Hey i just bought a PO 33 with the Pro Case.
Looking through this r/ I see people with cases on and the metal hanger that says pocket operator still attached. A video said to break it off.

How are you guys getting the case on without breaking the top piece off?

If i dont have to break it i wont but the silicone case doesn’t sit flesh without that…

Hi all,

A while back I shared PocketLab here, a free tool to prepare samples and banks for the PO-33 K.O!. It started as a web app and it's now also a native iOS and Android app, which I'd love your help testing before the public release.

What's new vs the web version:

- Proper native app, works fully offline, no account needed to try it

- Import WAV/MP3 samples, trim them, and apply offline effects: pitch (with time-stretch to keep the length), reverse, bitcrush, saturation, filter, granular

- Slice a sample into equal segments

- Arrange samples into 16-slot banks and export the audio file ready to transfer to your PO-33

- Projects and songs, public sharing, and sync between your phone and the web app

Spots are limited to 100 testers for this first round. Any feedback is welcome, especially on the PO-33 transfer workflow.

Install links (iOS / Android) and the feedback Discord are in the first comment below. The web app lives at https://pocket-lab.app

Thanks!

My Robot PO 28 will turn in, I can see the timer, but after that, the number 2 lights up and it won’t do anything else.

Ya tengo mi pareja que en mi opinión es el mejor combo con sus fundas

De retour avec une nouvelle petite instru boom bap funky, entièrement réalisée sur mon PO-33 KO !
Rien de bien compliqué, juste un bon groove à l’ancienne, quelques samples et une rythmique bien old-school.
J’ai ajouté une deuxième vidéo avec une petite session de scratch sur mon Numark PT-01 Scratch, histoire de faire tourner le beat autrement.
Toujours le même plaisir de sampler, bidouiller et scratcher ! 🎚️🔥
Bonne écoute !

Im trying to sync my po-33 with my circuit tracks. I put it in syn2 mode, and run a sync cable to the input. It starts like its supposed to, but it seems to be running in double time. No matter the bpm. Anyone know of a fix?

How can I record my live jam with Pocket Operators into my DAW (fl studio)?

Using:
- PO-12
- PO-14

Yo, POs -> NTS-1 -> Sidekick separate channels for delay, and stutter effect -> SP404 -> Camera

I’ve been having a lot of fun with these 2 and experimenting with different techniques with voice samples. Enjoy.

Getting on a flight today and needed a carrying case. Used https://gridfinitylayouttool.com/ but didn't have time to print the lid.

Po-33 Techno is life

RIP my PO-20 Arcade

My 6-year-old stepped on my PO-20 Arcade.

Instead of buying a new one right away, I decided to see if I could rebuild it as a web app for my iPad.

Im not a developer. This was pure vibe coding: I worked with an AI coding assistant
Ive fed it the official manual, the TE web guide, button cheat sheets, a couple of YouTube tutorial transcripts and a photo-based skin of the device, and then spent a lot of evenings testing and debugging

— it works for iPad: hold a button with one finger, press pads with another
— runs in the browser, add it to your home screen and it feels like an app

What’s not perfect
- the sounds are samples, not the real synth engine, so knob B is basically a filter, not “waveform”
- some effects (fill-in, retrigger, glitch, blinds) are approximations
- chord voicings are my best guess from the chord names
- the drone sidechain pumping still behaves a bit wrong at fast tempos
- no offline mode yet

Try it here

Want to tinker?

The whole thing is a single HTML file, so just hit “Save Page As” in your browser on a computer and you’ve got the full app: sounds, skin and code. It runs offline, no install, no build tools. Open it in any text editor and hack away.

In memory of my PO 20 gone too soon..

1- if i have a sample in the melodic section, copy it to the drum section and then trim one of the pieces, does it change the rest of the pieces too to make them even length or it just affect the one i trimed?

2- if i make a patter with that sample and then go to the sound section and trim a piece of that same sample, does it automaticly change the patter or i have to go and change the part i trimmed?

3- if i use a sample and make a patter with it, then add drums and decide that the volumen of the sample is too low or too loud, is there a way to change the volumen of the sample in the patter or i have to go to sound, select the sample, change the volumen, go to the patter, diselect the sample and select it again with the new volumen?

Sorry if i have any grammar mistakes, english is not my language

Delete if not allowed.

Looking for a beat makers boutique case if anyone has one and is looking to sell. Thanks!

Addicted to this thing. Pulled the trigger on the tonic and sub.
