The Oberheim legacy
TEO stands for Thomas Elroy Oberheim – the man who revolutionised the synth world. With the TEO-5, Oberheim has created an instrument that represents the perfect symbiosis of classic analogue sound generation and cutting-edge technology. This synthesizer is not just another device, but the realisation of a lifelong vision.
Welcome to the Oberheim renaissance
The TEO-5 is more than just a synthesizer. It captures the spirit of the legendary Oberheim models OB-X, Four Voice and TVS and brings it back in a compact and affordable form. If you've always wanted the iconic Oberheim sound, the TEO-5 is your ticket into that sonic world.
The five voices of the TEO-5 use true analogue VCOs and VCFs, known for their warm and powerful tone. These voices sing with triangle, sawtooth and pulse waves, which are expanded into unheard textures by modern Through-Zero FM technology. And the heart of it all? The legendary SEM filter, which has shaped countless hits.
Modern perfection meets vintage magic
With faithful OB-8 envelope emulations and versatile modulation options you can shape your sound precisely. Complement your sonic palette with the digital effects Chorus, Delay and Reverb. For a touch of genuine Oberheim history, emulations of the classic Phase Shifter and Ring Modulator are available, providing swirling textures and metallic resonances.
Creative. Inspiring. Portable.
The TEO-5 is not just a synthesizer, but a creative playground, whether you're performing on stage or working in the studio. The 64-step polyphonic sequencer offers endless melodic possibilities wherever you are, while the multimode arpeggiator keeps your rhythms pulsing. The high-quality Fatar-Keybed provides top-class playability, whether you're playing floating leads, cascading chords or thunderous basses.
Tom Oberheim's dream has come true – and it can be your dream too. Whether you're already an experienced pro or an up-and-coming artist, the TEO-5 is your entry into the world of analogue synthesis and invites you to write your sonic legacy.
