Teenage Engineering Pocket Operator PO-20 Arcade

The Teenage Engineering PO-20 Arcade is an arcade synthesizer and sequencer, with parameter locks, chord control and punch-in effects.

Pocket operators are small, ultra portable music devices, with studio quality sound and the flexibility to make music on the go. Affordable for everyone and compatible with all other music gear.

All pocket operator models perfectly complement each other. From drum machine, bass and lead synthesizers to noise percussion, the various unique units allow you to start a pocket band. Use them separately or connect them together, the choice is yours.

small device, big sound

Use the built-in speaker for instant sound, connect a pair of headphones for detailed personal listening, or hook up a speaker system and the club will go boom!

Pocket operators are designed on a single multiple-layer circuit board using high quality components. They all share a compact and durable form factor.

By placing all vital and sensitive components under the LCD display there's no need for an outer case. By saving this cost, high quality components could be used to guarantee the best possible sound and very low power consumption. The space under the display also doubles as a speaker box.
