Sold all my po's......never had the 28......but this is the second vid I've seen and thought.....wowzer..... It's got that Berlin School sound to it. Which it had midi....may have to buy one and sample it!
@Miniclash did you produced maybe something? I love what you played here and i want to listen more of your music. The combo of PO-20 and PO-28 is astonishing. You're unbelievable, that's the genre of music im searching my whole life. Please don't stop and share with us your music 🙏
Oh but this is gooood. Love it and best demo for the PO-20 to date. It sold me on it (and almost on the PO-28 too). I wish you'd record a tutorial breaking down the steps you took to arrive at this. Kudos in any case.

Since I’ve started collecting POs (that’s when we’re still cheap) I’m only missing the Arcade, Rick and Morty, and the robot. They are not worth what people are asking now, but I’ve expanded my rhythm section with an RD-9, a Drumlouge, and Roland SH-4D. I already had the DR-880 the DR-770 a Yamaha multi 12, and an Integra 7, also Kontact 14 Collectors. The point is, with all that I still use the POs! They work excellent as oscillators that can be shaped and filtered with my Eurorack, semi-Modular’s, and AUM. So if anyone else is in the same situation, don’t spend a stupid amount of money to complete the collection! I know you’re probably thinking damn, you spent a ridiculous amount of money on yours! Exactly! Honestly I can shape the Factory into any sounding want. Please learn from my mistakes! If you want to build a home studio and you have one PO, learn to shape that! I still keep my eye out, in pawn shops and stuff, but don’t pay these ridiculous prices, and I suggest you don’t sell them either! I saw a Rick and Morty on Reverb for $575! Use them enjoy them! Wonderful video! I enjoyed it!
AWESOME! I have the "Factory" PO and fancy getting the sub one to link up. The way you played those two on the fly was something else and I loved it. Totally brilliant.
I just bought the Rhythm and the KO and before they even arrived I added the arcade into the order just cuz I want to make some chiptune songs cuz it reminds me of Gaming and it is just cool
@@Miniclash yeah I did and while it's not that hard to thrower down some basic patterns, producing actual pleasing music is another thing. Thanks for the reply
@@Miniclash so I did practice. wondering about one thing tho, how do you figure out which notes live-played on either PO sound well with the current chord thats coming from the arcade? Is there a lot of learning music theory involved?
@@bumboclat Hey glad to see you back! Nah, it's real easy. Well, kinda. But no Music Theory involved, other than musical "common sense" I guess? You'll realize that when using the chord engine of the PO-20, using either A or Am as your starting point, you can progress from there in direct connection or diagonals to chord progressions. Feel free to experiment and find patterns you end up liking. I like to cycle 4 chords, but YMMV. And as for the robot, as long as you keep starting in A or Am on the robot, you will always more or less be in the same scale and will have no "wrong notes" so to speak you can play. Hope it helps, don't hesitate if you have questions :)
Sure thing, forthis video specifically, I used a simple male/male headphones jack that I put in the Aux in of my PC integrated soundcard. But nowadays, I use a pretty good (for my taste) cheap behringer xenyx USB mixer. It's absolutely all I ever needed for recording simple shit at home.
it is not, the ROBOT only uses white keys from the piano, and here is the list of chords the ARCADE can play - www.teenageengineering.com/guides/po-20/en
strange. the robot solo sounds good but i wonder if it is kind of a 1 trick pony. i imagine it isnt something i could use on every track, would be too similar.
@@jevogroni4829 robot has 15 different sounds and a drum kit and sequencer. Its main purpose is impromptu lead voice live play. But it can be a drum machine or backround music sequencer as well.
I do use some of the internal punch in effects on both. Some retrigs, the sweep filter on the PO-20 and on the robot, when I change instruments, I actually add in a filter (that's also included) to smooth out a bit the harshness of the whiny lead. But no external pedals or effects no.
I'd say Arcade. It's the most verstaile. You can make full songs wit it alone. The Robot is a leader, you create fantastic solos and leads, but the rythmic section is a joke.
This is the most astonishing PO jam I've ever seen. And I've seen a few...
Agreed
That is sweet.
because of your jam,I an falling in love with po-20 and po-28
Thank you. It is really a made in heaven combo :)
Incroyable morceau. Quel voyage! Merci, je ne m'en lasse pas.
Merci !!!
Beautiful. My 2 POs have arrived in the mail yesterday. Because of this video. One day I'll be able to make a rendition of this.
Cannot wait to hear what you make of it :)
thank you, so i can take off peacefully. cheers 🍄🍄
Enjoy your flight! ;)
Sold all my po's......never had the 28......but this is the second vid I've seen and thought.....wowzer..... It's got that Berlin School sound to it.
Which it had midi....may have to buy one and sample it!
God I love these!!! Can't wait to get good with our KO and Arcade
so retro I love it
I remember this one as being one of my sources of inspiration to get my own PO's and make my own tunes!
I remember this as being my first "serious" success on RUclips hihihi. ^^

Jeez, that's too much 😳. I'm real real grateful for this message. This is motivating for sure ;)
Literally same!
@@MiniclashHe's right too tho, you're smashing it bro!! Every one of your jams I've seen so far I've loved! 😄😁
Sounds even better at 2x
Yeah, it's over faster that way.
Beautiful journey, thank you man
Sounds like some good Laurent Garnier.
That's not even 1/100th true, but thank you for the praise! :)
What a great performance. Kudos!
That was really good.
Thanks, and thank you for subscribing! :)
Nice groove... and a great exploration of the instrument's capabilities. :)
Cheers!
this is so cool! love it
Thank you so much :)
This is beautiful…
THanks!
Great music
ever sinse I got one of these I have been playing with it non stop. I litterally have had it for about 14 hours and have played with it for 6 XD.
This is a legit groove. Great work

Yes this is very good.I have po 20 and I have a lot to learn, it's slow going.The tutorials always make me feel stupid.
Did you manage to get something out of it in the end? :)

brilliant jam
Outstanding.
This is an excellent demo!
Stellar.

Magnifique! Getting one tomorrow, i will decide at the shop but will probably go for the Arcade. Thanks for the music.
Which one did you end up buying?
@@Miniclashthe arcade! I love it... jamming with my friend who has the factory is so nice
Great! Don't hesitate to share some of your jams :) @@akrammoussa7488
Hotline miami?? Great!
I LURV Hotline Miami, I'd love to do soundtracks for them.
Alessio N Hahaha... I thought M.O.O.N. immediately
I love this!! Great performance!
...where.......where am I...? Wherever this may be, I do not want to leave.
AWESOME! I have the "Factory" PO and fancy getting the sub one to link up. The way you played those two on the fly was something else and I loved it. Totally brilliant.

Great Track!
i already have arcade but im getting robot soon and i just cant wait after i heard this
great jam ma! sounds good, nice job ciao
I just bought the Rhythm and the KO and before they even arrived I added the arcade into the order just cuz I want to make some chiptune songs cuz it reminds me of Gaming and it is just cool
apparently the arcade has some unique chord progression programming stuff
@@jevogroni4829 yes it does
Love your po videos. Keep it up!
awesome stuff man! Love the sounds of the robot! Gotta get one asap! Stay cool!
Have you yet? :)
@@Miniclash Idk about him, but I did after finding about your stuff :)
Great jam!
Great stuff!
Just ordered the PO-28.
well played I must say!! Very inspiring to watch :D I own a few of these as well, but I never made a full tune with them, just ideas :D
Have fun, that's all that matters. :)
Order placed... only to be told the PO-20 was sold out and is on back-order. :(
I love PO too. Subbed!
THanks for the sub! Happy heart ^^
Great work! ... just subbed, you need way more subs and keep up the good work!
Thanks for the sub! They help with the motivation ;)
Sounds great!

This is nice, I love it!
Stellar!
soooooo great!!!!!!
il me faut ces truc !
On les trouve facile. T'as craqué ?
@@Miniclash pas encore, la pauvreté m'en protège ahah
Ha ha ha! this is so amazing!! Nice work! It teach me new tricks. I made a basic song, but this is something better. Thanks for sharing.
amazing
Respect
nice job
holy shiiiiiiiiit
nice
So cool :)
Wo_________oW
No se que juego sea pero lo quiero jugar!!
Nice one. Like it :-)
Great Lead Soung, did you need to modify a lot of PO28 presets?
Thanks, it's a stock sound (the one with the little wrench drawing), no edits.
no idea how you even do the first 2 minutes. just cant follow all the steps. geez these things can be frustrating when you are still learning them
Have you practiced a bit? It's not that hard once you get the gist of it, I promise.
@@Miniclash yeah I did and while it's not that hard to thrower down some basic patterns, producing actual pleasing music is another thing. Thanks for the reply

play some martin galway!
Nice
Awesome work there Sir! May I ask how you connected the machines to your computer and recorded this?
Sure thing, forthis video specifically, I used a simple male/male headphones jack that I put in the Aux in of my PC integrated soundcard. But nowadays, I use a pretty good (for my taste) cheap behringer xenyx USB mixer. It's absolutely all I ever needed for recording simple shit at home.
@@Miniclash Nice! Thanks for the reply! Enjoy your week!
GOOD
Nice 👍 but well prepared "jam" ;D
Absolutely, there's some live elements, but it is mostly pre-planned.
You should be able to 100X shit like this!
WOW! This sounds so good! But what about the scale? Is it not possible to play whatever one wants?
it is not, the ROBOT only uses white keys from the piano, and here is the list of chords the ARCADE can play - www.teenageengineering.com/guides/po-20/en
strange. the robot solo sounds good but i wonder if it is kind of a 1 trick pony. i imagine it isnt something i could use on every track, would be too similar.

This is really great ! I love your work ! I am planning to buy those two ones. Wich other PO could be a good addition to this set ?
great video! what scale is the PO28 in? can u play half tones?
You can't. And that sucks. It's some kind of Am chromatic scale (I think it's called). Thanks for the nice words :)
There is a list of chords here if that helps - www.teenageengineering.com/guides/po-20/en
I know I'm a bit late to the party here, but it looks like it's in A Harmonic Minor. That is, A minor with an added g#
@@paytonlee2074 Even later to the answer, but thanks.
Did you use any effects on the po’s?
He does on the PO-20 Arcade at 8:47 and several times until the end.
I do use some of the internal punch in effects on both. Some retrigs, the sweep filter on the PO-20 and on the robot, when I change instruments, I actually add in a filter (that's also included) to smooth out a bit the harshness of the whiny lead.
But no external pedals or effects no.
so what's better to get first? robot or arcade?
Robot
I'd say Arcade. It's the most verstaile. You can make full songs wit it alone. The Robot is a leader, you create fantastic solos and leads, but the rythmic section is a joke.
