INTRODUCING
TEO-5 is a modern instrument, crafted with classic analog soul, yet sleek and powerful for today's sonic journeys.
Take your music to the next level with genuine analog VCOs. TEO’s five inspiring voices sing with the warmth and power of pure triangle, sawtooth and pulse waves. But this isn’t your grandfather’s synth. Updated oscillators roar with analog through-zero FM, birthing textures never heard before in an Oberheim instrument.
Step Up to TEO-5
TEO-5 is your gateway to new sonic frontiers with modern modulations and vintage warmth. Experiment with through-zero FM shaped by the legendary SEM filter, topped off with iconic Oberheim effects. Compact, affordable, and bursting with creativity, TEO-5 sparks your musical journey, whether you’re a budding artist or a seasoned pro.
Unleash the dual digital effects, letting chorus, delay, and reverb paint your sonic canvas. And for a taste of true Oberheim alchemy, dial in emulations of Tom’s legendary Phase Shifter and Ring Modulator, conjuring swirling textures and metallic resonances straight from the golden age of synthesis.
