because of the quality of it is a massive no from me, despite its awesomeness, it’s a cheaply made machine prone to breaking just by using it regularly
