A brief introduction to the Teenage Engineering Pocket Operator PO-16 Factory synthesizer.
www.teenageengineering.com/pr...
Addendum: You can turn on a click-track (metronome) by pressing Function + BPM. This cycles through sync modes, which include an audible sync-click on the beat. There are 6 sync modes, 0 being the one you will want to return to when you're ready to play without a click again.
Sorry about the strange noises in the VO, still getting used to my new lav microphone.

Just wanted to say I've been doing some research into these and your videos are the most helpful resource I've found so far. Loving your videos!

Three words read the instructions it’s not hard to learn

@charlibiris 5 лет назад

It's been 2 years. I just ordered mine, how it went? Do you know how to use it??

@PaulTheSkeptic 4 года назад

@@Hipnolabia He could've bought it used without the instructions. These things are going to be people's entry into synths. What might be obvious to you might not be for some. Not a huge deal but I thought it was a point worth mentioning. edit Oh, so not to make a big deal out of this but I just learned something that's relevant to this discussion. The instructions are on the back of the device and are intentionally a bit vague and they end with the sentence "God gives the nuts but does not crack them." So it seems like they want it to be more of an exploration than a method for making beats/sequences etc. Which makes sense for what it is.

@bumboclat 4 года назад

3:40 when you set it on those 4 steps, how does it know to do the bass drum? Or is the sound 16 always the bass drum when entering in step sequence entering more?

@chaosdesigner123 4 года назад

Sound 16 is the drumkit. Every button in sound 16 is a different sound. You can change it by pressing and holding an activated step in sequencer mode and turning Knob A! The Kickdrum (d08) seems to be the default with mine too...

@RedMeansRecording 7 лет назад

Those are designations of tempo ranges.

@xXXShinXtremXXx Год назад

Compared to the Tonic and K.O. this one is a little bit weird to use in my opinion.. like holding down sound, doesn't show you active sounds.. or sounds sounding different once you are in playback-mode.. confusing little things :D

Hold the write button while you change the parameter and it should record the change as long as you have the sound you wish to change selected (hold "sound" and choose your noise).

Hey. Ive got a problem with my PO Factory. When clear a pattern I still hear a beat coming out of the device. Even if the pattern is empty I hear 1/8 notes coming out of my Pocket Operator. Is there any way I can fix it?

@RedMeansRecording 7 лет назад

You have a sync mode on I bet, which is spitting out metronome? Look up the guides on the TE page and figure out how to change sync modes.

@SabinesTestbild 6 лет назад

Yes, you can see the LEDs turn on at the corresponding steps of your live recording. In write mode, click each of those steps, the LED will turn off and it will be cleared.

@PaulTheSkeptic 4 года назад

I have a question that I'm sure will prove to be kind of a stupid question. But I have a reason for asking. Will this sequence external audio or have any kind of MIDI capabilities at all? I assume the answer is no but it would be cool if they could do that. Also, is it 8 steps max?

@RedMeansRecording 4 года назад

it can pass an analog clock signal out to synth with things that accept that, like volcas or eurorack. that's it.

yeah i think the robot is the best. it's a shame they don't really explain the Key functions in any of the guides. i can't seem to get anything together with the arcade =( or at least nothing that doesn't sound like everybody else

@RedMeansRecording 7 лет назад

theycallmejpj I feel you, sorry it's not working out for you. You could always just sample it and use it in a different way as samples :)

@theycallmejpj 7 лет назад

I wanna do stuff that is against the design of the po-20, but it only leaves me a couple of percussive sounds, root bass notes, and 4 leads of which it's only voice 13 that sounds nice. voice 16 with the delay is okay, but it's very staccato. maybe I just gotta admit defeat

can you somehow transfer your creations from a pocket operator to a computer?

You will need to record the PO like you would any other hardware synth or guitar or musical instrument with a line out: plug a cable into the output (like you see in the video) and plug it either directly into the computer's input or into a sound card, then use software to record it in realtime.
