Teenage Engineering PO-16 Factory

PO-16 factory is a lead synthesizer for keys and melodies, with a sequencer built on multiple real synthesizer engines. It offers 15 sounds plus a micro drum, parameter locks, 16 punch-in arpeggio and chord play styles, 16 punch-in effects and the chaining of 16 patterns.

Like all pocket operators, it is built on a single multi-layer circuit board with the vital components placed under the LCD display, so no outer case is needed and the space under the display doubles as a speaker box. It has a built-in speaker, a folding wire stand and a break-away hanger, runs on batteries for about a month of use, and has a 3.5 mm sync/audio input and a 3.5 mm audio/headphone/sync output: several pocket operators can be chained with 3.5 mm audio cables and played in sync as a pocket band, or used with other compatible music gear.
