Teenage Engineering EP-133 K.O. II

I’d just like to point out how quickly this thread has almost hit 1,500 posts. It has to be some kind of record.

Was just looking at the M8 thread, and it took them about 1.5 years to hit 1,400 posts.

Just an interesting observation. There seems to be a lot of excitement around this release.

Exactly, I bought some beer today and I had to open it myself.

Pretty much the same thing.

As we now anticipate on receipt of the KOII, some light corrective engineering may be required.

This anticipation, reminds us of being teenagers.

I would not put it past TE management that they might have instructed their manufacturing team to deliberately f*ck up the fader a little as it is all part of their expert insight into ensuring ownership-attachment syndrome. Like breaking off your PO hang tag.

If you really love your KOII, you’ll open it up, perform some minor heart surgery in your dad lab, make it yours and feel satisfied with your handiwork.

I’m already impressed with the backstory of their buying up whatever component they could get during COVID and then deciding what to build. Even more impressed with their sending it to Barcelona to build it. That’s pretty cool to invest in the talent there with an exciting product roll out.

I’m not saying it doesn’t

Ordered mine from TE in US, still not shipping confirmation.

Is there anybody in here who ordered around the same time as me?

order date: 22 November, 2023 - 21:24
order #: 2014221

Oooh watch out… last update was from the year 2000! The year 2000!

I’m too wasted to think of a witty reply except yeah

Hey, it’s understandable to question the rush to buy new gear. But let’s not forget, everyone’s excitement and eagerness to try new technology is what drives innovation in our community. Experimentation is key in music production, and new tools inspire that. Let’s respect individual choices and focus on the creative possibilities this sampler brings to the table.

TVs are wall mountable though too, so it’s not quite the same thing.

I bought a sea bass today, had to descale, gut, season and cook it.

Already posted several times.

Just remembered, I think there was a Moog synth that was self assembly as well. Those two things seem more educational though. This seems different. Of course, if problems weren’t cropping up, I doubt it would stand out.

oops, thanks

(though still a great demo, so fist pump for Bo)

You were required to do none of those things. I usually just bite my sea bass.
