AFAIK they never sold these but gave them away as special gift. Great design!

PO Speak and KO! are also in there!

Yeah they are there, zooming in on the top view you can see the words in black teenage engineering on the blue plastic above the speaker next to the handle.

Fair bit here to indicate a lamp speaker prototypes and precendent images. And the long hinted turntable?
Pretty cool.
OPZ has a cable plugged in but the USB doesn’t seem to plugged into anything. Assuming this can be plugged directly into the OP-1.

Did TE have a hand in the ios Frekvens fx app? Been using it a lot recently in BM3…Was thinking it was kinda Op1-ish. Or is it just a coincidence with the name?
