Using PO-33 K.O! from Teenage Engineering , complete in depth guide tutorial.

[@GrischaEkart]

Thorough manual, as always! You forgot to mention copying melodic samples to drum kits. This will slice the "melodic" sample into 16 evenly spaced pieces. Great for beat chopping.

[@vincenzogiambusso]

Great vid but I agree, this is a major feature worth mentioning and stressing it

[@VindAvSorg]

so, how can you do that? also can you copy drum samples to melodic?

[@GrischaEkart]

@@VindAvSorg its the other way around: you sample, e.g., a 16 beat long audio into a melodic slot and then copy that into a kit. It will auto slice evenly.

[@DigitalDZ7]

​@@GrischaEkartyou can copy it both ways, actually. You can copy a melodic sample to a drum track and it will auto chop it, and you can copy one of the slices to one of the melodic tracks and play them back chromatically.

[@QuietNightRiot]

@@DigitalDZ7you wish it was chromatically ;) unless you can play with the pitch knob precisely. Via buttons it just plays a pentatonic scale

[@knobs_matrix]

You are the best with tutorials in YT. Everything in simple, clean and in logical way. Thank you and respect Man 👍

[@XNBeatsMusic]

Thank you brother. it's a family show, no previous experience required so I try to be as clear as possible. Thanks for the support.

[@groovelove3361]

This is the imho, CLEANEST tutorial & explanation for po33. The callouts really help as well. Had po33 for 2 years, but I forget all the workflows in between bouts of using it. Seeing it all in one condensed tutorial was great. Thank you!

[@JarradF]

Just got my PO today and this is absolutely perfect man. So easy to follow and intuitive. Thank you so much coffee on the way

[@robertwilliamson8711]

Thanks for this. Its really thorough and great for the old guys/non-digital natives.

[@XNBeatsMusic]

Glad you enjoyed it! Well, I am not Young either. This is a crash course, not a review, not an unboxing.

[@DeleteTheWeak]

I’ve watched loads of tutorials on this and this one is the best. Amazing job and deserves a patreon.

[@ur6817]

Thank you very much. That´s the best PO-33K.O. Tutorial on KZbin 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

[@KM23G]

This guide is awesome, thank you so much. If you need to do a factory reset to default: hold pattern + write while inserting batteries.

[@XNBeatsMusic]

Thanks for the tip!

[@christianstrums]

omg the A/B knobs on changing pitch mid sequence. THANK YOU

[@lofi_Insomnia_]

just got a po33 and this saves my life. thank you bro

[@portveinanapa]

This manual is really brilliant! Having po-33, you do watch this once and become 200% smarter. Thanks, guy!

[@jakerayson8976]

Thanks. Amazing job with PO-33 KO tutorial

[@XNBeatsMusic]

No, Thank you brother for keeping the coffee flowing :)

[@CmdrMic]

OMG, this has got to be THE BEST, most complete PO-33 tutorial run thru vids ever. Even better than Jacob - Haq Attaq (which is saying a lot). You Rule! Thanks.

[@XNBeatsMusic]

Wow, thanks !!! I really invest a lot of effort in doing this. Thanks for the comment, I'll try to keep it up :)

[@valueape888]

Thank you so much! Your perfectly clear instructions are more than just a huge help, you've unlocked this thing for me.

[@erickozokas]

I’m new to this and just found the pocket operator. The KO is going to be my first piece of kit. Super rad video. Thanks for all the details and for speaking slow enough for a novice to follow.

[@AllanParkin]

Excellent video mate. Had my PO for over 3 years and I still learnt some new stuff from this. Cheers👍

[@asquareportal]

So helpful, you are the first video to introduce me to my PO 33, so thank you!

[@vaaksvakuums]

you are the best tutorialist on YT, your tutorial videos are like wow, your explanation style is so cool and understandable.

[@gru_day]

Your tutorials are a must whenever I buy new stuff. I have had POKO once for a year or so and still u showed me new things. I am going to welcome POKO once again on my desk. Sold it for KOALA sampler but, as much apps are fun, POKO is more fun somehow. THX!

[@Wareniki235]

This was the best PO tutorial ever. I always wanted one but I was so scared I just wouldn’t get it. Seems like it’s just learning and remembering lmao. It’s official: I will def get one!

[@pondersomepete1349]

DUDE THANK YOU I PLAY GTR SO I HAD TO WATCH AT SLOW MANY TIMES LOL

[@thecureish]

Fantastic guide, if you have a link I can make a donation or give a tip I'd like to because I'm up and running with this within an hour of getting it

[@tylerpacheco4886]

Is there a way to turn off the metronome off when for the pattern I turned it on and can’t figure it out how to turn it off

[@bushmann9272]

awesome tutorial thx! too bad y microphone is broken

[@XNBeatsMusic]

Thank you !!! Oh that is bad. Well, you can still use it or hope you get it fixed.

[@NitroNilz]

Maybe plug in an external microphone in input hole. If not directly then via a phone or other device.

[@pendragnx]

very cool.. I want one of these now.. lol

[@michapatron871]

Great guide! I have one question: how to change quantity of loops in chain? For examle from 8 to 4?

[@noodlessoul8356]

Can you do unquantized live recording or panning? I wish... Great tuto 😊

[@abcd-zh9om]

Does this have a metronome? I wanna program everything live in the sequencer.

[@TheRobotKiddo]

hi, newbie question. Is there a simple and cheap way to record the songs from the pocket operator to a computer or an iphone? without using an audio interface?

[@TylerWoodisawesome]

to record into your iphone, you kind of need an audio interface. thankfully, they're super cheap - get a "behringer u-control UCA222 USB audio interface' - it's $9.99 right now. you'll also need a wire to connect from your pocket operator output jack (3.5mm) to stereo rca jack. that's it. this audio interface is nice because it allows you to listen to what you're recording, while you're recording it.

[@TheRobotKiddo]

@@TylerWoodisawesome oh thank you so much, this really helps :)

[@TylerWoodisawesome]

@@TheRobotKiddo the good thing about that cheap interface i mentioned is that it doesn't require extra power - you just plug it into your iPhone and it works. other fancier interfaces require plugging into a powered usb hub so you'd be tethered to a wall outlet..

[@TheRobotKiddo]

@@TylerWoodisawesome Thank you very much, this solution seems perfect to me, even to connect it directly to my PC, thanks for taking the time to answer, greetings from Mexico

[@TylerWoodisawesome]

@@TheRobotKiddo yep! it can also connect directly to PC. However, in my experience, if you're using software with many tracks and plugins, etc, that little interface can get overwhelmed.. but it's the perfect little interface for iPhone or smaller projects on PC. so yes, recording pocket operator to PC will work great with this.. keep in mind, if you use it with your iPhone, you'll also need a lightning to USB adapter too. i promise that's the last adapter and wire you need! haha

[@spzcero]

¡Gracias!

[@XNBeatsMusic]

No, gracias to you !!! Thanks for the contribution, it all helps to keep it going and get more coffee :)

[@noodlessoul8356]

Can you change the Vol of a single step in a pattern?

phenomonously well explained! thank you so much..

Man thank you so much again. I just bought this trying to learn. The directions are terrible. I would be lost without you. 🏆

[@XNBeatsMusic]

Yeah, is not a super fun and clear read. Glad you liked it.

[@j1d7s]

Wow, this was a crystal clear explanation without any jargon and without any fluff, everything was to the point! Thank you!!

[@XNBeatsMusic]

Thanks again for the help.

[@nathancarpenter1118]

Great job! You are a wonderfully clear teacher. Nice and slow which I need to learn this tool. I would say this is a mini op-1. Does so many of the core features. Very cool. Thank you.

[@liavch1]

People like you makes this world a better place You deserve every cent from your youtube monetization Thank you ♥

[@donaldswan1587]

Knowing youtube, that's prob about 3c !

[@cristobaldion]

Cool stuff, although I just finished an entire album using only the PO133, I still learned a few tricks here and there. Thanks!!

[@JohnAlchemy]

Excellent tutorial on the PO! Just a tip from my side. You can copy a drum slice to a melodic slot and play it chromatically 👊

[@brianhuxtable4026]

Great tutorial,great teacher . Best po33 vid hands down ,100%. Thankyou, needed this🎯👌🤜💥🤛

[@ChristosNikolisOfficial]

Cheers to you, because your video rocks dude 🍻

How to delete all patterns

[@FACES918]

I made a beat a couple days ago, It was amazing everything’s been fine, really getting the hang of it. Untill I cleared/deleted the beat to start working on something new, I no longer have any sounds, or maybe I just pressed something wrong by accident, if anybody has answers that’d be awesome🤙🏽, it’s the same device but I can’t seem to hear the drums or other sounds when I hold the button and skim through them. Thank you💯

[@ElvisTheRealKing]

Try a factory reset: Remove (one of) the batteries, hold pattern- and write-button and put in the batterie(s) again. Then you´ll see "rst" on the right corner. The RESET is done 🙂

[@FACES918]

@@ElvisTheRealKing thank man, I ended up doing a hard reset and getting it down, better late then never brother! I APPRECIATE IT💯🎶 keep up the great content and I hope you have a dope ass day bro💪🏽

[@GodsPoetryProductions]

I just got the po 33 ko today and this is the only video that I need to learn it. Thanks for sharing. I took a screen shot of all the green box of information that you provided of what the button does for quick reference.

[@baconsledge]

Best tutorial I have seen. Thank you!

Thank you Mr/Mrs BaconSledge :)

good job M8, Thanks!

Thank you !!!

[@EmpireofFlies]

PERFECT TUTORIAL DOES EXIST GUYS!!

[@sporkee]

Thank you for the video, it really helped me get my head around this thing. I just followed along on my own PO while watching (and re-watching) and now it feels natural to use. I'm sure I'll forget stuff so I'm bookmarking this video for reference. Thanks again, cheers!

[@godzillionaire2671]

Great tutorial. This vid is pretty much all you need to know about the po33. Well Appreciated sir and thank you kindly

[@eugenejakovlev3918]

Tencho:D

[@XNBeatsMusic]

hahaha

[@thetzone6193]

is there a factor reset. i can’t find sounds or don’t have any sound in banks at all.

[@ElvisTheRealKing]

Remove (one of) the batteries, hold pattern- and write-button and put in the batterie(s) again. Then you´ll see "rst" on the right corner. The RESET is done 🙂

[@catherines.2955]

This is one of the best tutorials I've seen so far! Thanks so much for the great explanation.

[@bigbizz118]

I deleted everything and it's still says full when I hit the record button to melody any suggestions

[@bigbizz118]

Do your trim jum number constantly after the first use

[@paulcollins6961]

WOW just got mine all I have to say is WOW and WOW again.

[@XNBeatsMusic]

Glad you enjoyed it Paul !!. Thanks for the comment.

Time to panic

[@linlidong-f9x]

thanksssss so much for the tutorial!

[@carstboh3332]

Thanks for the tutorial, really well done and explained very well :) I would like to ask a question: is it possible to delete a Motion Sequence? Is it possible to delete FX from the pattern, is the same thing possible for the Motion Sequence? Thanks

[@pockettrax]

Yes, you can erase FX from patterns (same logic as the motion sequencer).

[@justinwilliam4644]

Dam good tutorial

[@beatnikcafe]

Thanks for the tutorial. Is it possible to use the PO33 as a midi sound module, sequencing and or playing the sounds from an external sequencer/controller. I’d love to sequence melodic patterns on my Digitakt’s midi tracks and use the PO as an additional sound source, and also it would be great to be able to sequence some drum patterns the same way. Is this possible? What other adapters would I need?

[@erickrick3901]

Holy shit, can’t beileve I didn’t know about retriggering this entire time! Or the length and auditioning different drum slices with the A and B knobs. Def gonna up my workflow

[@alfonsor7224]

I connected it to some self-powered ones and it sounds very weak. I connected it to a sound card connected to a PC and you can't hear anything and I connected it to an electric guitar amp and it sounds weak and terribly bad. I don't know what to do now, I bought it for a small live performance and I don't know what I should do. If someone can help me I would appreciate it very much.

[@michapatron871]

It`s possible to kindly ask You to make similar tutorials of Roland Aira S-1 and T-8? Would be great. Your guides are the best! :)

[@loopdigga86]

There are a few good tutorials but this is absolutely a great starting point if you're new. Get a pen and notebook ready.
