"The EP-136 is a full-featured stereo mixer that works with just about anything. That includes phones, computers, synthesizers, microphones, turntables and external effects processors, though some of these devices may require cable adapters. Once connected, volume is controlled via standard faders, like any other mixer. Each channel has a three-band EQ and a compressor."
"The unit also allows access to a number of onboard effects, including delay, tape saturation, tremolo and more. These effects can be adjusted via a pressure-sensitive pad and mod stick. There's a little full-color screen for fine-tuning. The EP-136 can even operate as a multi-channel audio interface and MIDI controller, which is always handy."
"Teenage Engineering used to be a company known for extremely expensive musical gadgets for a niche audience, but that perception is slowly changing. The EP-series samplers cost $329."

Each channel includes standard volume faders, three-band EQ, and compression. The mixer offers onboard effects such as delay, tape saturation, and tremolo, controlled via a pressure-sensitive pad and mod stick with a color screen for adjustments. It operates as both an audio interface and MIDI controller, powered by AAA batteries or USB-C. Priced at $180, it represents Teenage Engineering's shift toward more affordable products.
