This device has been strong since release, thanks for the continued support

[@3lackavar]

Best hardware purchase in the last 10 years and keeps improving with free updates. Love this machine and Polyend's dedication to improving it.

[@insektgod]

This is super awesome!! Thanks Polyend...Still hoping for colors in the Pattern editor... color bricks please.

[@justal915]

So glad to see someone mention this cos Ive thought this too and reckon it would be a great little addition for speeding up the process of moving patterns around in song view!

[@Rilkir]

YES

[@WxkR]

The tracker is one of the pieces of hardware I have truly loved from its launch. And I am super happy about Polyend using it to show that not only can they produce innovative instruments but that they're behind them in support and updates no matter how long they have been in the market. I think we, electronic music makers, are changing our consumption patterns. It is not about having the latest box, but about using (and reusing) what we have to its full potential and for as long as it is functional. It's like many of us have learned that over-consumption of gear is a creative dead-end. Our times call for gear austerity, and creative prosperity. As consumers by obligation, our ethical stance should be to always avoid acquiring anything that does not promise to be usable for many years.

[@rorz999]

I dunno man, companies are pumping out new boxes all the time. But if less people buy them, which is a very real possibility in the current economic climate, they might have to continue supporting 'older' gear. I also think that technology isn't advancing as fast as it was before

[@jimmac]

Happy to still see updates to the old fella! Thanks, Polyend!

[@ytandrae4211]

Amazing - so cool to see the Tracker being well maintained. Most importantly it's good to have mod import back - this is the #1 feature for which I have bought the device in the first place. Thanks for listening to user feedback, Polyend!

[@vvlvmusic]

That’s fantastic. 1.8 let’s go 🎉 can’t wait to load some mods. Snap to zero 👌🏻

[@CHONKERBOT]

I just went to send you this to tell you about the mods! I can't wait to get mine!

[@redboycaptures]

Fantastic. I am surprised it didn't take off as much as I wanted to but Tracker is one of the most productive tools I have ever used. Great to see continued support despite the launch of the mini. Long Live Polyend

[@RonCavagnaro]

So cool thanks polyend!

[@_Spacebar_]

Thank you for continuing to support this device.

[@Jin-Hu]

Frickin’ amazing, love Polyend. Thank you for the encoder kit btw, just swapped it out now, super easy. Though I did wait for a good solder iron and a desolder pump to more gently remove the old encoder ✌🏼

[@Harzurner]

It's getting seriously good with the updates!

[@joecat4115]

These updates are really appreciated!

[@discerninglight1998]

So glad I invested in this device during pre-order days! I don't have lots of money to spend on devices. I am grateful for these updates and keeping the excitement!

[@keshetallekaridi708]

[@devioustrip5728]

Please polyend bring back the ability to play nes roms im not sure why it was removed

[@activelow9297]

Allright.. this deserves a post. I dragged my PT out of the closet and set it up today to install the 1.8 update, after not having been a PT user since 1.3...... update when fine, then I loaded my gigantic collection of samples onto the SD card and thought I would give it a try. In the Sample Loader I tried to load up one of the directories and it hung for about 3 minutes. Then when it came back, it showed one of the directories as 30 different directories (2500-2599, 2600-2699, 2700-2799, etc). When I tried to enter one of these directories, the unit hung up again for another 2-3 minutes before displaying the samples. It did this every time I tried to enter/exit a directory. Sorry Polyend, but it got unplugged and thrown back in the closet again. It is absolutely unusable without a proper file browser. I had hoped this would have been corrected by now (3 YEARS since I bought this new), but it hasn't. What is the problem here??????

[@amazingmono]

Thank you!

[@siatek_nah]

[@haraldriegler6000]

Thanks for the update! 👍

[@yaire8648]

I was thinking about doing a request for naming patterns.. You guys are psychic.

[@user-qu9sj8st3r]

Please make a function to pitch shift the loop to fit the bpm. Like renoise beatsync.

[@mk1st]

[@holgerspace]

is the Nintendo Emulator still implemented in the OS?

[@mokujinsan9946]

I love you fam. No seriously. ❤️

[@marvamk]

I really missed the spontanious way I used amiga trackers in the 1990s . So I bought two Polyend trackers one for Homestudio and one for on the road, and think that this is still a great tool. The only thing, that was putting me off, is, that you cant sample while playback. Thats so annoying if you like building while playing. I would REALLY appreciate any method to be able do that with the tracker. Otherwise I always need anoter recorder to make full tracks with vocals or other instruments.

[@vivirmosengalego9613]

Great! When will you have an update to the Polyend Play+?

[@MrXamanX]

There is one bug not resolved.first step when played seems like it has lpf or velocity fx on it after that continues normally.also when playing sample is the same issue,click preview the sund is dull click it again is normal click it again after sometime is dull,mostly heard that on kicks since they have big transient.I went back to 1.6 everything was normal but on 1.7.1 and 1.8 the issue remains.

[@yunggaucho3534]

Can anyone help?? I can’t get my device to update. I moved 1.8 pft to the firmware folder but when I open it upon the tracker it’s empty

[@anghelyi]

Sooner or later I have to buy one....

[@learnerslikeus]

labels

[@kortkunig2291]

Can I haz firmware source code?

[@dtrelzmusic]

where are the damn updates for polyend play!!!!!!!!!!!

[@blackradowan8465]

Are there different samples or new ones?

[@hasan7786]

Continued support is great but I saw all of those updates as things it should have had on release. The sample time keep incrementally getting longer with updates. I remember selling it then seeing an update for "better reverb" like wth, what makes it better and why wasnt it better when i had it. Just makes me ask a few questions. I want to dive back in but might just wait for 2.0 if its not discontinued by then.

[@vintagetelefly]

thx for your frequ. updates- // shift *Jogwheel - my favourite hope that click and freeze issues are solved!?

[@zetrel]

Awesome!
