Pocket Operators are a line of miniature synthesizers, drum machines and grooveboxes, produced by the Swedish company Teenage Engineering. They were originally released in 2015 as a collaborative effort with the clothing brand Cheap Monday. They are inexpensive, with all main line models retailing for under $100. As of 2022, there are nine models in the main series, along with four limited edition models and an app.
They use custom segmented liquid crystal displays.
