Teenage Engineering's OP-1 synthesiser costs €799 and comes with eight sound engines, four-track tape, drum sampler, midi-controller, FM-radio and battery

瑞典设计工作室Teenage Engineering的OP-1合成器于2011年在加州举行的nmm贸易展上推出，它立即取得了重大的成功，它以其激进的外观、工业级的部件和直观的编程而受到赞扬。OP-1是模拟风格和数字技术的一种奇怪的混合体，在其领域内有可能像苹果(Apple)糖果色imac第一次出现时那样，成为一款激进的设备；将一个黯淡的灰色和相当敌对的盒子转变成好玩、用户友好和欺骗性强大的设备。

大致相当于a4片的长度和宽度的一半，OP-1是一个完整的铝制单元。模制的按键象征性地再现了一个钢琴键盘，而控制是基于四个彩色按钮和图解按钮。该设计干净，国际化，并-在合成器罕见-乐趣。

即使没有任何音乐知识，你也可以单纯地看一看就能得到OP-1的基础知识。“我的政治观点非常左翼，我真的希望这些东西适合每个人，”青少年工程总监杰斯珀·库索夫(JesperKouthoofd)解释道。在合成世界里，人们倾向于拥有一些超级技术化的东西，因为他们想要感觉自己特别，并且觉得只有他们才能控制机器。我认为这是不对的。“

OP-1的AMOLED(有源矩阵有机发光二极管)显示技术是基于一个例子的磁带卷筒，旋转和风，因为用户操纵相关的旋钮。这是一个有趣的触摸，听起来像过时的录音形式，而驱动一项尖端的技术。我们对这盘磁带进行了很多讨论，因为这在某种程度上很奇怪。但如果你把OP-1当作乐器，那它就比唱片更有趣了。“

A strange hybrid of analogue style with digital technology, the OP-1 is potentially as radical a piece of equipment within its field as Apple's candy-coloured iMac was when first launched

Roughly the length of an A4 sheet and half as wide, the OP-1 is a one-piece aluminium unit

The moulded keys symbolically recreate a piano keyboard, while the controls are based on four Pantone-coloured knobs and diagrammatic buttons
