  • Page 6 Thank you for purchasing the Oberheim TEO-5! Small but powerful, this is the polyphonic synthesizer I have dreamed of making for years – five voices, classic analog warmth, full of great features. The TEO-5 is designed to make the classic Oberheim tone palette widely accessible, encap- sulating decades of analog engineering experience in a forward-thinking and innovative musical instrument.

    We’ve designed the TEO-5 to be as easy to use as possible. Its essential controls are within easy reach on its front panel, so don’t hesitate to dive in and start turning knobs and pressing buttons. Then, when you’re ready, dig into this user’s guide to explore the deeper parts of the synth.

  • Page 12: Setting Up The Teo-5

    Setting Up the TEO-5 Here’s how to get your TEO-5 up and running: 1. Plug the power cable into the power connector on the back of the TEO-5. 2. If you have an expression pedal, connect it to the jack on the pedal back of the TEO-5.
  • Page 13: Tune The Oscillators And Filters

    Tune the Oscillators and Filters The first time you use the TEO-5, run its built-in oscillator and filter cali- bration procedure. Repeat the calibration procedure if needed over the next few days. The TEO-5 learns the range of temperatures and will keep itself in tune over this range.

    (see “Saving a Program” on page 6). Creating a Program from Scratch The TEO-5 makes it easy to create a new sound from scratch by provid- ing a “basic program” that you can quickly recall at any time. This provides a simple starting point that you can quickly build on.
  • Page 16: Canceling Save

    Live Panel Mode The TEO-5 also features a “live panel” mode in which its sound switches to the current settings of its knobs and switches. In other words, the current preset is ignored and what you see on the front panel is what you hear. This is a great mode for learning, experimentation, and instant gratification.

Cal Voices— With a new TEO-5, you will need to use this feature a few times to estab- lish stable tuning across the full range of the synth’s operating tempera- tures. Since the TEO-5 is factory calibrated, you will usually calibrate to accomodate new environments, while under stage lighting, etc.
  • Page 25: Oscillators

    Oscillators Oscillators generate the raw building blocks of the TEO-5’s sound by producing waveforms, each of which has its own sound character based on its harmonic content. The TEO-5 has two analog, voltage-controlled oscillators and a sub-oscillator. Oscillators 1 and 2 generate triangle, sawtooth, and pulse waves. You can select any one or more of these waveshapes by using the buttons.

    Sets the amount of through zero fequency modulation from X-Mod: Oscillator 2’s triangle waveshape to Oscillator 1’s frequency. X-Mod in the TEO-5, unlike digital FM techniques, uses modulation between analog oscillators, so some pitch instability may be present at certain settings.

  • Page 29: Filter

    Filter The function of the TEO-5’s 12dB/2-pole state variable filter is to subtract frequencies from the sound produced by the oscillators and noise generator, thereby changing the overall harmonic content of the synth’s sound.

  • Page 32: Envelopes

    The TEO-5 has two 5-stage DADSR envelope generators (delay, attack, decay, sustain, release), using the voltage curves from the historic Ober- heim OB-8 (these are also found as an option on the Oberheim OB-X8). They are useful for creating modulation that varies over time according to the shape of the envelope.

The LFOs can be free-running or synced to the Arpeggiator, Sequencer, or MIDI clock for tempo-synced effects such as filter sweeps, tremolo, and so on.
  • Page 41: Global Lfo Versus Per-Voice Lfo

    Global LFO Versus Per-Voice LFO The TEO-5 has two separate LFOs. LFO 1 is “global” and LFO 2 is “per voice.” It’s useful to understand the difference. Global LFO (LFO 1) LFO 1 is a Global LFO and is a single modulator that is applied to all voices in a program equally —...

    LFO 2 Note Reset: Off, On Modulation Although the overall sonic character of the TEO-5 is determined by its oscillators and filters, much of its power to make unique sounds comes from creative use of modulation. Modulation is the process of routing one parameter (used as a control voltage) to another parameter in order to change the way the targeted parameter behaves.

  • Page 47: Unison

    Unison When is on, the TEO-5 acts like a monophonic synthesizer in unison that only 1 note can be played at a time. However, that one note can be powered by as many as five voices, depending on how many you choose to use.
  • Page 48: Using Chord Memory

    Unison has a useful feature called chord memory. Instead of assigning voices to a single note, hold down a chord on the keyboard and press the switch. The TEO-5 memorizes the notes of the chord. Single notes unison played on the keyboard then trigger all notes of the stored chord, trans- posing them as you play up or down the keyboard.

    The TEO-5 can produce a huge variety of sounds. While the factory programs give you some idea of its scope, if you only make use of its presets, you’re not really using the TEO-5 to its full potential. The real excitement is in creating sounds that are uniquely your own.

You’ll start with the Basic Program, then learn how to choose an appro- priate oscillator waveshape, how to use the filter, how to use the enve- lopes, and how to use Unison to fatten things up.
  • Page 68 Next, you’ll use the filter to shape the raw sound of the saw wave. To adjust the filter: 1. Press and hold down a key and turn the filter’s knob. Notice cutoff how it cuts the high frequencies as you rotate counter-clockwise, making the sound of the oscillator less bright.
