The POKKET GmbH
was founded in February 2010 in Berlin. Principal purpose of the company is the production and distribution of the Pokketmixer.

History of the Pokketmixer
During a car journey in November 2009 Christian Komm had the idea for a portable DJ-mixer. On a trip from Berlin to Amsterdam it happend that passengers in the car had an argument amongst each other, who was allowed to connect their MP3-Players to the car radio.

Christian was thinking that if we now just had a mini DJ-mixer, we would all have a lot of fun on our ride.

Back at home he was searching for a mini DJ-mixer, which runs without electricity and to which you can connect two MP3-players. But he could not find such a mixer. Being a professional radio and TV technician and an educated sound-engineer, he began to think about it and finally invented a so-called “passive set-up”. Soon after the development he applied for a patent and trademark

Together with his friend Robert Thomalla they built the first handmade POKKETMIXERs in a little workshop on an island near Berlin and sold them. Meanwhile Christian Komm and Robert Thomalla are the heads of the business POKKET GmbH. From a production line in Berlin they are now distributing the POKKETMIXER worldwide. This resulted in the opening of the Flagship store in Prenzlauer Berg.

(Hand) Made in Berlin
In the beginning the case was assembled manually piece by piece. For the first 1000 devices, we drilled 15.000 times, sawed 10.000 times and bended 1000 times apart from many other workflows. Besides, we also coated, made the silkscreen printing and inserted the electronic components manually. Finally, the whole instrument was put together and after a function test, packed for dispatching. (Hand) Made in Berlin.

Now a electronic manufacturer is assigned to produce the POKKETMIXER in Berlin.
