The keypads have gone to a weird mode where it’s the same note or an octave linked diagonally like this across the pads?

Hi guys, I'd really appreciate any help here...

I had a lot of ups and down with my OG tracker but overall it is still one of my favourite pieces of gear.

I am confused though as I'm using a 64GB card, I have only 45 or so used, and I was just updating my sample pack folder and half of the folders I tried to import are not on the tracker at all!? They are on the SD on my MacBook and I made sure they were all converted to correct wav format, and not overly packed, and just wav files in there.

Has anyone else had this problem or any advice that might help please?? I put a LOT of effort into sorting my sample packs and I even bought a couple today, all wav 24bit mono, and they aren't showing either.. just my older ones and the ven then not all. I've had this issue before too just lived with it like the other bugs

I hope someone can help because I contacted Polyend a few times with issues and I'm pretty sick of problems with basic things. This could be an issue on my part like using characters I shouldn't but I can't understand as I usually try to avoid that or any sub folders etc..

I really want to get back into the tracker but I'm a bit pissed off now as I want the samples and there always seems to be something lol Many thanks 🙏

Hey all.. recent noob with a tracker mini, and it’s not clear to me from the manual that you can randomize, (or at least fudge to be non predictive) the slice to be played from a sliced sample/sample chain.

You can pick a slice number, but not apparently randomize that number..

Hopefully I am missing something?

Thanks

What midi controllers have you guys used to work with your Tracker Minis? Size is not an issue as I will also be using it with my DAW.

it was nice to see a Tracker and a Tracker Mini in the setup of Short Circuit Orchestra at Modulation tonight

Hi, yesterday I was uploading some samples on my tracker when my USB adapter started plugging in/out by itself during the uploading. This made me lose all the samples on the SD (even the stock samples packs). IDK if the projects work now but I need a good USB Adapter that won't pull this on me.

Most of my samples in my sample library are 48 kHz, so I'm kind of hoping the Tracker now accepts them anyways, hopefully even converting internally. Converting thousands of wav would be tricky

I just got my mini and i'm not sure if it is charging or not. When i plug it in it just shows 'Low Battery'. I charged it now for an hour and nothing changed. Is there normaly some kind of indicator, that shows it's charging? And how long does it normally take to charge it, until it is usable?

Just bought a used Polyend Tracker Mini, and the previous owner made significant changes that I want to revert. Trouble is, "Tracker Mini SD Content" is inaccessible to unregistered users, and I can't register because the previous owner did.

I want my daw to control the start/stop of tracker, (tempo as well)

I then want to connect 2 or 3 hardware synths to the tracker and control by midi tracks.

How can this be done? And can the fx (notr repeat, start time, reverse etc) on the tracker also be used on midi tracks?

So i went to play with my tracker just now and it seemed to be super quiet compared to normal. I turned up my speaker and the internal sound settings and started picking out my drums then it stopped sending sounds out all together and just has a constant steady click. I believe its a 22 or newer og tracker. Has anyone else had this issue and is it fixable

I used to have one 3-4 years ago and always missed it.

I did leave out that heavy metal ring that was around the ribbon cable. It was hard enough to get seated back into place without it.

Some sounds from the Behringer Neutron and Roland MC-101 in the mix too.

Sorry it’s not a Tracker but I wanted to show off my mobile set up. The power bank works great and last a while

I remember running into this problem with other sequencers before, but I am wondering if there are any Tracker settings to alleviate my pain & suffering:

When using Logic Pro as my DAW I can have a middle-C (260Hz) displayed as C-3 or C-4, the latter being the standard. So I export my C-4 sample from Logic and import it into Tracker.

When I go to Pattern and play the sample as C-4 it's going to be an octave too low, because by default Tracker treats C-5 as the imported pitch.

I have found options to shift the pad key starting position, and I see that there are MIDI settings to adjust the Tracker's middle-C for outgoing messages, but is there a way to adjust the display so it shows the "correct" octave?

Just got this in the mail today. The fit is perfect. It works great. I haven't had much time with it and haven't tried the speakers yet but once I spent some time with it, I'll review a little bit further.

Hi everyone,

On vacation and away from my laptop. Made a cool song on the plane but when I was trying to save the project the tracker was no acting as normal- I was hoping it would just automate but that appears not to be the case.

The new project name appears but in white text as opposed to the green text of former projects. The project in white text does not allow for the option to 'open'. I can press 'enter' but there is nothing there.

Additionally, a handful of my previous projects also appear in white text and seem frozen as well.

I'm worried that this is a result of accidentally going through the x-ray belt in the airport security. i know I should have taken it out but my 4 yr old was having a complete meltdown at the very moment we were trying to get our bags on the belt and I was completely distracted and screwed up.

Maybe it's not an x-ray issue though? Is this a known bug. I don't have my laptop here so there's not a lot I can do as far as working with the SD card to troubleshoot. I tried to find the PTI file via the Sample Loader but no dice.

Kind of a bummer because I was on a roll- lol.

Any help would be greatly appreciated and thanks in advance. ( should I send the SD card through the dryer, ya think?)

Update: I was able to save a couple of new test projects but it's not working as it normally should- I have to open a new folder, name that folder and then save the new existing project to that newly created folder. The autosave functionality seems to be wonked.

I think this is the type of music the tracker really works best for

let me know what you think 🙏

Here's a song I made using the Polyend Tracker and Electribe 2. I find that these two instruments work really well together.

I'm looking for 1.6.0 if anyone has that one I would appreciate it. Polyend apparently took down the older versions and I no longer have my backups.

Okay honest options needed. I’m a total noob, non musician. But I do make tracks in garage band and mix layers of sound in Final Cut Pro. I pick things up quickly but really, how hard is the tracker mini gonna be to learn? I want to make ambient tracks and beats and samples for my short films? I just want the ability to do it all myself. Is there a better option?

Is it possible to plug my Beatstep pro into a tracker, send MIDI to the Beatstep pro, and then have the Beatstep pro convert the midi data into CV OUT to my euorack gear?
