UDO's debut instrument, the Super 6, is a 12-voice polyphonic binaural analog-hybrid synthesizer whose hardware user interface was designed by industrial designer Axel Hartmann. The product line has since expanded to include the Super 6 Desktop, the larger-format Super 8, the 20-voice dual-layer Super Gemini, and the more compact DMNO, alongside accessories such as the RBN-1 ribbon controller and ST49 keyboard.

The company positions itself around tactile, performance-oriented hardware — summarized in its "instruments, not computers" and "Play is Power" messaging — with an emphasis on ergonomic panel layouts, binaural stereo voice architecture, and build quality. UDO instruments are distributed internationally through specialist synthesizer retailers including Perfect Circuit, Kraft Music, Thomann, and Schneidersladen.

UDO Audio has 4 products cataloged on Equipboard, including Synthesizers. Their gear is featured by 22 artists, with the strongest followings in Electronic, Pop, and Funk / Soul. Notable users include BNYX, Porter Robinson, and James Blake.
