10 YEAR EXTENDED WARRANTY SCHEME

The product price includes 5 years' warranty and 30 day money back guarantee.

However, the Gear4music extended warranty scheme provides an enhanced service, and is designed to offer a higher level of protection than many 'free' warranties offered by some retailers and manufacturers.

The highlights of this enhanced warranty service are:

  • Warranty is extended to 10 years from the date of delivery.
  • Our Money Back guarantee is extended from 30 days to 60 days (terms apply after 30 days)
  • Collection and delivery costs are included for the first 2 years in the event of an item becoming faulty
  • Claim 50% cash back on the cost of the policy after 10 years if it has not been used!
  • Warranty is transferable if the item is re-sold
  • Loan or replacement equipment will be provided if the product isn't repaired within 30 days
  • If an item can not be repaired, a similar alternative product or cash discount (as defined in this policy) will be offered
  • The policy can be cancelled within 30 days, and at any time after that for a pro-rata discount

Please note that this extended warranty is currently only available on products sold within the UK, EU or EEA, and is subject to the terms and conditions as detailed on the extended warranty certificate provided.

For customers in outlying areas of the country, the price of the Extended Warranty may be marginally higher, due to the potential for higher collection and redelivery transport costs.

This enhanced warranty is in addition to the standard Gear4music and manufacturer warranty policies, and the Gear4music terms and conditions of trade. No statement or condition of sale contained within these terms affects or restricts your statutory rights as defined under the Consumer Contracts Regulation 2014.

Oberheim TEO-5 Desktop Module Overview

View this description in Portuguese

The Oberheim TEO-5 Desktop Module is ideal for musicians, producers and synth enthusiasts looking to access iconic analogue tones in a more space-efficient form. With the same core engine as the TEO-5 keyboard version, it features five voices, each with two VCOs and a sub oscillator, offering a full, warm and expressive sound palette. The onboard SEM filter is capable of morphing from low-pass to high-pass, giving you fine-grained control over your tone.


Modulation is at the heart of the TEO-5. With a 19-slot matrix, dual five-wave LFOs and two five-stage envelopes, you can create highly dynamic patches with ease. The user-friendly layout means every parameter is accessible from the front panel, allowing for quick and intuitive sound sculpting. Built-in effects, a flexible arpeggiator, and a 64-step sequencer make it a complete creative tool in a compact format.

Authentic Oberheim tone in a smaller footprint

The TEO-5 Desktop Module gives you full access to Oberheim’s signature voice engine while saving space in your studio. Each of its five voices features two analogue voltage-controlled oscillators, a sub oscillator and a noise generator, allowing you to build thick and characterful sounds. Oscillator sync, switchable key tracking and selectable waveshapes provide a wide tonal range, while the SEM filter’s continuous morphing design makes it easy to transition between filter types mid-performance.

Its compact size makes it ideal for mobile setups or tight studio spaces, without sacrificing the sound design tools that define the Oberheim experience. You get access to all 256 factory programs and 256 user slots, with direct access to any program in your active bank.

Top-panel control for immediate sound editing

Every key function on the TEO-5 is laid out on the top panel, making it easy to dive in and adjust sounds on the fly. The control design mirrors the TEO-5 keyboard, giving a consistent feel across formats. Manual mode ensures the synth reflects the physical position of every knob, so you always hear exactly what you see.

Real-time performance tools include a hold function, polyphonic portamento and a unison mode that lets you stack voices with flexible voice priority settings. The module’s responsive interface keeps you focused on the sound rather than the menu, which is especially useful in live or time-sensitive sessions.

Advanced modulation with flexible routing

The modulation matrix on the TEO-5 offers a huge amount of depth for those wanting to push their sound design further. With 19 sources and 64 destinations, nearly any route is possible. Assign LFOs, envelopes, velocity or aftertouch to parameters like filter cutoff, oscillator pitch or effect depth, all with bi-polar modulation options. You can even route audio-rate signals for FM-style modulation within the matrix.

Each LFO includes five waveforms and can be tempo-synced, while both envelopes follow a five-stage (DADSR) format for more control than traditional ADSR setups. Modulation destinations are freely assignable, helping you dial in subtle textures or bold movement without needing external gear.

Built-in effects, arpeggiator and sequencer

The TEO-5 includes a wide array of effects, giving your patches a polished finish without external processing. A dedicated reverb offers full control over pre-delay, damping and decay. A second multi-effect unit covers chorus, flanger, delays, phaser, ring modulation, and more. There’s also an overdrive for adding warmth or grit, and a Lo-Fi effect for extra texture.

For pattern building and performance, the onboard arpeggiator supports various note values and octave ranges. The polyphonic step sequencer supports up to 64 steps, including ties and rests, making it suitable for quick loops or complex sequences. Clock options include internal tempo, tap tempo and full MIDI sync. With multiple I/O options including USB, MIDI, and expression inputs, the TEO-5 integrates smoothly into both studio and live environments.
