    Teenage Engineering's Pocket Operators offer tiny battery-powered synths and a range of sounds across a collection of six devices that cost $59 each. Czech synthesizer company Bastl Instruments has a new pocket-sized synth of its own with the Kastle: a modular instrument that runs on three AA batteries. The company says the lo-fi device is ideal for beginners and pros alike as it can be put to work alongside other small gadgets like those Pocket Operators and Korg's Volca series. Kastle can also be used as part of Eurorack system or connected to other full-size gear.
