I have the PO-33 and PO-35. The PO-35 really shines when you give it speech (your own or from a sample) rather than singing, because it turns the speech into a synth that you can play chromatically with all sorts of interesting effects applied. I love the vocoder, synth, and fifth effects.

Great video. I'm huge fan/ user of the PO-33 and definitely recommend it if you're only going to get one. The only caveat is that it requires getting really good at sampling in order to generate sounds as clear and balanced as the ones that come pre-loaded on it or the other POs. If you clip or record too low you might not get the rich D&B sounds you hear in other users' recordings. Thx for the vid and keep up the great work!

Nice to watch videos about PO in 2023. I bought my first PO-33 few weeks ago and have started diving into functionality

[kathleencoveny]

Amazing how a mini pocket operator such as these ...can pack such an enormous punch .. cheers and thank you for assessing the unlimited capabilities of these miniature beasts ..

[tylerwatt]

My KO arrived last night and I'm still feeling a little bit lost, so this video has been hugely helpful. Cheers!

[AmarylisFlow]

I really want a Pocket Operator and then I play around with Koala Sampler app and can’t justify getting any of them. They’re cool as hell though.

[mo-draws]

You just made me wanna get my POs out again and relearn to use them. :)

For my top PO list I replaced the 35 Speak with the 14 Sub, the 35 don't really vibes for me. I purchased the 133 Street Fighter almost 2 years ago and this year I bought the 12, 14, 28, 32 and it's been a blast playing with them, only the 28 Robot is a bit to dry for me, but I still find it fun. Thanks for all your PO videos, you've been an inspiration and life saver when I decided what POs to buy!

[leewightman]

I love the po ko33 its a great little sampler for what it is it can sound great if u record it into a daw or multitrack and add eq compression and duplicate the tracks and pan them both.. i like talking my ko out when im walking so i can work on a beat while im on the move iv used it with other gear to and it always does the job

[fleecefoxes]

I've only tried a friends Tonic so far and was thinking how it would sound like together with Rhythm - so I am really glad they were in your top picks. Might pick up both!

[djnodj]

I'd give Sub a solid place in that group, depending on what one likes. Also it seems that with Microtonic and PO32, you might not need PO12 Rhythm? And thanks for all the vids and tutorials like this one, SUPER HELPFUL. (And since you chose the entire "Metal Series", did you ever wonder if there was a PO-34? Maybe didn't make it out of the concept or lab stage?)

[mopanda]

video encouraged me to bust out my factory and noodle around. I was a little disappointed originally I couldn't program synths AND play over them at the same time but I hadn't really explored the keystyles and there's a lot of variety you can play into a pattern once you've got it down. Super funky!

[erichutchinsws]

I came by here while relearning my my Pocket Operators. Just ordered my Woovebox and realized how crazy it will be to link them all! 😎.

[SpeccyMan]

I have the PO-32 and the PO-33 and I will definitely be adding the PO-12 at some point soon. The PO-35 is not for me, so I'm thinking the sub or the arcade as number 4.

[neguchi]

Here's a tip: 2:05 - You don't need to hold both. You can hold Record and just tap the number key to start recording. Please don't use the conserved energy for evil.

[Dork]

PO-35 Speak is my favorite right now because it produces sounds that I don’t know how to produce with any of my other hardware. Just instant wild.

I’ve owned about half a dozen POs in the past few years. My PO-12 Rhythm died of a static discharge something something and I can’t even throw it away because I loved it so much. 😢

[CargoShorts]

Hey there! I've been watching your PO vids and am super intrigued by them. I'm coming from the world of guitar playing and recently got real fascinated by exploring ways to create music without my guitar, and then hopefully be able to combine the two for some cool pieces eventually. I have no experience with POs or really even sequencers//samplers and want to learn, but also not be too quickly bogged down by the learning curve. I want to work my way up to making some cool/complex pieces, but starting out, I'd love to be able to just quickly get some sounds and piece together some ideas. Which PO or maybe even PO pair would you recommend for a beginner? Cheers!

[dumafuji]

Nice choices. But you know you can load “patches” into the Tonic through microtonic or audio transfer files, ya? Maybe I missed that part? It’s a flexible beat tool.

I do like the sub a bunch too.

[leewightman]

The p.o KO 33 is the damage for hip-hop and dnb even funky house anything sample based I record my track into the tascam eq it and add compression and then I add some stuff from a synth or keyboards or even more stuff from the p.o and it sounds just as good as an MPC well if it's lofi obviously trance and stuff ain't gonna sound legit but people think chip choon when it comes to the p.o but they can sound really good well the k.o anyways and the workflow is simple definitely worth the money
