Teenage Engineering PO-14 Pocket Operator Sub Bass Synthesizer
The Teenage Engineering PO-14 Sub is a deep bassline synthesizer with 16-step sequencer, 16 bass-oriented play styles, 16 punch-in effects, and parameter locks. It uses multiple real synthesizer engines to produce 16 sample sounds. There is 15 bass synthesis ranging from FM, phase distortion, wavetable to a physical modeled string, and one micro drum machine sound. You can further add 16 punch-in effects to enhance your song. You can also link the PO-14 Sub to other Pocket Operator synthesizers using the jam-sync function. While the synthesizer parameters are locked, the auto compressor and hardware limiter guarantee sufficient signal generation.
