Made to record
your EP-133 K.O. II

Plug in over USB and TR4 recognizes the device, captures true stereo, and arms itself. Press play on the K.O. II — recording starts on the first sound. Stop the groove — the take ends, rewinds and re-arms for the next pass. Record groups A/B/C/D onto four tracks without ever touching your iPhone.

1 — PlugUSB-C. TR4 shows the device by name and waits for signal.
2 — PlayRecording starts the instant sound arrives. Zero attack lost.
3 — StopThe take ends on silence, rewinds to zero and re-arms.
4 — RepeatSwitch tracks between passes and layer your set.

What’s inside

Auto-record on USB signalThreshold-armed with noise calibration. Your hardware starts and stops the tape.
Metronome with count-in3-2-1 count-in, and a visual beat — screen pulses on the grid when the click would leak into the mic.
