Polyend Tracker

The heart says yes but the bank account says please, do not

Yeah, I saw this about a while ago and it does look good, but didn’t excite me as much as the tracker, though I think it might be more capable. The internal sampler and storage of the Tracker appeals too, since I move around a fair bit.

Aaaah tempt me not! I have a regular keystep already, and I like it but feel I should’ve gotten a beatstep pro. I’d like to have a play on some of these in person first but it seems harder and harder to find shops to do it in these days

Keystep’s polyphonic seq is good, beatstep pro’s patterns etc are great. Keystep pro have both, and dont even need to quantize.

I am thinking of buying a sequencer and the Polyend tracker looks like a nice way to make songs. I remember downloading and playing lots of mod files back in the eighties nineties :slightly_smiling_face:, but never got around making any tracks.

Do any of you own a Polyend tracker, and if so, what are your experiences with it and do you recommend it?

I dont own one. But i would recommend getting familiar with tracker software first like milky tracker or renoise. The benefit of a polyend is that it isnt just a hardware sequencer/tracker, but it also has a sound engine on board.

Try out Milkytracker, its free and will be a good dip into tracker style music making. Last thing you want is some kit that doesnt vibe with a workflow you want.
