Making Music Without A Midi Controller Fruity Loops

Using with adobe CS6 suite (mostly premier pro and after effects) and fruity loops. Makes navigating around in your projects so much quicker and easier. Its incredibly stable for being so small, has precise frame by frame controls, its good looking, and overall a solid, well built product. I love how every function is programmable for different software and that it automatically recognizes which program you're in. For the price, you simply cant beat it.

While I'm new to the use of a midi controller, my Son, who is a NYC Music Producer and Nightclub DJ is coaching me on creating music on Garage Band. He as well thinks my Akai Controller is perfect for my particular use.

At first glance it can be easy to dismiss the Pocket Operator KO as a “toy”. Watching YouTube videos online it appears that the sky is the limit. Like many musical instruments you get out of it what you put in. I find the limited tool set to be liberating. Sampling and pattern making is a breeze and you can turn every day sounds into compelling loops. In the hands of someone who is invested you could create a whole beat or instrumental piece. It is not going to replace a Roland SP 404 or Akai, but given the size of the item it punches well above it’s weight. (Pun slightly intended). My main complaint that exporting any loops or patterns is a pain and requires numerous other tools. However, if you want to be able to play with music and loop making on the go it is an absolute charm. The build quality of the board is considerably more sturdy than looking at any pictures would lead you to believe, but I think a case of some type is needed if you intend to have this thing for a duration. Overall, if you want something that can make music without breaking the bank the KO Pocket Operator is really in a class by itself. I recommend this as the first PO anyone should get. Load up a few YouTube videos follow along how to use it then just go around the house collecting sounds, you’ll have a blast.

Great controller easy to use and affordable. It also come with a few free downloadable software to begin your music making.

holds my midi controller perfectly, real nice.

Top quality cables. Work perfectly with my midi controller.

I use this microphone for DJing, plugs directly into my midi controller and sounds crystal clear.

this controller controls EVERYTHING would need it to, and is a cobination of a GREAT midi controller for beats, and an EVEN BETTER control surface...the key for me is the LARGE FONT LCD....no more squinting with reason, i dont even have much need to look anywhere else, it almost feels like a stand alone device....AWESOME NEKTAR

Securely connects between laptop and midi controller with no issues or interruptions in data. Great value.

Easy to use and came with red 4 loops to attach. I use 2 on my Sony A6700 camera and 2 on my DJI RC-2 drone controller. For the drone controller, I had to buy separate Hook Screws. The quality also looks amazing.
