EP-133 K.O. II

A compact sampler and groovebox that balances immediacy with surprising depth. The powder-coated steel chassis is smaller than a paperback yet houses a 64 MB memory that captures up to nine hours of mono samples. Sixteen velocity-sensitive pads and a crisp OLED screen guide everything from one-shot drums to chopped melody lines.

The 64-step sequencer now adds micro-timing, swing, and song mode, letting a loop evolve into full arrangements without menu diving. Built-in stereo effects, side-chain compressor, and punch-in performance tricks invite on-the-fly experimentation; resampling turns finished patterns into fresh source material in seconds.

A rechargeable battery, loud onboard speaker, USB-C power and MIDI, plus 3.5 mm sync for Pocket Operators mean the K.O. II moves seamlessly from café table to studio desk. Straightforward enough for beginners yet deep enough for touring beatmakers, it delivers a playful, portable take on classic MPC workflows in a device that feels like pocket industrial design.
