im in sydney, the op1 field is $3000, these are gonna hit our shores at $549aud which really is pretty good, the sp404mk2 is about $700 and a digitakt is around $1600 so this is pretty damn good price wise

And out of their everything is microscopic phase.

@@KenithCopeland koala sampler just couple of bucks tho

@@TheChameleon2008 600 or 700 bucks if you factor in the price of an interface and an ipad.

Hey, I didn't know you were into this kind of thing! Hello!~♪💛🤍💜🖤

SAAAAME

Love this for you. Awesome. Great memorable layout. Love the work they do

As a non native English speaker, that term ”legally blind“ always puzzles me, are there people for whom being blind is ilegal? how does that even work?

@@aoterou It basically means the government recognizes that your vision is extremely poor even with special glasses/eyewear. You can think of it as "effectively blind" as opposed to "total lack of vision," however there's not always a big difference.

That’s actually not bad, I thought he meant 2999 at first 😅

All specs and prices are available at TE site/store , so yes it's 349eu/299usd :)

lol

Affordable ❤

Ikr

lol. I did the exact same thing but on True Cuckoo's channel.

We are not alone 😂

U will regret this decision guys.

@@Judasz696 you know what ? Already regretted and delivery refused on the porch 😂 Thankfully all the « something » gates happened before it arrived. As someone said I’ll get one after their transition from teens to adults…

@@Judasz696 Not everyone regrets the things that you have regretted. Some people have individual thoughts and opinions. Mine arrived and is in perfect working order.

Absolutely agree and they fixed the issue that Novation made with the Circuit /Rhythm in omitting a visual reference and chance to sample via onboard mic

@@lorrenaelliott161 True that all modern samplers should have onboard mic and polyphony which Circuit doesn't. However, the whole paradigm of Circuit is to do away with the screen, it's one of the main reason people love them and they've done a great job with clever use of color and encoders, you get quite sophisticated feedback. The whole TE paradigm when they include screens is to include a screen that's actually fun to look at, like a game - seems like it's expensive to design and build. This thing could easily cost 400 and people would still find it inexpensive I'm guessing.

​@@nebula0697 The problem with the circuit was never the lack of screens, it's: the very limited track number; skitzofrenic knob functions; and complete lack of creative effects. This thing seems like it has the hearth of a volca sample with the po-33 fun and a really playable form factor. Id's say its biggest competitor is elektron's model:samples.

Not for me they wont. Waste of money to me. Get a deluge.

@@joeymc5272 deluge costs 5 times this thing including customs and taxes lol, also entirely different workflow

🤣🤣🤣

I have some samplers...but this thing i have to have..so much fun man

paypal paylater was made for these type of things my guy lol

Bought one three minutes into this video…

sold out already

It's so crazy that this is more reasonable priced than their other equipment, but it makes sense I guess because they couldn't price it above the sp404 or MPC and expect to sell. I just knew it was gonna be more expensive than their synth,lol

A ton of them are defective. So many that they couldnt have not known, but sent them out to say to their share holders that filled the orders. They did the same thing with their mostly defective op-z's first run. I swear, that place must be run by teenagers. *smdh

@@jamesmadisonDC kinda of a rushed release like you say. I’m a MPC guy so don’t have a need for one. I appreciate their designs though and they look fun to mess around on.

Can't finger drum on this!

Just keep going after the sounds you want; you'll get there bruv, just enjoy! The more time you spend on your gear, the closer you'll get to what you want. It's just like any other musical instrument.. practice, practice, practice and don't beat yourself up. Keep coming back. 👍

The POs looked like pocket calculators, so it makes sense that the pro version looks like a desktop calculator. Chapeau TE

Add an MPC to print out the receipts and you’re set!

Not stupid mate 😅

just in time for christmas kids!

Nah man this one actually looks like a value if you like samplers.

@@clrs6576 Who in their right mind buys this gimmicky junk for 350 though? 🤦‍♂ The absolute state of hipsters these days man, yikes.

I'm by no means a hipster and I'm interested in it. @@drconflict629

Yesssss! Audiotool rocked! I remember using it as well but not understanding most of it. Years later-once I'd learned about synthesis and music theory-I found it again and it all made sense. It was lots of fun and you're right, this does remind me of that.

he is yeah; can see all through the market bs@@ext274

Ha! Me too 🤣

Haha same :D

Same...didnt even blink

hahaha@@tothefxckinmoon4540

Same here 😂

Me too this is what I imagined in my head I want one i just bought the novation circuit rhythm two weeks ago cause it reminded me of a grown up version of the KO and this has just dropped and it's only £300 not op1 price territory

This has scenes too kinda like the novation circuit rhythm...I hope this has the same pattern changing function as the po ko33

@@leewightman8619 Right?! I hope it too..can't wait to grab one and even the price tag is unusually nice this time probably because they completely fail with their desk and choir s**t!

@@hellf.o crazy that a sampler with all the moving parts is ove four times cheaper than that desk ....I just paid £300 for the novation circuit rhythm a week ago wish this was on the market then all save up and get it after Xmas....

Same 😂

It means only one - this is a piece of garbage for this money.

It's already sold out, this seems like a Black Friday 90% off sale price. And it'll be $1999 when it's back in stock. They sell a silly pocket mixer for $1299, the price of this makes no sense to me lol.

same here🤣

I agree OP-1 is WAY overpriced. I see why it cost more than this though. It has synths and you can use the tape deck to put together an entire song are a couple of t

​@@aariccallahan7371 the truth is shipping an electronic hardware product is one of the hardest things you can do in business, whether you're a giant like Nintendo or a pipsqueak like T.E. you need a lot of startup capital, it's a ton of time and work, and if your product doesn't sell you could lose an absurd amount of money or even go belly up. it's why Panic's Playdate console is $200 for what is essentially a gameboy with a grayscale Memory LCD (it's still cool imo.) they're a 25-person software company, they don't have the economies of scale to play in the consumer-priced electronic goods market with the giants. it's high stakes for them. with hardware you have to play the top of market until you get a strong enough footing to start playing in the realm of actually affordable stuff, where you need to move a lot of units. i think T.E. has been essentially playing the long game, slowly building up their "strength" by selling to the top of the market at low scale with a giant profit margin, and this is their first real gamble on selling to the regular consumer market. i think they are going to succeed because their stuff is really cool, it's just ridiculously expensive. people like me have wanted TE shit for awhile but never been able to justify it, besides the P.O. 33 - $300 is a very fair price for this imo. hopefully this is the start of them coming out with more mid-market stuff, the type of stuff that actual musicians who aren't already rich and famous can afford. i have enough money to buy an OP-1 and i still just can't justify it. it's so expensive, and for...what? at the end of the day it's a music tool, but it's an opinionated multi-tasker that puts you in its little limited world - which makes it more of a music toy or plaything, to make stuff within its little ecosystem. that's cool and all, but i'm not paying 2000 damn dollars for that, when all the tools for me to really seriously pursue my art form are significantly cheaper. it's a toy for rich kids and musicians that are already successful. if you really need to lay down keys on a production, are you going to reach for the $2000 machine with two octaves of toy keys? when you can spend $500 to get a full 88-key midi keyboard with real hammer action that feels like a piano? the EP-133 is one of the first ones that actually makes sense to me beyond "once i'm a millionaire i'll get the Lamborghini Urus, then after that, i'll get the OP-1..."

In love with model samples,, diferent strengs,,perfect friends, waiting for my Ep,,,😎

you will have more fun with this ..trust me

@@hakeemthecryptkeeperI reckon I will, more worried about ergonomics and durability than anything.

what about the pants?

Not my colour@@russ254

All of their releases are pretty cool

It's not made by Korg tho?

I think since this is the "ep series" they WILL introduce a synth like one with some sort of op1 style synths in it... at least a tb 303 or something even

I see what you did there ......

Agree totally. As fun as this looks and despite the reasonable price, regrettably I know I'll reach the same end point. Plus the voice limits as well. But if it is very cool. Just wish they'd gone a bit little bit further.

That's how they get you to buy the $1,500 mini mixer! Genius move actually.
