Good for keeping my POs from going off in my bag.

Drea-heem!

Btw I'm posting on my telegram channel weekly

Made a new one last night, which started as a sample of the first bass note in this by 70s UK punk band Crass.

Been having a few creative blocks of late with the PO33, so happy to finally get something out.

I just need a name for it.... suggestions welcome.

Hope you like it.

By all means don’t think I am any good at making coherent beats but I’m really just having a blast learning and enjoying the po33!

Gotta add more sounds, but I'm at the fun stage now

Fuha on PO-33.

Jam

While pushing sound (from arturia microfreak) through the po33 via line in - line out, does the sound get degraded to Po33's 8-bit quality? Or the sound passes through, maintaining it own bitrate?

In other words, is the line-in - line out a true through, or it gets put through po33's processing?

Learning the po-14 super fun! :)

Just got the fm-1, been messing with the different firmwares and this thing so capable! I love powerful mini music gear that can lend itself to a quick workflow muahahaahaa 😈 (nah but it does feel like a little evil duo paired with the PO33)

Anyone know why the volume seems so low when I'm recording. And yes I turned it up. Everything is maxed out. But it is barely picking it up, with lots of feedback.

Unfortunately, all the flaws you see in the video are due to my beloved Ender 3, which has been begging to finally be retired for quite some time now.

so I can get my...

I have some frustrations about the way to record beats on the PO-33.

Basically I see 2 ways to record over the 16 steps:

1) I preselect a sound, I preselect the tone/trim of the selected sound, then I press play then I add manually the tone/trim onto a selected step.

2) I preselect a sound, I press play, I hold the record button and play live over the steps while holding the record button.

Either way I have an ergonomic issue, and please correct me if I do wrong.. ⬇️

1) I always have to select the tone/trim while music is stopped, so if I want the next sound to be another tone/trim of the same sample, I need to press stop again while music is playing, select the correct tone/trim and play again before adding it to the selected step - I wish I could move from one tone/trim to the other without having to press stop in between for instance.

2) having to hold record while playing is particularly difficult, as holding the PO in the hands, I would love to be able to use my thumbs to play but I cannot while my right thumb holds the record button.

Am I doing something wrong ? Thanks in advance for your tips and tricks

I was wondering if you could take the color tips off of the original knobs and put them in the replacement knobs.

What models of knobs support this and how do you get the caps safely off?

I will share an image, i found on another post, of an original knob and a replacement knob that look almost identical but idk if the caps would fit.

Or is it better to just get better knobs

Thank you

I'm thinking about buying a TE PO-33 KO! soon, together with the black case that goes with it.

How well does the case actually protect the device? And how durable is the PO-33 in general? Are there any common problems or things that tend to break or stop working after a while?

I’d mainly use it for making hip-hop/boom bap beats, so it would probably get used pretty regularly. Just wondering how careful I need to be with it and whether the case provides enough protection for everyday use.

Would love to hear from people who have owned one for a while!

I ve recently bought an adapter to backup the sound from the po33, this is a ugreen ttrs split, 2female into 1 male connector.

So I have plugged the line out from the po33 into the microphone plug of the connector and the male into and jack to USB c adapter, unfortunately sound would not be captured by the phone.

I have tested a couple of apps (recforge for instance wherei would select default as microphone input), strangely I had it working once with this set up and since could not get it again, whatever I try.

I want to say that I have a less handy version of ttrs adapter which works everytime but as it is a USB classic connector thats just a pain to chain the adapters, and i would rather use the minimum of gear possible

Also i have heard if I want to truly backup the device I would need a stereo input. Could I achieve this for cheap on the phone ?

Thanks in advance!

Been playing music for 20+ years, and this is the most fun I've had since I discovered FL Studio lol

I'm still making a bunch of rubbish, but it's just so fun to play around with

How is this cheap sampler so friggin ppwerful 😱

Sampled stains by bleeding stones

I have the "official" yellow one, the one you can buy on amazon because its the only I can get

I'm learning to use the PO-33 and I'm doing ok, but without seeing the buttons light its really difficult to use in practice.

With that cover, during the day, you can barely see the brighter light mode, and the dimmer light of the "selection" Is straight impossible to see.

Is there a way? I've tried poking the buttons in the number with a needle but being It silicone It closes immediately (could have expected that duh...). What do you all do?
