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, andperformance 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 individualinstrument tracks and 8 auxiliary tracks for controlling any external synthesizer, modular or otherwise, and adding effects. we dare to say it's probably the mostcomplete, 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.

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.

transpose and generate uncharted chord progressions USING BRAIN™ AND GET different SOUNDS, every time.

schritt-sequenzen.
run every track, independently, at different speeds and lengths to formpowerful polyrhythms. create new sequences every time with stepcomponents, 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.

monium
now say ‘amen’. the organ and sampler takes center stage in monium. perfect for swelling pads, heartfelt gospel chords and rumbling basses, the organ has all the controls YOU NEED.
curio
time to brain dance. curio is the russian 80's space-disco track that uses thumping basses, leads and everything in-between in the blink of an eye with prism.
entropie
A rhythmic noise track that traverses the depths of hell, and it’s different every time. entropie stands as a testament to the power of step components and sound design on OP–XY.
ask why
CAN YOU HEAR THE SUNSET? the cleanliness of the sampler shines in ask why. sample all your favorite synths, drums and sounds with near-perfect accuracy.
pulse
pure techno-intelligence. pulse layers several drum samplers together, spotlighting the AGILITY of arrangement on OP–XY. place any engine, anywhere.
goinis
