The video here is a good example of some random stuff it does: http://www.theverge.com/2012/8/28/3270259/teenage-engineering-op-1-accessories-launch-profile
The OP-1 prioritises design, sure, but more importantly it prioritises a good user experience. Everything just seems to work at the touch of a button. Simplicity in user interfaces is a fantastic feature, and valuable to people (see: Nest thermostat).
It's not just style at the expense of an inferior product, which your analogy implies.
Just a piece of friendly advice: your arguments will carry more weight if you tone down the ad hominem and other poor rhetoric (https://yourlogicalfallacyis.com/no-true-scotsman).
We are in agreement then. Most people love easy tools instead of taking hobbies seriously and spending the time to become proficient and develop expertise before gracing the world with their "productions". Instragram is full of such people with their cell-phone "photography". Soundcloud and bandcamp are full of "music producers" who barely know an ounce about electronic music. There are probably even "painters" who only use Toys-R-Us painting kits, "software developers" who only know Javascript, "mechanics' who don't know how an engine works, and so on. Our society actually encourages people to produce crap so that they'll feel important about themselves. Whatever we do, we never want to insult someone or hurt their feelings by telling them that they suck and forcing them to try harder and to develop more skill. What we now have is a shortage of experts, and of people who are interested in becoming experts, and an overabundance of idiots who just want to "get down to making music" before they even bother to learn what music is, what its history is, become proficient with the tools, and think of how they can bring something of value to the world.
I'm sure that some people on massdrop are interested in becoming experts. I'm sure there are also some who will happily buy the Teenage Engineering OP-1 for their 12 year old daughter's birthday, and some who legitimately know nothing about electronic music themselves and think that they're going to create something to rival their favorite pop band's masterwork using this tool. There are many types of people in this world, not all will agree with us, and we simply can't care about filtering what we say so as not to offend anyone. If we do, we risk continuing to water down our society until we really are all just a bunch of babies.
And I wasn't giving you that advice to stem any potential offence - it's so that your meaning doesn't have to fight through bad rhetoric. Don't your opinions deserve the best delivery they can get?
I don't understand your repeated arguments about "cheap" tools, while the discussion is around a thousand-dollar synth.
I'll be using this more as a quick "I need to nail this melody down" or a "wow wikkid sound i just heard out on the street, i wonder....." kind of tool.... for this, i like that it is small...
Anyway, just thought i'd give you another perspective on it, i'm probably somewhere in the middle of all the examples of "audio folk" you say above..... i've written (if i can call it that) a bit over a thousand tracks over about 18 years or so now.... lost them all recently to my archive drive failure....
not one of them has ever been heard by anyone other than friends and family.... some of us don't like to make music for anyone but ourselves ;)
Take it easy ;)
-edit- and YES, I am most certainly IN on this ;)
