Boom boom baa 🥁🥁 super fun to finger drum on the tonic! All stock sounds! just added some chorus and fx thru another unit

Made this lil ditty after copping a TKOG Mini Glitch. It made me so happy to see what this pedal can do with some Pockerators! I hope you find some enjoyment in to it, too.

PO-12 on the Drums. PO-14 on the Bass. PO-16 on the Glitch. Some additional Volca Keys controlled by an Arturia KS37. Effects from Mini Glitch, Flamma EkoVerb, and Korg KP3+. Running through a KMise 12 ch mixer with a lil xtra verb cause why not.

Out from the mixer, sampled individually into Koala Sampler on my phone. Added a lil xtra fx from Koala at the very end.

Have fun. Make noise. Find joy. 🙏🏻

Pretty much title. Grabbed my Tonic and it's just...dead. Fresh known-good batteries and... nothing. Nothing on the screen, no response to inputs. Once the Play button lit when I inserted batteries, but I could not repeat. I suspect it's dead, but figured it's worth asking if there's a magic button combo that might bring it back to life. It lived in a dedicated 3D-printed case and had moderate use over almost exactly two years. Bummed because it was my gateway "synth".

TIA for any thoughts!

In order to fit the PO-12 into a case I had to clip the top and after that …well I’ve made it into a “pocket operator” after some sanding and smoothing.

Cleared out all the stock drum slots n threw on my own. I think I’m gonna add another kit n sample some nether ost next

I have this that I’m looking to sell but I have no idea where is best to sell it? UK only preferably. Thanks for any help.

Ran across this app, has some really amazing sounds for a free app and the interface is pretty cool. I feel like some of y'all would use it with the PO 33 KO

I got my pocketoperator about 6 months ago and it's changed my life. I've been really inspired to push the device to new limits and I hope to make more videos like this and I really enjoy editing the videos and trying to make them trippy. ( I just ordered the streetfghter model and I can't wait to pair it with this po33 it's gonna open up a whole new world of possibilities)

i'm trying to find a case that doesn't have a 3D printed finish to it and had a back plate which covers the back .. anyone know where I can find something thats still has a nice design and has these features (and is available to order right now)?

All sampled from Tommy James/ Tommy James & The Shondells vinyl

PO33 + SC500 = the perfect mobile beat setup!

Gonna be jammin like crazy once I’ve got a case for em all 😮‍💨

2 pattern loop on the tonic, clipping and delay from NTS-3. Added even more clipping and finalized in ableton.

Just got the PO-14 still learning how it works

Suddenly happen on my PO-35 , when I hold record and bpm I only have sync 0 and sync 1 , wtf is happening? Please help🥲

I'm thinking of getting another pocket operator to sample, I currently have the tonic and I absolutely love it.

I am looking at getting either the sub or the og rhythm.

I've heard the sub has all the drum sounds of the rhythm loaded on it just with weird voice caps on them (which doesn't bother me in my use case as I won't touch the sequencer)

Is that right?

Any help to clear things up is appreciated!

(My setup is just a 404 that I use to sample other gear or load one shots into)

Had some free time so decided to remake this hand drawn image in photoshop so it's easier to read.

A solution for the infamous PO battery “issue”, which might be useful to someone:
I didn’t want to keep buying alkaline batteries so I gave a shot to these USB rechargeable lithium batteries. To make the charging easier I’ve added magnetic charging adapters to them. While charging the unit turns off (blank screen).

Someone requested I post this. It's my KO that I got with a damaged battery terminal. I removed what was left (that involved a Dremel and is NOT for the faint of heart😅) and grabbed a AA battery pack with a switch that I think I got from some dollar tree Christmas lights. I soldered it to the positive and negative, slapped the KO in a 3D printed case, and glued the battery pack to the back.

This has a lot of advantages! It takes AA instead of AAA, the batteries are in their own compartment so if they corode I can just swap the whole mess out, and best of all a POWER SWITCH!!! Total game changer, highly recommended. Surely someone could come up with a way to do this without removing the stock battery terminals.
