"The Ting represents Teenage Engineering's first foray into microphone design, but it is far from a traditional vocal mic. Instead, it is a compact effects processor, sample trigger, and vocal manipulator rolled into one handheld device, complete with motion sensors and live-adjustable parameters that let performers tilt and move the mic to control everything from echo intensity to robotic voice modulation in real time."
"It houses four primary effects: a standard echo, an echo blended with a spring reverb, a high-pitched "pixie" effect, and a classic "robot" voice. A physical lever and an internal motion sensor allow you to manipulate the effect parameters by physically moving the mic, turning a vocal performance into a kinetic activity."
"Four buttons on the side are dedicated to triggering samples, which come preloaded with sound system staples like air horns and lasers but are fully replaceable. It's a dedicated hype-mic, a performance tool designed for immediate, tactile fun rather than pristine vocal capture."
Teenage Engineering expanded from synthesizers and samplers into vocal performance with the EP-2350 Ting microphone, bundled with the EP-40 Riddim sampler as the 'Riddim N' Ting' set. The Ting functions as a compact effects processor, sample trigger, and vocal manipulator with motion sensors and live-adjustable parameters that let performers tilt and move the mic to control echo, robotic modulation, and other effects in real time. The handheld unit weighs about 90 grams and emphasizes tactile performance over pristine capture. It includes four primary effects, four sample-trigger buttons with replaceable samples, and a physical lever for kinetic control.
