Sample flips can be done on any sampler, but what makes one sampler different from the rest? For me, it's ease of use/workflow and in the case of the tiny but mighty Teenage Engineering PO33, it's the coloring of sounds with gritty lofi goodness.
In today's I want to run through one of my favorite workflows: using a Pocket Operator to chop up and sequence samples, then running the sounds into the SP404 MKII (with some cassette sim and compressor) to record additional live instruments, sequence the beat and perform it live.
The PO33 is a very limited machine, but it's gritty sample rate and intuitive pattern sequencing make for an interesting end result. Sending that colored sequence into the SP404 for further tweaking and additional instrumentation/layering creates an entertaining workflow and some very unique tracks as a result. Every piece of hardware has it's strengths and weaknesses, and putting several together that complement each other helps open up the workflow and gloss over some of the issues each piece has on its own.
