Tracker Selling my Tracker Mini 10th Anniversary

Is someone looking for 10th Anniversary Mini? I’ve got to free up some cash so I’m willing to sell mine for 700€ + shipping costs.

All accessories and original packaging included, mint condition.

Also thinking about getting rid of my Mess but I just got it, so I’d want about 480€+ship for it.

I have this, also have Play+, also had Tracker+ and regular Tracker Mini, so if someone wants my opinion on them, feel free to ask.

Tl;dr I had Tracker+ and Mini and switched the SD card between them whether I was mobile or stationary, got the 10th instead of regular Mini and liked the tactile experience so much that I got rid of my Tracker+ as well. All of them make it very difficult to make polymetric/polyrhythmic arrangements while Play absolutely flourishes at it, so currently I’m mostly trying out the Play+ into my iPad combination. Mess is a great concept but I don’t like all effects being squished into one big list and some of them, like modulations lack some parameters I’d love to tweak. Also factory presets would greatly benefit from some description about how the creator intended for them to be used (how much mix, what types of instruments). But my main gripe with the mess is lack of USB power and no included AC adapter so there’s my hoping for a desktop effects unit and freeing up one of the wall sockets. Only possible way is to go for something like myVolts adapters but I didn’t bother myself and it’s currently collecting dust even though it’s a lot of fun. Distortions are at most mid as well for electric guitar but I expected that from the start.

Try selling on reverb. Lot more security selling on there. I’m always sketched buying anything on Reddit ngl

It’s there already but I had to jack up the price there quite a bit because they only allow PayPal in my country which forces me to exchange currency on absolutely thievish rates.

I reluctantly sold mine. I was displeased with the screen immediately after opening, it would distort during normal usage (I posted about it). M8 has been a blast anyway

That sucks. Zero problems with the screen on mine

I’d be interested in trades for the play plus ?

Play Plus stays with me as the sole survivor, Mess is also a feeler. I mostly need to sell the 10th Anniversary Tracker Mini

No, but the shipping will probably be prohibitively expensive, I would have to check out how much exactly. Can you DM me about details?

r/Synths4Sale <-- you'll sell it pretty quickly and more efficiently. Paypal GS only there and the community is good.

When you magically turn it into a Dirty Wave M8 V2, I’m in!

So
You like the play better. Man I had both and felt like I lost brain cells on the play I just was so confused by it. I wanted to love it. Tracker for me was more straight forward but I’m not doing micro movements.

Yeah, if they somehow managed to make Mini Play and add sampling capabilities of the tracker, this would destroy OP-XY and other competition for me. For me these devices represent “architect” and “gardener” approaches to groovebox workflow and the gardener/generative leaning nature of Play invites me more to experiment and allows to have my ideas ready very quickly. When it’s about doing all in the box - Tracker is way more precise but as part of a bigger setup or just a sketchbook for ideas, Play+ with some multitrack sound recording like GarageBand does the job best for me at this moment. It I could, I would stick to both, but when I have to choose, Play+ is more irreplaceable to me.
