Pocket Operators are a range of quirky, 8-bit synths, drum machines and samplers that look like calculators and sound like an old ZX Spectrum computer game. They all run on AAA batteries and feature a built-in speaker, LCD display and 16-step sequencer, but each model offers a totally unique tonal flavour.
So if you we're a little confused by all the models and were you wondering how to choose the right Pocket Operator for you, this video is the ultimate Teenage Engineering Pocket Operator comparison and buying guide. We take a look at every model currently available, splitting them up into categories including drum machines, synthesisers and samplers, point out the unique features on each model and demonstrate their sonic capabilities.

    Another huge difference between the Robot po-28 and the megman po-128 is the megaman lets you use three programmed layers and one live instead of the robot’s limited 2 layers and one live

    The Robot has two programmed layers (melodic and drum) plus one to play melodic live. The Megaman has in addition a layer for bass sounds, wich is apparently an extra layer, but the fact is when you try to play live over them, the same programmed layer (melodic or bass) is muted. The Robot instead can play live melodic over melodic sequence.

    Po32 Tonic is so good that I purchased 3 of them in the month following my first purchase. 3 for various rigs, 5 for friends. Magnus Lidström’s is an amazing dev. One spin around his plugin microtonic and I knew that every producer in my phone book as getting a po-32 for Christmas. He also made the CwO filter on op-1. Sonic Charge x TE forever

    The PO 20 Arcade has the chord mode which allows you to write some really great sounding patterns with the chiptune voices. This would contrast well with the PO 33 KO sampler. The two synced together would make a feature packed combination with endless possibilities. I have the PO 20 Arcade, PO 33 KO and PO 35 Speak.

    £10?!?!? You're not asking for much are you? 😉 They aren't 'cheap', but given the amount of tech they contain and how portable they are, they are certainly worth a bit more than £10. You can barely get a takeaway for that amount money these days, never mind something like these bits of kit.

So you can sync them threw a beat match. I have done this with DJing my PO patterns using the pocket mixer.
