In this Compact Creation, let's put the EP-133 to the test! I'll make a track from start to finish. This is how I'll be using the Teenage Engineering KO ii in my studio. Sampling sounds, arranging a track, and getting ideas down quickly. As you'll see there are some weird quirks along the way. But in reality, it's just a workflow I'm not fully used to yet.

I own the OP-1 (OG), OP-Z, Digitakt, 404mk2 and now the KO2. Of these devices, the OP-Z still remains my absolute favorite based on workflow alone. My expectations were a little too high with this thing as I hoped it would basically be an expanded OP-Z.. it borrows some workflow elements but the things that make the OP-Z great were left out of this thing imo.

Ricky you are amazing at making tracks. I too was frustrated by the voice stealing, because if the machines polyphony limitations I found that stereo samples were best reserved for one crutial aspect. mono drums, mono bass, mono leads. something like a pad or those keys with a lot of stereo motion are really the limit of the device. essentially I consider it 10 mono sounds and one stereo. Also consider using the group function for samples to eliminate accidental sample overlap

​@EVILJAMARR I hear you. I really want to like the OP1, but it feels lacking. I've heard the pitch that the limitations are features for creativity, but I don't buy it. We're living in a golden age of music gear. Limitations are limitations, not positives when there are 5 other pieces that don't have those limits. I keep the thing, but it's rarely in rotation when I can pick up a Deluge, MPC Live, 404mkii or any number of tools that just let me play ball instead of working around their (intentional) hassles.

I wish we could enable punch fxs via midi. considering it's pretty easy to do like CC0 is no effect and 1-127 would be different levels of it. could automate a lot of stuff and play other insruments like guitar on top. Would be great to trigger them via footswitches or expression pedals.

I remain amazed you have yet to check the Synthstrom Deluge on the channel, esp. now with it open source updates. Not a criticism, you prob have used it I'm sure, and tbf the polyend covers some of its bases. but it really is a fantastic bit of kit as a central sequencer, sketch pad etc. Biggups for the vids as ever !

Agreed. The deluge is top tier gear. It's one of the most inspiring pieces I got and it's definitely on my permakeep list.

I love the design of the box, but I see that I would trap myself in another endless 4 beat loop with it if I choose to play with it. Thanks for your video !

The step feature I thought was going to kind of tedious and annoying, but honestly it's kind of nice. You can just use the + and - to find exactly what you're looking for in the track. In my opinion it's a really fun and portable device. The limitations though made me spring for an MPC after messing around with the 133 for a while

MPC is menu diving and plugins this is play and go

Dope beat despite the issues you had, sounds like some Saint Germain stuff!

I think the release issue is the same setting as the 3 different tails you can put in drum samples in the Field

Man you are so patient with this machine work arounds and inconveniences needs a good firmware update and that still won’t resolve some frustrations in the end built to a price and a cool 80s desktop calculator vibe.
