video upload by Ricky Tinez

"It can't even do things the PO-33 can do! I let myself down by getting wrapped in the hype, haha. Its an awesome device, and yes you can make full songs on it.. But it might be a challenge at times! Which can be a good thing. TL:DR, I wanted to get this to play live and perform on, but it's going to be a little trickier than I excpected."

I purchased a Teenage Engineering K.O. II EP-133 (not sure what to call it)
I was aware of the fader issue, so it was the first thing I checked
the slider made it impossible to use so I returned it right away
to mourn the loss I decided to make a jam on my under utilized Octatrack
the original MK2 sampler"

What's All the Hype About? // Teenage Engineering EP-133 K.O. II

"Post upload, I realize I never mentioned patterns...within a scene, each group can have multiple patterns, hold a group letter, then + and - to cycle that groups patterns.

I think this got lost in editing because I called it redundant, than back pedaled because I realized it makes things a lot more flexible for improvising scenarios, then back pedaled because it seemed cumbersome to remember which pattern was which without any on-screen visuals...its 3am I am not editing any more.

This video feels too long, but everything I said feels important, so its not getting cut.
