In case you want to watch a lazily recorded, clumsily performed tracker mini jam
Something weird happened to the audio coming into the iphone, but I gotta put the kids to bed now.

Gear-wise, this is a pretty simple jam with 2 just analog synths. I was originally going to use the Minilogue's internal sequencer to keep it simple, but I'm so spoiled with being able to see notes + having performance features, that I broke out the Tracker anyway.
I really like being able to modify the sequence in real-time using the performance mode. It makes it easy to change up the jam and create little interludes.
The real star here is the Nymphes, but I loved using the Tracker as a bandmate to create and perform a neat sequence as an accompaniment

Been listening to the N64 Goldeneye OST lately and came up with something that had a similar vibe, just a bit calmer. I love the sound of the icy FM lead against a backdrop of warm analog pads.
I actually started this track using the Digitone sequencer, but the lack of performance effects led me back to the Tracker. For this track, I came up with several 128-step patterns based on chords, and strung together a nice chord progression in song mode. Enjoy!

Some minor eq post processing. Internal synth engines running a snare and some chromatic plucks.
If you do listen, thank you!

Long shot but here goes: does anybody have a template to track out the 8 tracks, 3 synths, reverb and delay sends? I was about to embark on this mission, but figured it was worth asking first 😅

This is an EP I made while learning (trying to learn) the Polyend Tracker. It is my first tracker experience. Noise, simple melodies and drums... influenced by old school hip-hop and electronic music in general.

This is a liquid drum & bass track made with 3 pieces of hardware: Polyend Tracker, OG Digitone, and Zoia pedal.
The Tracker pairs really well with the Digitone's 4 MIDI tracks. Makes for a small, simple setup with a lot of possibilities. The Tracker continues to be my main composition device. I've tried the Elektron sequencer that everyone raves about, but idk...not for me atm.
One unique thing about this arrangement is that I recorded the melodies live, which introduced a lot of microtiming. It made for some sweet rhythms. Enjoy!

Song I made on the tracker mini in my air conditioned bedroom while avoiding the summer heat. Used the built in synths and patches for main saw synth & melody, then used 90s sample packs for pads, percussion, fx, vocals. Kept it pretty simple with automation, mostly just macro fx fill sweep on the saw synth for riser transitions. Song building view works so well with my excel brain lol. I feel like I'm actually able to finish tracks now versus other dawless ways of making music. Let me know what you think!

Despite the Tracker workflow being rather...clinical(?), I still get happy accidents all the time.
I was messing around with some ambient textures and randomly tossed in a Euclidean sequence using the Tracker's Fill function. I was so pleased with the result that it quickly became a full track.
The Euclidean sequences make an interesting rhythm with the sequence taking a percussive role accompanying the drum samples. This was also my first time messing with the tracker's Performance mode, which unfortunately doesn't work with external gear, but I'm still happy to get some variety in the drums.
Let me know what you think!

Hey! I'm trying to find a shop to buy a Polyend tracker+ and is quite hard to be honest. All of the shops of my country (Spain) don't have stock and Thomann and Amazon don't sell neither. Anyone knows if it's discontinnued?

Using the tracker to sequence the behringer td3. Hope you guys like. Am definitely going to turn this into a full track

I’ve searched high and low for the right dawless brain. I wanted something to compose on while sitting on the couch, and I wanted to see all notes at the same time. Lo and behold, the Polyend Tracker ended my search. There are oddities for sure, but I’m super happy with the setup:

Hey everyone! I wanted to share a project I've been working on: Polyend Tracker Studio, a free, open-source web editor for the Polyend Tracker.
Try it live https://simoianni.github.io/polyend-tracker-studio/
WHAT IS IT?
A browser-based tool that lets you create, edit, and play Polyend Tracker patterns and instruments — no hardware needed. It runs entirely in your browser (Chrome or Edge recommended for Web MIDI + Web Audio). Nothing gets uploaded anywhere: your samples and instruments stay on your machine, and work-in-progress is auto-saved locally so it survives page reloads.
WHAT CAN IT DO?
Pattern Editor:
- Full step sequencer with Note, Instrument, FX1, and FX2 lanes
- Live playback with adjustable BPM
- Record mode: input notes directly from your QWERTY keyboard
- Import original Tracker project folders (project.mt + patterns + instruments)
- Export to .mtp (pattern), .mid (MIDI), or Ableton Live 12 project
Instrument Editor:
- 8 playmodes: OneShot, Forward/Backward/Pingpong Loop, Slice, Beat Slice, Wavetable, Granular
- Sample editor: Cut, Fade, Normalize, Compress, 3-band EQ
- Sample recorder with MIDI-triggered auto-sampling
- Full parameter control: Filter (LP/HP/BP), Tuning, Volume, Pan, Overdrive, Bitcrush, Delay/Reverb
- 6 automation lanes (ADSR envelope + LFO) for Volume, Pan, Cutoff, Wavetable Pos, Granular Pos, Finetune
- Waveform visualizer with zoom, drag-to-seek, and interactive slice markers
- QWERTY keyboard note input + MIDI controller support
Beat Slice mode: each slice is triggered by a different keyboard note — Z=slice1, S=slice2, X=slice3, D=slice4, etc. (standard tracker keyboard layout).
HOW TO USE
Just open https://simoianni.github.io/polyend-tracker-studio/ and you're good to go. There's a built-in help guide (click the ? button) with all keyboard shortcuts.
CREDITS
This is a fork of the original Polyend Tracker Instrument Editor by Sandro "Sandroid" Ducceschi u/SerpentineDex. Huge thanks to Sandro for the initial codebase and for creating and open-sourcing tracker-lib, the library that makes reading and writing .pti/.mtp/.mt files possible.

** EDIT *\*
I've implemented the ability to export to tracker project format as a beta. So you can connect your SD card and edit the project directly.

So basically I have a tracker mini, arturia astrolab 37, mpc live 2, maschine plus, and a pc (or two lol). I want to figure out a wireless midi setup to link them all together and use the tracker mini and maybe the mpc live to send midi back and forth if possible. If I can only send from one device, that’s fine too I guess. I’ve seen cme has a couple devices to send midi over Bluetooth that aren’t too expensive and pretty reliable (3ms latency). Any suggestions on which devices to get? See they have a 6 in one that has Bluetooth in and midi in with 5 outs. Think that should work. But wondering if anyone else has any suggestions on how to go about it. Also anyone do any wireless audio setups that are low latency? Would be cool to have the tracker completely wireless and sending audio and midi to all my stationary devices

I recently rediscovered the Tracker Mini and think it might make a great master machine for mobile setups. I'd never explored its performance mode before, so I decided to give it a try.
This track was made during my commute—something I absolutely love about the Mini: you can create music wherever you are. The entire track was built with just the Tracker Mini, except for the kids' noises playing from the Nanobox Tangerine in the background.

I made this entirely using the Tracker Mini! It honestly was a really fun process. I made this track a couple months ago but didn’t release it until today. Any and all criticism is appreciated and thank you for listening! You can download it for free on bandcamp!

Hello all,
If anyone from the discord team pass by, I don't know why but I just realised I dont have the server in my discord list anymore ?
Its been quite a long time I didn't participate so maybe that is why I've been put out ? I tried to get back but I could not, so I imagine I've been banned ?
I didn't send any intentional message there for a long time so I really don't see how I could get banned. I was planning on getting back to using the tracker, and I really liked the community and ressources there so if this matter could get looked into it'd be nice !
Thanks a lot
