  • Favorite Pocket Operator Pairings!
    Today I'm showing off my favorite Pocket Operator pairings! While Pocket Operators are great pieces of electronic music gear on their own, the real fun comes when you start to combine them with one another. With so many different Pocket Operators, the possibilities are almost endless! What's your favorite pairing? Enjoy the video :)

    4th PO is on the way so time to return to this video to see if there is anything I can make use of. Your content consistently delivers. Keep going.

    I like pairing up with the po-14 sub because love groovy bass lines in my pocket operator music and po-14 does it best!

    • @FreeBeat
      @FreeBeat  3 года назад

      The po 14 can crank out some serious bass for sure!

    As you have previously demonstrated, for a light set up, with no need for a mixer, sync em up together standalone or with the NTS-1

      @DMTCYMATICSDreamMusicTemple 3 года назад

      I bought six PO's, my favourite so far in order is: 1. Street Fighter 2. Arcade 3. Robot 4. Rick n Morty 5
      I will buy the tonic for sure is on my wish list. I've sold the Rythm and Sub.

    • @FreeBeat
      @FreeBeat  3 года назад

      Yeah, something like the NTS-1 or monotron delay takes pairings like these to the next level!

    The chord mode on the arcade always get's me. Great jam! My favorite is the KO combined with another KO lol. But they are all great.
    Can't wait to hear your Pocket Operator Album! ✌

    Ok, now wait a minute. I thought your favorite p.o. was office 🏣. Bwahahaha! I'd like to hear a trk; office space vs. Speak Striker feat. MegaMan on washtub bass.

    What was type of audio cable used between the PO’s

    • @FreeBeat
      @FreeBeat  3 года назад

      Just a 3.5mm TRS cable. Same thing as an "aux" cable.

    Would be great to see some guide on how to record on PC these combo for someone who has a basic setup (not specific hardware to record)

    • @DMTCYMATICSDreamMusicTemple
      @DMTCYMATICSDreamMusicTemple 3 года назад +1

      buy an iRig 2. record into cubase matching bpm (if choosing iPhone/iPad to record.
      With a PC line-in you can record direct from the last PO in your chain. If you use a DAW, tho you could layer more from the PO, add vst effects, fine tune and master the sound.
      Audacity is a great free software and a must have for musicians.

    • @FreeBeat
      @FreeBeat  3 года назад +1

      Just run the out of the last PO in your chain interior computers audio in jack. Or, preferably run the pocket operators into an external audio interface. From there you can use any number of different free recording softwares (like Audacity) to record them :)

      Appreciate you taking the time to leave feedback. Is it the overhead view in general you don't like? Or the fact that I tend to talk with my hands (I admit this can be pretty distracting, something I'm trying to work on).
