sampler probably. based on their last two teasers. one of which was a mic art with a tiny mic sensor in it and that last one is definitely a new lcd for a po.

MPC Live/X look like bloated beasts taking the first strides onto the land from the murky swamps, perhaps their descendants will be viable but they look pretty meh to me. Not in the market for such a thing anyway though.

This... please manufacturers... making hardware more like a DAW/tablet is not the answer.

 

 

All the modern hardware seems to have the color pallete of an old candy raver's necklace. Fuckin' Nicolas Refn on an acid bender designing these things. I want something in the ugly biege box variety, with loud mechanical keys, too. If it doesn't look like it can send a fax then it's probably not worth the money.

A sampling pocket operator would solve my (minor) issue with them, which is ultimately getting bored with the sounds. Being able to add my own samples and fuck them up with momentary, step recordable effects sounds brilliant.

Digit,

 

Good point about the mkii. That was maybe before elektron had a clear vision, but still. Also, they are gonna want to have a response to the mpc live. I know a lot of people will be selling an elektron box to fund that purchase.

I have a strong feeling that Elektron is a granular fx processor which I have no interest in now. Pay close attention because in 5 days its going to be the only thing I want in the universe. Seriously, fuck those guys.

seems I was wrong! no confirmation on TE's website yet tho...

 

edit: if this is true is kinda annoying.. defeats the purpose of the other drum POs a bit no?

I would imagine TE are more interested in selling the existing customers who have all the PO's another one....

 

I'd still bet a nut that there will be a PO Sampler.

$89.. dammit, I might sell a couple of my current ones for it

sick!

 

te evil geniuses. i thought they had supposedly another set of 3 in the works. a vocal synth thing, the sampler and something else? and that was supposed to be the last of the po series (with maybe some big mixer thing to fit them all)

 

wonder if they're really only unveiling the one

NAMM doesn't start until tomorrow so maybe they are just getting people interested?? Previous PO releases have been in threes so I reckon there will be others. Definitely a sampler...... :)

Yes! I just want interesting sounds coming out of boring-looking boxes. Barebones interfaces that look like some computer from the 60s inspire me a lot.

Um... that pocket operator is dope as heck. As long as they are throwing such a beefy drum synth in that thing, it would have been cool to add some MIDI, but no good deed unpunished, etc. Looks like a damn good time to me and it doesn't seem to step on the other POs' toes.

Also this. Not going to lie, part of the reason I have a bit of volca sample lust is it has roughly the same drab colors of Akai's golden era.
