OP-1 features multiple synth engines, sequencing styles, effects, and drum sounds and is capable of sampling. All performances can be captured to the 4 track digital tape machine for playback and remixing. The OP-1 is regarded as one of the most distinctive synthesizers of the 21st century and has been endorsed by Nine Inch Nails, Depeche Mode and Chvrches.
