Teenage Engineering PO-32 tonic

Microtonic in a box

The PO-32 tonic is a killer drumsynth. You can sculpt your sounds on the unit or upload them from the Microtonic VST plugin. For the money it’s the best drumsynth around.

Great, specially with the microtonic app

The device is great just like any PO. It works very similar and the sound are very moldable with the A & B knob.

Still you are stuck with the sounds you get, that is the bad part. The good part is you can find sound sets and patterns on the web you can import.

The additional Microtonic app gives you the chance to create your own sounds and import them to the Tonic, but the APP is sold separately, only a 20% discount for Tonic owners.

Super Fun

It's a really fun toy/instrument to play with! You can take it to anywhere with you since its really small but sounds big! A good drum machine to buy.

my experience

pleasant to spend time on mobile, but definitely not enough for professional use

Great for any use.

I bought this PO practically because i just wanted to sample the different sounds that come with it.

I think that you can use it for music production as it has a sequencer and it's just really interesting to use.

I do not think it's anything groundbreaking, but if you like old school video game sounds and aesthetic, this is a wonderful instrument.

Great sound and programmability, but that's all.

Combined with Microtonic software this is a killer drum machine with tons of sound variations. Without it, it is limited and basic. The screen was wasted with silly graphics, a missed opportunity in all pocket operators.

A fun musical toy.

This toy is amazing. The sound quality is great. I've used it in many of my productions and I'm looking forward to buy some of the other P0

Interesting!

Interesting and unique tiny drum machine!

fun fun fun

this is a very fun toy to play around with, it is a little complicated to learn how to use, but when you learn it, it is a joy to play with. good sounds

Nice little pocket drum maschine!

Only con is that you have to own a tonic license in order to transfer sounds/sequences

Otherwise a nice little pocket drum maschine that can keep you companie on your otherwise boring urban transportation ;)

Cheers
