Teenage Engineering PO-33 K.O!

Pocket Operators are small, ultra portable music devices, with studio quality sound and the flexibility to make music on the go. Affordable for everyone and compatible with all other music gear.



All pocket operator models perfectly complement each other. From drum machine, bass and lead synthesizers to noise percussion, the various unique units allow you to start a pocket band.



Use them separately or connect them together, the choice is yours.

The PO-33 is a micro sampler with 40 seconds of sample time. It has a built-in mic and a 3.5mm line input for recording external sounds on the fly. Sounds can be tweaked to your heart's content with filters, pitch adjustment & sample start/end. Recorded sounds can either be melodic (pitched across buttons 1-16) or sliced (split across drum kit sampler slots 9-16). Your found sounds can easily be turned into musical patterns with the easy-to-use 16-step sequencer, & manipulated further with the 16 punch-in effects. With the integrated preset kits record drum grooves over your sample patterns to make weird and wonderful beats. Sampling on the go was never so easy!
