teenage engineering PO-32 Pocket Operator Tonic Drum Machine
MPN's:
Almost Perfect
A well designed sampler that is fun to use, and because it is pocketable there is no excuse NOT to make music. -1 star: Although it can be backed up on a computer, the data cannot be converted to midi or multitrack audio for DAW integration. Considering that a fully fledged 128 pattern song can be made on the unit, it would have been nice for all the effort put into making a song could be mixed and mastered later. There are workarounds, but I am sure Teenage Engineering can allow us to convert and integrate the backup data into our DAW.

Pretty fun little beat machine
I recently bought the tonic and I like it. It's very physically difffernt than what you'd expect. Basically a drum machine without the case. This is both cool and at time annyoing. It's cool because see the guys he the machine gives it appeal. It's not cool because it's sharp. Perhaps there is an external case for it available. I would but it, especially for storing in your pocket. That can be tricky... you wouldn't want to snap it in half.... ho... Show More

This is my fifth Pocket Operator and easily is the best one so far. I wasn't going to spring for the additional Mircotonic software, but I decided to give it a shot and am very pleased. It really opens up your options and it's all very intuitive to use.
