Teenage engineering EP-136 K.O. Sidekick
The EP-136 K.O. Sidekick is a 2-channel stereo mixer designed for musicians who want to keep their setup light without sacrificing creativity. Compact, portable, and performance-oriented, it combines mixing functions, real-time effects, a USB audio interface, and MIDI control in an ultra-mobile format.
Designed to complement grooveboxes, samplers, compact synths, and other portable devices, the Sidekick acts as the central hub of a modern setup. Its 3.5 mm stereo mini-jack inputs and auxiliary input facilitate the quick integration of multiple audio sources, both in the studio and on stage.
But the Sidekick is more than just a mixer: it transforms mixing into a true tool for expression. Thanks to Motion Control™ effects, Knock-Out FX™, a pressure-sensitive Pad FX, and a Tap FX Sequencer™, it becomes possible to create dynamic transitions, shifting textures, and rhythmic interventions in real time.
Designed for mobile performance, the mixer can be powered via USB-C or AAA batteries. This flexibility allows you to play anywhere: on stage, in a home studio, on the go, or even in impromptu minimalist setups.
Thanks to its integrated USB audio interface and MIDI functions, the EP-136 K.O. Sidekick integrates seamlessly into a hybrid hardware/software workflow. It allows you to record, stream, or control a DAW while maintaining the immediate usability of a true performance mixer.
