I don't think so. If you actually look at the capabilities of their products, they're often nearly useless or incredibly under-provisioned compared to other instruments of the same type. And then there are their ridiculous price tags.

Professionals want and need to get stuff done, which (as several have noted here) is not what these products seem to excel at.

Yeah, at this point TE is really more of a design studio that happens to make high-end audio equipment (along with other luxury stuff). I do think that, at least when OP-1 was released back in 2011, the target was music pros or borderline professional enthusiasts. Due to the growth of the community around it in the past decade, it's definitely possible it's gravitated less professional and more high-end consumer.

I don’t know that it’s targeted AT music professionals. But many music professionals I work with love it.

The TE gear isn’t some industry standard, but they definitely get a lot of love and use. I was in the studio recently of an A-tier film composer and he had a few of the TE wooden choir dolls on his desk.

Cute/cool, yes. Fun, yes. A powerhouse, hardly. The same money will buy much better hardware.

When it comes to studio/synth gear, is the difference really all that great?
