Welcome to Bad Gear, the show about the world's most hated audio tools. Today we are going to talk about the Teenage Engineering OPZ. Is this compact multimedia synthesizer and sequencer with visualization options based on vj footage and the unity engine an actual improvement over its older sibling, the Teenage Engineering OP-1? Does the implementation von iOS devices like an iPhone or iPad actually work?

Thanks to Synth Repair Wizard Thomas for lending me his OP-Z and bringing old stuff back on track:
