die traummaschine.

be careful what you wish for—we know you’ve had wet fantasies about a no-compromise, dual-cpu boosted and fully rebuilt sequencer, sampler, and performance instrument, based on the much-loved workflow of the OP–Z. now including built-in cv, effect sends, and a best-in-class dac. with 8 individual instrument tracks and 8 auxiliary tracks for controlling any external synthesizer, modular or otherwise, and adding effects. we dare to say it's probably the most complete, portable sequencer ever built. it's here. it's real. it's black. and it's got so much more than you've wished for.

schönes einheitliches design.

the exterior is all black, and matches the exact dimensions of OP–1 field. a distinct grayscale gradient is at its center, making it clear that OP–XY is all about serious sequencing. hands-on graphics on the high-resolution display are all grayscale, with a bright red to indicate recording and parameter locks. all vital keys have leds to stay in full control. it's minimal. it's efficient. it's sexy.

das sequenzer.

experience the ultra fast sequencing workflow.  punch-in FX™ lets you add quick, rapid-firing, unique, live variations and adding individual step components creates an extra dimension and deep rhythmic patterns. randomize note timing, velocity and pitch, or use live automation to alter filters. use brain™ to create chord progressions, generating tracks that reinvent themselves. literally.

schritt-sequenzen.

run every track, independently, at different speeds and lengths to form powerful polyrhythms. create new sequences every time with step components, variations that can be added to any step on the sequencer, controlling everything from altering pitch to bending, skipping or even multiplying steps.

pulse

pulse repeats a step a defined number of times without progressing the sequence. use the accidentals to select the number of pulses.

hold

hold will hold a step a defined number of steps without progressing the sequence. use the accidentals to select the number of steps to hold.

multiply

multiply will multiply the number of triggers in a step, creating a ratchet effect, perfect for hi-hats. use the accidentals to select the number of trigs.

velocity

velocity allows you to set the velocity on a step to a defined value. use the accidentals to set the velocity value.

ramp up

ramp up alters the note of the selected step by following a ramp in the current scale. each time the step is triggered, the note increments up the ramp. use the accidentals to select the interval.

ramp down

ramp down alters the note of the selected step by following a ramp in the current scale. each time the step is triggered, the note increments down the ramp. use the accidentals to select the interval.

random

random will randomize the notes on the selected steps inside of the current scale. use the accidentals to set the range of possible notes. 

portamento

portamento will apply portamento to and from the selected step. use the accidentals to select the amount of portamento.

bend

bend will apply a pitch bend to the selected steps, different bend patterns can be found on the accidentals so try them out for some cool pitch effects.

tonality

tonality allows you to transpose the selected step by a fixed interval. use the accidentals to set the transposition interval.

jump

use jump to usurp steps and skip to a chosen step. use the accidentals to select which step to jump to.

skip parameter lock

skip parameter lock allows you to play a parameter lock on a step every defined number of repetitions, perfect for having automation on only one out of every few repetitions.

skip step component

skip step component allows you to play only one out of every defined number of repetitions. use the accidentals to select the number of repetitions.

skip trigger

skip trigger allows you to play only one in every defined number of repetitions. this is perfect for adding variations to your sequence every few repetitions.
