Excellent tutorial, thank you so much!

[@alfabutane]

My two fav things - Tracker and BOC! Awesome work man!

Thank you for the best Tracker tutorial yet. BTW: There is one more pattern view - hold Pattern and press two (out of four) parameters. I like to have all 8 tracks with Note and Instrument visible. 🙌🏻

[@Claidheambmor]

Wow, thank you! I didn't know this one, that's great to see the Note and Instrument views of all eight tracks without the effects. :D

[@CM0SRS]

biggest piece thank you

[@johnchesters81]

I’ve got a Tracker, but I must say this is an excellent tutorial. It’s paced really well and I learnt a couple of things (how to rename tracks & the random fx value). Thankyou.

[@matthewwilson3673]

agree, just got a tracker and this is better than the tutorials from all the usual big music hardware channels

[@aki_gong6271]

Very well explained and great sounding. Thanks so much for sharing it ;)

[@dietervoser4425]

Ich meine: das Beste Polyend Tracker Tutorial. Sehr gut !

[@rafa787]

very nice detail polyend tracker tutorial

[@scenario1236]

I understand and enjoyed tracking from back in the 90's Jeskola Buzz.. owning and learning the Polyend has come in fits and starts, but I am enjoying it thanks to your help!

[@lineplanevolume]

Saved all these Tracker tutorials. Great job. They'll really help me get quickly up to speed on the depth of this incredible little groovebox/workstation.

[@Meitao23]

Thanks for making this. I got my tracker yesterday and I feel like I’m a little bit more comfortable having done this. So much more to learn.

[@cloneroom]

Thank you so much. Like many, I am new to Tracker. This was exactly what I was looking for. Really helped me get going...cheers more more more

[@SyncdAlien]

Fascinating tutorial! Thank you!

[@TheJKOLP]

Awesome, thank you for this video! Helping me big time to get to know the Tracker right out of the gate

[@shitmandood]

Glad I found this. I signed up and got the samples. Walked all the way through it and it sounds great. I've been suffering some paralysis of analysis on this device, so it really helps to be able to copy someone end to end on how they did it just to go through the motions and figure out what the hell I'm doing. Sounds really good too. 50 more of those and I should be able to spread my wings and fly. 8-}>

[@JohnMark61355]

Thank you, this video was helpful.

[@zerozeroisland]

This is wonderful! Mine arrives tomorrow, and I can’t wait to follow along with this…

[@steveoath]

Exactly what I was looking for after picking up my tracker. Thanks. Subbed.

[@mrCharlesG]

Definitely very helpful tips here. Especially liked the beat slice feature.

[@evadum4149]

Wonderfull, i need one Polyend Tracker too :)

[@LabRatWarfare]

This was freaking incredible!! Great job!!

[@ufo_friend]

This is it! great work once again!

[@SteveMc870]

Fabulous tutorials. Really helping me grasp how the Tracker works. Thanks!

[@mrmasch550]

Great tutorial ! As always :)

[@thelemetric]

oh thats i nice cover. no wonder i am already subscribed.

[@movraptor]

fantastic video

[@stomcode]

To think the brothers did this with 90's or 80's gears is mind blowing.

[@kill_screen]

Yeh this sold it for me. Ordered.

[@TerekkiTerekki]

Excellent

[@sub-jec-tiv]

Great tutorial, new subscriber! Thanks for making excellent low-key videos. 👌✨

[@Unifono2012]

Very cool

[@dubbynelson]

I'd love to hear Olson by Boards of Canada on this thing! One of my favorite songs of theirs :)

[@AlchemicalAudio]

Good job!!! Thank you!

[@jdoodah]

Hey im Having a lil issue; with the tele a loaded I can’t perform on the PT pads like you, any suggestions please ? Thanks a lot

[@kevinbraiden9142]

Like the tutorial, nice work. Question. When you were navigating around down the Kick drum track (and other tracks) the lights were lighting up on the key pads. What were those lights indicating?

The lights show Notes or Instruments. You can set it to present the information on the current Track or the whole Pattern. Here is the example of showing Pattern Notes: kzbin.info/www/bejne/e6uXq4RvZ66Cl80&feature=emb_title

[@Digiphex]

I am not sure but it was related to all 8 tracks which were lighting stuff even though the sound was muted. I have since changed it in the Config. You can make them show so many different things in the Config to your liking.

[@omnifvck2596]

Shows what notes or what instruments are playing depending on which is selected, they light up muted or not

[@Jamslerr]

I've had my eye on the polyend since it came out. Is it enjoyable?where you be getting all those samples on the list?

[@Digiphex]

The samples in the project are on my Patreon. The other files you saw came with the Tracker for the most part.

[@omnifvck2596]

Its extremely fun, get one.

[@elekktrikk_home_video]

Great scanimate intro :)

[@nonoise3474]

Nice tutorial! Where can i find the samples?

[@jdoodah]

Sorry to have another little snag man, maybe you can help me out please? I’m having trouble with the vocal stutters, I’ve followed the video best I can and I’m on latest firmware but I’m new to the tracker. I have the vocal in beat slice mode like you have, and I made 8 slice points like yours and when I press the pads I have great sounding brief vocals, but when I record into the song it will play the whole slice instead of just a moment at the start, and gradually fades out towards the end of the slice. This means I’m not getting brief stutters in the song, but the stutter and then audio I don’t want gradually fading as it approaches the next slice. I think I’m missing something here, I’d really appreciate any help. I tried googling it but it’s hard to articulate. I only want the first second or so of each slice, I don’t know why it plays for longer with a fade out, I could make a bunch of slices but I’m trying to follow this and learn and I think that would be really confusing. Thanks so much!

[@Digiphex]

It's in my video at 26:00 where you use the envelope to give it that staccato gate that you want.

[@jdoodah]

Oh great, thank you! I got that far and got stumped. Really appreciate the reply! Knew I was missing something @@Digiphex

[@hcaz5818]

This is dope

[@ricardoagundez7261]

No tiene bocina interna ?

[@GradyNickel]

Is this project download available on the lowest Patreon level plan (101)? Also, why did you set those one-shot samples to beat slice?

[@Digiphex]

I am not sure, probably the 202. I put it on Beat Slice because you won't tune it chromatically by accident and get a bad result.

[@destress7730]

Hi Hi I downloaded a few years ago your BOC tutorial which i loved. I see you have uploaded 2 Polyend tracker Projects which are great too. I want to download the Patches only so does the 202 membership suffice for these patches to use on the Polyend Tracker? Many thanks Peter. PS have you got any more coming out for the Tracker because it would be great.

[@Digiphex]

At this time I have for the most part only packaged them as projects but the AFX Vordhosbn instruments are on the 202 membership.

[@destress7730]

@@Digiphex Cheers.Il sign up for the Projects.

[@petersambrini6693]

I've followed your BOC emulations since the start. Nobody does it better. Can i ask. I have an Octatrack and Isla S2400 on the way. Both great samplers in their own way. I'm considering getting the Polyend. But do i need another sampler. Ie. What does this bring to the party that others dont. I still don't know what to do. But i do love what you've done here as it seems so immediate. Cheers and well done!

[@77377]

subscribed, more pls! I ordered tracker and returned it after a fortnight because I couldn't click with it. Loved the design and feel of the unit, but all I managed to make on it was jungle or glitchy elektro. ((: The other thing was the lack of a timestretching algo and no multisample support, so most samples are confined to be used within an octave or so before they start to break down. /: Still interested in this instrument, but honestly I need someone to show me how to use it correctly lol. anyway: well done!

[@Digiphex]

I guess I make the synth samples myself so they are within the few octaves for intended use. Part of its charm is that slightly stretch tune you get with samples. You have to like that sound which is in BOC and Lone. It does have the timestretch tool as a "stretch and save it" but not live warp. Coming soon: Tutorial 2 Swing, Song Mode, and then Tutorial 3 Wavetable & Granular.

[@77377]

@@Digiphex Gonna watch 'em all I guess. (;

[@Claidheambmor]

That's a shame, I've been making nothing but lo-fi trance-y house on it and getting excellent results. I think a sampler really shines when you have a library of your own custom samples to use rather than multi-sample instruments, not least because the latter takes up loads of space and can sound a little bland without additional processing whereas personalised one-shots can be pre-treated for maximum texture.
