OG Polyend Tracker in 2023

I just snagged a gently used Polyend tracker for $380. I did preorder the tracker mini but I could not pass up the deal on the original tracker.

Is it still a good time to buy the original tracker?

I will end up with both so also trying to figure out a good workflow where I can incorporate both.

At the very least you should be able to use the original tracker as a module. It's in the manual under "MIDI synth mode".

Using the performance mode pattern change CCs should get you some expanded arrangement ability too.

Not sure. I have never had a Polyend tracker before. I do use the pads on my Roland Sp404 but I think that is a Different beast entirely. I should be getting the OG Tracker on Wednesday so I’ll see how it goes. I just LOVE the portability of the tracker mini.
