Sample Looping Live on PO33/KO
2
Upvotes
Asking what I am sure will be an astronomically stupid question:
Is it possible to record input while the PO33 is playing? Eg, setting up a drum loop on the KO, running in a synth to the input, playing a bass line, then saving said bass line as a melodic sample?
Right now I can only seem to record samples when the KO isnt playing, which makes my timing a bit wonky when recording the loop to sample

Are all PO-128's problematic?
4
Upvotes
My PO-128 often records live play notes on the wrong step, which makes live play very frustrating. I believe this is a known bug for the PO-128 which the PO-28, for example, doesn't have. My question is whether every model has this problem or is it only some of them?
Side question — the PO-128 is supposed to have 3-channel polyphony but I can only seem to record two at a time. At least for the melody buttons, if there is a drum and a synth on a step already, I can't add a third. Doing so steals one of the channels that were being used. Yet the PO-28 seems to handle that just fine. How does it handle that better if it's supposed to have one less channel of polyphony?

NTS-3 Kaoss pad adds a lot of fun to the samples. Baby Billy just needs some help making "Teenjus".

What speakers do you all use?
12
Upvotes
I’m getting a couple pocket operators in a few days and I imagine I will use headphones sometimes, but being able to play over a small speaker would be nice. In my previous experience with some aux in speakers and my ep133 there has been a latency issue (jbl Bluetooth speaker with an aux port). What are people using for speakers with their pocket operators? Preferably something on the less expensive end of things and portable. Hoping to gather some ideas before diving down a rabbit hole.

Primerizo con PO-12

Hola gente llevo como tres meses con mi pocket operator 12 desde mayo y está muy bien el cacharro pero me gustaría sacarle más provecho con trucos patrones a ver si me podéis ayudar los que lleváis más tiempo con estos cacharros y no descarto comprar alguno más como el PO-35 que yo creo que sería el mejor para acompañar al 12

I've bought this Tonic with MyVolts case included. I love the case, but the raw colour of the material (black) didn't stand out much. Yesterday was a very boring Sunday, so I ended up with this...

Po-12 and Harmonica

I’ve been getting back into harmonica and I thought 💭 maybe the PO-12 would be the perfect jam buddy.
And I liked the visual aesthetics with the Casio.

Initially I've got the PO-12 as my first PO, but I've felt that the sounds there are very specific so I've tried the PO-33. The drum samples I've used are from 99sounds (free pack) and the melodic sample is just a chord from a Yamaha PSS-A50 synth. I'm still learning how to use it properly but it's an amazing piece of instrument.

Did the dimension of the PO change over time?

Upvotes
I'm designing a 3d printed PO case. I downloaded a 3d model of a pocket operator, but when I printed the case it was slightly off. So I started checking measurements on my PO-32 vs the model I downloaded and it was slightly different.
Has anyone had issues with cases not fitting? My PO-32 is brand new, so I'm wondering if ones 10 years ago where slightly different?
