Teenage Engineering making something CHEAPER than all the others?? FFS what's going on in this world lol. For 3 hundreds... TE will tear the market. I for one gon buy that on sight!
Please, I don't know how long you have been looking for the killer of the SP404mk2, but stop looking for it, there is nothing better than SP404mk2 in its price range, that thing made with LEGO pieces, it doesn't look like it can withstand hits from a beatmaker professional like Jay Dilla or DJ Premier right? Ok, it's a nice, very portable toy, it samples at 24 bits but only 64MB is nothing, I'm afraid it's very absurd to record at 24 bits in such a ridiculous memory. A USB or SDcard reader would have been great The best killer of a SP404 mk2 is a one future SP404 mk3.
$300 is tempting, but I think my brain has issues with any workflow where I can’t see the notes or song patterns/phrases/blocks. I never got on well with the POs either for that reason, unfortunately.
This is small enough, battery operated with 20+ hours of usage that you take this with you to the park, on plane, a vacation, trip, bathroom ( please, no recording sounds from the bathroom ) overnight whatever you wish. Just think, you're on your phone, your listening to something and you get a creative strike of lighting and you jack in, record your sample and make a beat around it. I think the $299 price is a clue. I think all the other new devices they are planning are going to be upgrades with much better pricing. I'm already saving for the next device. I've always been a fan just couldn't afford their products, no, I am hoping I can.
@@all.day.day-dreamer I work very well with the Dirtywave M8, and expect I would work as well with the PE Tracker Mini, due to being able to see the song and notes laid out in some form. The P.O.s stress my working memory and don’t jive with how my brain wants to do whole songs. I’ve also always been more of a programmer than a finger drummer, though that could be down to lack of practice. And, too late, I sampled at least one thing from the bathroom. (It was a shower door)
I don't know, the 404 screen doesn't compare to this screen no matter how big it is. Being able to edit samples by looking at and zooming in on the audio waves means that the 404 cannot be killed by this equipment. That said, it looks very nice and at a good price. Without a doubt they will sell many of them
I don’t know about 404 killer. MKII is almost a daw in a box. For someone like me who hasn’t got to buy the 404 and who loves the po33, this device is perfect.
@@Reggi_Sample without getting into semantics about what does and doesn’t make a DAW, what I’m trying to say is 404MKII has a lot more features and capability than this new KO, but I still intend on making full tracks with this new KO.

It’s one of the more cheap samplers and has a more direct and limited workflow which helps me focus on cranking out tracks.
It’s clickbait fam. She said the same thing about the new korg kaoss replay. Watch she will most likely make a follow up video “I was wrong about the ep-133” within the next couple days/weeks. Just like she did with the korg kaoss replay. People are getting these already and the faders are already broken.
I think it's a 7-segment LED display like on a digital alarm clock, rather than an OLED. That may be one reason they were able to hit this price point and battery consumption. But maybe I'm wrong.
It’s another shift show. I watched the koo koo tutorial and it’s menu system is very dependent on endless shift commands. I’m a big one button per function person so it fell apart quickly for me.👽✌️
I’ll take back what I wrote and eat a large portion of humble pie. Just watched True Cuckoo’s tutorial and it changed my mind. This is KO 2000 and more.
I came *this* close to buying a 404mk2 in the last couple of days but pricing,l ack of availability combined with concerns over workflow not being intuitive enough for me meant I didn't pull the trigger. So glad I didn't. Gonna get me one ASAP.
Yeah I feel ya! I had the SP404 MK2 since launch. It's a behemoth, capable of everything under the sun, a real marvel, but geez, getting a track done on that thing just would take me forever. The flow was so convoluted, annoying. and just not intuitive for anything. Watching Cuckoo and everyone else just ... have fun with this device made me realize that was what I was really missing anymore in my portable production. After reading over the manual twice, watching multiple videos, and asking people on elektronauts a ton of questions, I decided this fits me so much more. So I packed up the SP404 MKII and got him ready for its new owner. Sold. I see so many people rushing out to buy this. Don't horde gear people, don't just mindlessly consume. Read up and purchase, and downsize. If somethings not fitting in your flow and you are excited for the KO II, get rid of it before purchasing.
I ordered one because i know they will sell out quickly, and if its not what you was hoping for will be very easy to sell it for what you payed .So that was no brainer .
You should have kept the 404. You went from pro equipment to a toy. Me personally I would not trade none of my current samplers for it. I will get one and add it to my inventory of sampling gear. But all those built in cheesy sounds that everbody will have is getting wiped clean.
It seems TE has finally realized that everyone is not going to buy a 2k piece of equipment that can fit in their pocket. Christmas card.This is nice, but I already have a 404mkll, MPC One and Maschine +. I don’t need another sampler, what I need is a new fretless bass and the Take 5 synth. Trying to my GAS under control 😂😂
They should have sent you one. Your gear talk is a totally different perspective than the super technical nerds who have a lot of overlap in perspective.
This does not looks like a Screen a screen at all. Looks more like a Led Matrix, but instead of "leds" you have icons as pixels. And a AlphaNumeric Segmented Display at the center. But it looks gorgeous this way. :)
I don't like TE all that much, but I don't hate this new one. I won't buy it personally, but I don't think this a slap in the face. I don't think gear being cheap is necessarily good either. Having something that really matters to you and inspires you is better than just one of those.
Gear being "cheap" (its 300 bucks, thats not cheap) just makes it accesible for those of us who have this kind of hobby and dedication but not much cash in the bank.
The roland sp 404 mk2 has its own a cult following which makes it a legendary machine and Roland as a manufacturer has been around for years so I don't think the comparison matches it .. and Roland will definitely be watching no doubt they'll be an sp404 mk 3 💯🔥🔥🔥🪬
Unfortunately EP133 is not what I wanted. It reminds me of MPC 500 with its 12 pads and slider that you assign effects to. Even its workflow looks like updated oldschool MPC workflow that defo will be liked by MPC heads as there are 4 layers (MPC Banks) and Scenes (MPC sequences). MPC 500 was alsobattery powered.I'm sure MPC 500 was the thing that inspired TE to make this device and I kinda loved my MPC 500 but TE133 offers more immediate access to its functions. All in all very nice device. Definitely worth the money!
People might wanna know that this thing comes with 64mb of memory. 64. That's... 6 min and 22 seconds of 16 bits 48kHz CD quality audio (and I've been told that's the only option). To put things into perspective, almost 20 years ago when Yamaha released the DTX multipad, it came with the same amount and people rioted. So... if you thought there was a catch... well this is it.
64mb of 16 bit 46 kHz sound should be 11.5 minutes of mono or 5 minutes 45 seconds of stereo sound. I wish companies making samplers would always state total sampling length from the beginning. There are calculators online you can use to figure it out.
The most surprising thing about this is I don't have to sell an eyeball to buy one 😂 Looks grand though, looking forward to see what other PO's they're going to jazz up.
Hyped. The only downside is the memory but if it’s as easy to back up as the opz, it won’t be a huge issue. Wish there was expandable storage though for sure.
@@Blogspierre You can do 20 seconds in length per pad. But you can't have 20 seconds on EVERY pad, is what I meant to say. That would give it 16 minutes of sample time, and in no way is that possible with 64MB of memory..
and YES!!! i've been looking for a sampler that is guitarist friendly, looking forward to videos when you get yours. i've been looking at this all day, in australia we get stung with a lot of import fees and crappy shipping rates, $299 is pretty good price, but for me in sydney thats about $456 and since we are out of the EU there will be some import fees, so this could be close to $600 at the door. considering the PO's are around $150-170 here this is still relatively cheap since a op1 is $2500-3000
@@thethrillofnoskill4521 yeah i noticed late last night my usual stores had them for "pre order" as they're waiting on shipment. to be honest, i thought it would be closer to $600 so $549 is better i suppose. but year we get stung hard with import fees and hsipping. i feel bad for the guys in new zealand, they sometimes get double shipping cause it hits out shores first then goes onto them
What does it do that's actually interesting? 4 triple A batteries? It looks cool but a musical instrument is for making music at the end of the day, isn't it... I'm not seeing it. Personally I'm tired of these overhyped products that don't offer any musical value. WOW ITS CHEAP SO I HAVE TO BUY IT! Actually, you don't. And 300 dollars is actually not "cheap" at all. 2 dollars is cheap. And these people say they're anti-consumerism... seems pretty consumerist to me.
I actually have one. It’s excellent on the fly making music and natural when you get used to it. Using as master device with another analog device and guitar. Yes I had to fix my slider, first run. Working perfect and using bar style knob on slider which is much better and protects. Cheers
You technically don't have to buy anything. Musicians need to understand when they're being advertised to and resist missing out on new tech. Especially when their current mixes / productions aren't the best they can be. It's not consumerist for a company to release a product like wtf.
"Wav" audio (44.1, 16) is 10 mb /stereo minute... so depends a lot of the actual sampling stats. At "wav" thats a little more than 6 min... but that's stereo also, mono it's already 12+... I can see the device holding 16 minutes of samples... but probably not something you'd want super long melodic samples in, think yer right it will still be situated towards percussive one-shot type sampling. Anyone who's messed with a Volca Sample for any length of time though knows that Morpheus' speech to Neo still applies. "Some rules can be bent, others can be broken!"
I was almost going to pre-order this through their amazon listing. I paused this vid to take a break and do a short workout and 30 minutes later now it’s not available. They saved me $300 at least.
Neat and very much designed and marketed to get public opinion back off the hate train, its certainly what I would have done. juxtaposed with everything they’ve done, turning turned off folks back on in an instant, timed and priced in end of November to take full advantage of their outsourced manufacturing and get everyone talking.
I wonder if it will properly sync to an external clock.. The 404mk2 stumbles around like a teenager after his first four loko. It doesn't seem to affect event but it's been driving people nuts for at least the last year
Ordered it as soon as i saw it this morning. Ive been using the pocket operators as well as the OP-Z for quite some time. Weird but happy they are $299 & hope it can replace my 404
Jade come on.... all the te "economic" line of products have tons of quality build issues, starting with the opz (the banana effect, retriggers, etc..) and ending with all the po (a lot of them stop working after a year) i know its not the same with the more premium line but lets be honest. I mean i like it, but i also like the opz and never got it, we should ask for more quality build and materials from te... remember you can get a sp404 for the same price so.... a lot of factors in the play not only the beautifull desing and hipster look
Color me shocked. I saw the announcement of the product, thought it was beautiful, but didn’t look any further because I expected it was going to be astronomically priced.
K.O may land some body blows . . .but it’s no sp 404 killer. The effects, being able to control the Koala sampler on iOS. The O.P is a TOY compared to the SP. i own both
I haven't seen trimming like this since the roland ms1, sort of akin to byte offset, but i don't know if i would enjoy it as much as the simplicity of the po-33. which i guess is still going so eh.
JAJAJAJAJAA....Cada aparato tiene sus ventajas y desventajas con tantas caracteristicas y funciones que hay y existen...Bien animo gentes y vayamos todos con alegrias y felicidades...
Yeah about that JWeezy....got mine yesterday and the fader port is broken already... everything else is top notch, but I still choose my SP 404MK2 over it
Thanks Jade for this video :) Actually, for me it's clearly a sp 404 killer; I will buy it asap. The hardware is what I was wanting for the sp 404, the build in mic and the compact shape are essential to have fun with those devices. I'm wondering if the keys feeling are similars to Polyend's tracker caption keys ^^ Can't wait.
I gotta be honest. This looks pretty exciting, and I dont even like T.E. that much. I do own some POs tho. I am a big fan of buying used, so I will probably get this if I can find one there! Great vid as usual!!! Also the exterior design reminds me of a storm trooper helmet...😂
Jade what´s happening? The screen is a not an OLED screen like on op1, you can easily see that is it a super cheap basic screen like on old watches. If it´s offordable it´s for sure super cheap to build for TE.
Its badass looking i really want one £300 is really fair that seems to be the set price for budget samplers theres lots in that price range and some are pretty good like the novation circuit rhythm so theres lots of options out there but this looks one of the nicest

Unfortunate for Korg sales indeed, I bet this will attract the crowd more.
Big Facts! 👍🏾
No loop mode. No resampling. No editing screen. Nah Korg have nothing to worry about.
i remember when korg came out with affordable gear and teenage engineering came out with 1600 dollar mixers lol
One shots only. 404 is staple for ambient, long loops, droning and such. There is nothing like it . Nothing will beat 404 simplicity and capacity.

When I saw this release I immediately thought of you and was waiting for your opinion. Can’t wait for your review.
The screen is definitely not LED like the OP-1. It looks maybe like it's just a larger color version of the Pocket Operator's screen.
It’s an array of RGB backlit glyphs and a small oled in the middle arranged like a big rectangle screen (smart) if I am not wrong 🎉.
I think it's a 7-segment LED display like on a digital alarm clock, rather than an OLED. That may be one reason they were able to hit this price point and battery consumption. But maybe I'm wrong.
ColecoVison tabletop and ASR-10 like display.
At this price, ease of use, and unique retro looks this will sell out everywhere I think..
I got it. I saw demos online. It's exactly what I need and the price was wild, especially coming from TE.
Max sample length is 20 seconds!
it's already sold out. ordered it as soon as I saw it. was at Perfect Circuit around 1pm today and they mentioned they got a ton of preorders already.

You’re silly! The sp404mk2 is so intuitive, this machine can’t sample long samples as you’ll use the memory up so it’s not a mk2 killer
I was almost going to pre-order this through their amazon listing. I paused this vid to take a break and do a short workout and 30 minutes later now it’s not available. They saved me $300 at least.
Neat and very much designed and marketed to get public opinion back off the hate train, its certainly what I would have done. juxtaposed with everything they’ve done, turning turned off folks back on in an instant, timed and priced in end of November to take full advantage of their outsourced manufacturing and get everyone talking.
I wonder if it can sample while playing. I doubt it. I wonder, if TE was inspired by the old mpc workflow, lots of similarities.
Yeah I was thinking the same thing, i dont know which one I want more but I know one of thems going on my christmas list lmao
Kind of similar to the MPC500.
looks like a winner and classic...
I wonder if it will properly sync to an external clock.. The 404mk2 stumbles around like a teenager after his first four loko. It doesn't seem to affect event but it's been driving people nuts for at least the last year
I’m not even gonna rush to get one lol but i know these joints gonna sale out fast
When I first saw this was from T.E. I assumed this would cost atleast $1000
… and the game changed over night !
Teenage Engineering is the retro gaming company Anaologue just for musicians
Ordered it as soon as i saw it this morning. Ive been using the pocket operators as well as the OP-Z for quite some time. Weird but happy they are $299 & hope it can replace my 404
I have two coming from Perfect Circuit. I also own the AKAI MPC X. So for me, having enough space for sampling is not an issue.
These are dope!
Jade come on.... all the te "economic" line of products have tons of quality build issues, starting with the opz (the banana effect, retriggers, etc..) and ending with all the po (a lot of them stop working after a year) i know its not the same with the more premium line but lets be honest. I mean i like it, but i also like the opz and never got it, we should ask for more quality build and materials from te... remember you can get a sp404 for the same price so.... a lot of factors in the play not only the beautifull desing and hipster look
I made the mistake of only counting 12 pads too lol
It’s only $299? Wild. I figured it would be like 10x that.
Instant cop. Watched a couple videos, read the manual. No brainer
Color me shocked. I saw the announcement of the product, thought it was beautiful, but didn’t look any further because I expected it was going to be astronomically priced.
I have both !!! Its not the sp 404 mk2 killer !!! Period hahahah
Nice. Now where's the Street Fighter version
K.O may land some body blows . . .but it’s no sp 404 killer. The effects, being able to control the Koala sampler on iOS. The O.P is a TOY compared to the SP. i own both
It's probably an introductory price. It'll go up to $500, once a bunch of popular TH-cam influencers have videos about them. 🤣
I haven't seen trimming like this since the roland ms1, sort of akin to byte offset, but i don't know if i would enjoy it as much as the simplicity of the po-33. which i guess is still going so eh.
This is NOT colour screen. There is only 3 digits, old style screen (similar to this one from old Deluge),
JAJAJAJAJAA....Cada aparato tiene sus ventajas y desventajas con tantas caracteristicas y funciones que hay y existen...Bien animo gentes y vayamos todos con alegrias y felicidades...
This thing is going to sell. I can't wait to see what they come out with next.
Pre-ordered mine through Perfect Circuit and hopefully we get it on time and it's not backordered like woah
I'm super hyped for the 133
Yeah about that JWeezy....got mine yesterday and the fader port is broken already... everything else is top notch, but I still choose my SP 404MK2 over it
Just ordered it ! :D
I like the mix of Dieter Rams and Lego. Very cool object 👌
Thanks Jade for this video :) Actually, for me it's clearly a sp 404 killer; I will buy it asap. The hardware is what I was wanting for the sp 404, the build in mic and the compact shape are essential to have fun with those devices. I'm wondering if the keys feeling are similars to Polyend's tracker caption keys ^^ Can't wait.
So I guess….the headphones go in the output???😅😅😅
Epic and amazing deisgn. Great video
No loop mode and no resampling.TE when asked about this said probably not. Avoid.
unlimited sample length vs 64mb. Looks pretty but SP404 killer...nah. Horses for courses, apples and pears.
I don’t get why the crave for a 404 killer 😂.
Your always trying to kill the 404 lol
0:54 not speaker it's mic
It is a speaker too
teenage gonna conquer the world
Those pressure sensitive pads for the fx. 😮 👍
Already ordered. Looks fun to create on the couch tracks with
The pads are pressure sensitive
Its only 64mb sample memory 😅
SP1200 style.
@@BillyBatsonMarvel exactly😅👍
Wow, something made 40 years ago? @@BillyBatsonMarvel
Had the 404 and TE. I want this
I gotta be honest. This looks pretty exciting, and I dont even like T.E. that much. I do own some POs tho.
I am a big fan of buying used, so I will probably get this if I can find one there! Great vid as usual!!!
Also the exterior design reminds me of a storm trooper helmet...😂
I am or was this close to buying an MPC one plus, I may get this instead. It looks fun, sounds good… A cheaper 404 maybe.
I ordered this so fast
Jade what´s happening? The screen is a not an OLED screen like on op1, you can easily see that is it a super cheap basic screen like on old watches. If it´s offordable it´s for sure super cheap to build for TE.
Its badass looking i really want one £300 is really fair that seems to be the set price for budget samplers theres lots in that price range and some are pretty good like the novation circuit rhythm so theres lots of options out there but this looks one of the nicest
Nice one! Looking forward to seeing some videos of you jamming out! Ordered mine too :D
JW you're awesome! Thanks for the upload. 👍
it's almost like POs and this new series are made in a different department
hope so! now want an EP-8 mixer :)
