The PO-33 KO is probably one of my favorite new pieces of gear in a long time. I made an entire album on it in about a week. It's just so easy to use and the workflow really inspires so much creativity.
@@johnfrancisdoe1563 I can see it now. "tower this is air France 3794 requesting flight clearance for IFR flight plan.." "SO LETS RECORD AN EXAMPLE" "Oh no someone has a pocket operator in the back"
My friend bought one of these when we were hitchhiking around the europe, even though we sometimes struggled to make anything listenable, it always brought strangers closer to us :)
You’re a great teacher dude! You’ve inspired me to start playing guitar again and learn more music theory and for that alone you have my gratitude. Keep the dopeness coming.
One of my favorite things to do in my spare time is to take my skills as a software developer and explore what I'm able to accomplish in limited contexts (i.e. a simple programming language in a game). I assume these devices would be equally challenging and fun.
Just to great. Bought 3 this year. Partially convinced by this video. PO-33 KO by far is the fave. Like a budget DAW in my pocket. Perfect for any travels. :) I am also working on syncing them with Koala Sampler
Lol I’m so confused it’s 1:00 in the morning and I started watching meme compilations and somehow got here I don’t understand anything that he’s doing but I love it
I think it quantizes the FX automation at the same rate as the notes, so you basically get 16 points per pattern. This matches how it handles the rest of the pattern automation at least.
“I wish there was something like like this when I was a kid” Actually, there was: the talk boy from home alone could do a lot of the sampling and warping that it does.
I just started making music and heard from you like 5 days ago, but I get why you have so many followers. Fun, dynamic crazy guy making fun dynamic crazy music
A HANDBAAAAAG!? You made my week back in March, but it didn't catch up to me until today. Your deployment of the Importance of Being Ernest bought you a subscriber today. Thank you very much.
Challenge idea for you, Rob, Roomie, and Dave. A music making challenge, but everyone has to pick pre sets for someone else and screw them over with what they pick
THE EDITING on this was more than superb; I haven't laughed at one of your videos quite like this before. Bravo! "If you haven't already" Mom's spaghetti Handbag-etti?
@@VICKERY- relative to other equipment, no. I think people get annoyed when they see how much brick and mortar stores are marking the popular ones of them up, and when they get an impression that these are some kind of groovebox. They're practically toys, and that's fine. With that in mind, relative to something like an app, e.g. nanoloop, they're quite expensive and honestly a bit of a pain to use with serious intent. Though i'd be happy to have one on a plane or something, sure.
@@VICKERY- also, I wonder if these aren't just largely identical hardware devices flashed with different firmware. If you did want to use these and only these to produce, it would be great if you could pay some amount to license firmware and then reflash them to be the ones you need. If you're interest in three or four, the price quickly adds up.
Limitation is exactly why I love the PO system. I have the PO-24, Office, learning how to work within the limitations of this device has actually made me create some really fun beats. I cannot wait to add a second operator. Really don't know what I want yet. Kind of leaning towards the KO.
Hey Andrew I just bought the the PO KO! I hope it's amazing! I have been wanting to get into Synths and making electronic music in general. I have had such a hard time figuring what to get, and getting confused in general with how equipment is explained. This was a great tutorial, and I can't wait to get my device to play with and try to learn! If you have any other recommendations please make more videos on them. I need to learn, and I want equipment you trust!
Yeah , 4 polyphonic doesn't matter if you are actually trying to create a decent track on DAW. You'd be running the individual me channels onto their own tracks. Worrying about that would.pnly be if you wanted to use this.as a toy.
Great video! I've gotta get the PO 33 now! Pocket operators are so awesome I had my PO-20 for a couple years now and just realized that it supports midi beat sync up with other synths. My mind is blown with how much ground these cover, yet so simple, and easy to use and super inexpensive.
Let's just take a moment to appreciate how small those devices are. You needed SO MUCH MORE back in like 2000 to be able to do all that. Imagine how further can this technology advance in the future. I dunno, it's fascinating.
These are insanely cheap for what they do. You would have to buy several other pieces of gear to do what this does all-in-one. If you’re looking for inexpensive, check out some free DAW’s.
‘To be born, or at any rate bred, in a handbag, whether it has handles or not, seems to me to display a contempt for the ordinary decencies of family life that reminds one of the worst excesses of the French Revolution.’
my god, this is like a gameboy for musicians.
That's what it feels like lol
LSDj is a literal gameboy for musicians
This has nothing to do with Music.
@@randysnewbiebluesrockguita7782 YES! The old gatekeeper who plays *guitar* YOU MUST BE THE ONLY ONE (:
@Dale Macarena You dont need the op1 to use the pocket operators

link the album
You can connect in your cellphone?
@@hellokiddooo yeah
My claim to fame is going to be that I said spaghetti on TH-cam and Andrew Huang wrote a beat with it. Sending this to Mom!
Ben Levin C O L L A B
I've never been so happy, Ben finally getting the recognition he deserved all along
Spaghetti
Ben Levin haha XD
For real though, thanks for all the hard work you put into inspiring people to make music.
Lucky
This stuff would be a real time killer on a plane
Imma order mines next week for paris !
Na'Kia H. May need RF shielding to not interfere with avionics.

I can see it now.
"tower this is air France 3794 requesting flight clearance for IFR flight plan.."
"SO LETS RECORD AN EXAMPLE"
"Oh no someone has a pocket operator in the back"
If only it didnt look like a pocket operating ied
John Quackenbush it’s requesting IFR clearance.
I just love the mental image of a handbag full of spaghetti.
What is your spaghetti policy here?
ITS always sunny in Philadelphia
It's liberating isn't it
That would be perfekt for the single cover !
Fdf
My friend bought one of these when we were hitchhiking around the europe, even though we sometimes struggled to make anything listenable, it always brought strangers closer to us :)
upvote for spaghetti
does multicoloured shirt mean recording?
Red sauce means recording
I was watching the video and thinking about you. Glad to see you here. :)
Seriously. This collab needs to happen!!
"so lets record some spaghetti" remix when?
I died when I heard the Handbag thing on the Pocket Operater.
You’re a great teacher dude! You’ve inspired me to start playing guitar again and learn more music theory and for that alone you have my gratitude. Keep the dopeness coming.
This would be dope to mess around with at school
This will be perfect to annoy the class
Bernadette Bautista it's aux output
Dirty Dan i has a builtin speaker
Plus it looks like a calculator
*A Handbag?*
*A Haaanndddbaaahgggg?*
thank you for the support! 💢🥊🙏🏼
teenageengineering thank YOU for making these!
🤩🙏
That shirt gives me lifeeee
where is it from ?
I WANT THAT SHIRT!
Me too!!
@@ErichEats SHOT OUT TO ALL THE FOLKS WHO WATCHED THIS AND ALSO WANT THE DRRRIIIIPPPP
I need it ohmygodohmygod
Needs a part 2, not so long justice here bro , K.O deserves it's own episode!
OMG! You used my "A Handbag?" Clip. That just made my day!!!
Kraftwerk in the palm of your hands - what miracle times we live in.
Thank god someone also thought of Kraftwerk. I'm the operator with my pocket... operator?
if I could marry a shirt I would choose the one you’re wearing
Yeah, where'd he get it? I love stuff like that.
I have the same one, its from H&M
cant find it in the FR and US stores, do you have a link pls?

YUP. Something way limited makes me way more creative than if I get endless possibilities. It's weird that way.
You'd love Game Builder Garage for the switch
I'm the operator of my pocket calculator.
By pressing down a special key it plays a little melody
Kraftwerk predicted the future !
Beep boop brrrrrrrrr
Listen to Computer Love. THEY PREDICTED TINDER.
I'm your operator with my pocket calculator
Pee. Pow.
PUUUU
The K.O seems to be insanely powerful
My favorite part of Mondays is being able to watch an Andrew Huang video. Always learning more from you, Andrew, thank you. ❤️😛
OMG IM OBSESSED WITH POCKET OPERATORS AND HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR YOU TO MAKE A VIDEO ON THESE! THANK YOU SO MUCH!
Yes yes yes ive been waiting for this so much. Thx thx thx
Whoa look at this comment........ITS BEEN HIGHLIGHTED BY THE ONE AND ONLY ANDREW HUANG. thx🎤🎧🎷🎸🎹🎺🎻🎼🎵🎶♩🎙
I was waiting on this too, definitely right up his alley
Dope!!! It's always cool when legitimate musicians get busy on the tech gear. It helps wanna-bees like me push it to the next level. Great Vid!!!!
Good to see Ben Levin getting some recognition... sort of.
Jack Pepper only Adam Neely was recognized :'(
ive seen so many videos ab these things but yours is by far the most useful ty
I love this channel for wired experimental stuff and reviews thanks Andrew!
Just to great. Bought 3 this year. Partially convinced by this video.
PO-33 KO by far is the fave. Like a budget DAW in my pocket. Perfect for any travels. :)
I am also working on syncing them with Koala Sampler
Lol I’m so confused it’s 1:00 in the morning and I started watching meme compilations and somehow got here I don’t understand anything that he’s doing but I love it
You should download a free copy of Cakewalk by Bandlab and start making music...
Two years later, and a) my god, what a simpler time 2018 was, and b) so let's record an example still gets stuck in my head all the time.

I was on the on the fence about buying one, now I’m buying one. You explained the device well!
That ending...you got me man!😂😂
“I wish there was something like like this when I was a kid” Actually, there was: the talk boy from home alone could do a lot of the sampling and warping that it does.
DUDE that dress shirt is phenomenal!! Where's it from?
Ogotu it’s not a dress shirt just for having a collar on it lol
this looks like it has a steep-ish learning curve but it would also be SUPER fun to use
got some old daft punk vibes off that spaghetti beat
Austin Mangle same
Yeah man, that handbag sample sounds heaps like something from technologic
I just started making music and heard from you like 5 days ago, but I get why you have so many followers. Fun, dynamic crazy guy making fun dynamic crazy music
This device is possibly the highest homage paid to Kraftwerk's Pocket Calculator.
I'm the operator with my pocket knockerator!
the hooh sample is the best sample i’ve heard all day
A HANDBAAAAAG!? You made my week back in March, but it didn't catch up to me until today. Your deployment of the Importance of Being Ernest bought you a subscriber today. Thank you very much.
loving your editing
Just got the PO-24 Office. Really love it so far but my next purchase will likely be the K.O. so I can daisy chain and sync up beats.
Damn, man! Next you should make music with an abacus! 😂
Challenge idea for you, Rob, Roomie, and Dave. A music making challenge, but everyone has to pick pre sets for someone else and screw them over with what they pick
What?! No jokes about the sound of one hand clapping?
5:04 Half a clap
So, that's what it sounds like! Does this make me a zen master now?
Do you need to have the pocket operator plugged in to have it play, or does it have a built in speaker?
Everyone: Sees the awesome shirt:
Me: Forgets what the video is about.
I love pocket operators. If anyone is wondering, these are great for starters like myself. Awesome video Andrew! 👌👌👌
0:57 Don't tell me that's a hardbass donk
*my inner slav:* *jumps out of his screen and takes the thingy from him*

"If you haven't already"
Mom's spaghetti
Handbag-etti?
The most amazing thing about these is how expensive they are when you actually look at them.
Still much more cheaper than the OP1
....they aren't expensive
......at all....

I like how this thing is cleverly not super fancy "future" looking. it's mechanics speak for itself.
The only good thing to a Monday.
Ikr?
I mean, i just got out of priS- school- i mean school
I've been waiting for this video like this for a year now! Thanks, Andrew! (such a miracle worker)
Nice to see you finally use the magically fun gameboy calculator synths haha
Yus!!!! Been waiting for this one!!!
Your shirt is a a party for my eyes!

I was literally eating spaghetti bolognese watching this 😂😂😂😂😂
woooow
I love this! Thanks for reviewing, Andrew!
"I'm the calculator with my Pocket Operator"
The way that first sample got chopped reminds me so much of FLs Slicer on mobile.
Ngl, I kinda love it.
"so let's record an example" type beat
Hey Andrew I just bought the the PO KO! I hope it's amazing!
I have been wanting to get into Synths and making electronic music in general. I have had such a hard time figuring what to get, and getting confused in general with how equipment is explained.

If you have any other recommendations please make more videos on them. I need to learn, and I want equipment you trust!
6:26 sounds like when you're changing someone's voice in tomodachi life
A walk around a city at random with one of those pocket operators just sampling the noises would make some funky beats
The “Lets record an example” section reminds me of Tomadachi Life.
I think the k.o will be good for me on the go or at school since I’m only 13 and have a spending limit on products, but this looks amazing
That was a great video! Those two look like a lot of fun :)
Wasnt expecting much from that small sequencer,but im suprised how much you can do with it.wow.
Random compliment incoming: I like your choice of font. Also that ending made me lol
The end of the video cracked me up lol 'a hand bag'
Andrew, this sounds strange, but you should try to make music with Roblox sounds, not just the oof sound
But ROBLOX Studio is good.
Maxture I use it everyday!
I feel like that would be too niche for his audience...
wth are my old comments
1:26 that was beautiful, and it wasn’t even intentional.

I trolled my teacher i Said it was a calculator😂😂

Lmao
lol! Damn smart! My boss would never know the difference!!! Why the headphones..? Im listening to the numbers as frequencies ^_^
Simon Cassel *was* not *were* I’m disappointed nobody corrected this idiot before
+Vetoed Impersonator Oh be quiet teacher. You're just mad that your eyesight is too bad to recognize a calculator!
Haha totally saves the handbag situation at the end there

9:11 no seriously
“It darks up” I love him
Yo! You did a pocket operator video!!! What editing software do you use?
The more and more I get into music the more and more I understand what andrew is saying
Me: Oh nice maybe i should buy one of those there not gonna be over 30 dol-
*looks at price*
Me: *Nevermind*

Nothing worth your time that's actually good in the long run is cheap, always make investments.

When did Kraftwerk come?
Thanks Andrew for being the best youtube in the world you inspire me in almost every way ,thanks 😀
That is my voice when I wake up 6:17
These are sick and the design is dope
Every time I get a notification of your videos, I think "Go Ahead, Make My Day".
8:31 - "A handbag?"
From the film adaption of "The Importance of Being Earnest".
they’re calculators that make music instead of do math
oh wow it went a bit banjo kazooie there at 1:27. Also great video! What the heck
