The Dream Machine
Careful what you wish for—your dream of a no-compromise, dual-CPU powerhouse is now a reality. Meet the fully reimagined sequencer, sampler, and performance instrument inspired by the beloved OP–Z workflow. Now featuring built-in CV, effect sends, and a top-tier DAC, it offers 8 individual instrument tracks and 8 auxiliary tracks to control external synths, modular setups, or effects. We believe it's the most complete, portable sequencer ever made. It's here, it's real, it's black—and it’s more than you ever imagined.
All New Look
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.
The Sequencer
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.
Step-Sequencer
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.
Connect Everything The 2 VRMs main output drives any sound system, real loud. Keep everything locked in sync and sequenced with the multi-out and take control with MIDI-IN. Process and sample external audio with the audio-in. Control, record and charge with the audio/midi host over USB-C, plus a complete wireless experience with MIDI over Bluetooth LE.
