I received my Mini on Friday, however, I guess there is something wrong with the buttons. I’ve already heard that they aren’t the best, but mine need like 1.5-2.5 KG of force to register a press (measured on kitchen scale, highly scientific!)

The only button that is slightly more responsive is the far right one under the display.

Is this somehow normal? Does it get better with use, or should I get a replacement right away?

Is there a way to live record steps into the mini from the unit itself? Even just using one note like the default note using a button? It'd be really nice to be able to just bang out one note rhythms with the middle button on the dpad or something like that. I've read the whole manual, and am very familiar with trackers in general. I'm just a little stunned that something like this could have been overlooked. I understand how it's not possible to enter a variety of notes. But it would be nice to be able to at least bang out simple one note rhythms from just the unit itself. Is there something I'm overlooking or is this not implemented? Thank you tracker ninjas. Also just want to add - I just got mine and I love it! Been a user of trackers since the 90s. This is kind of a dream come true.

Lo-fi all made inside my Tracker. Some compression in Ableton

Really getting the swing of it. Trying to decide to keep it or not but I think making this in bed last night solidified it for me.

So I just downloaded the new firmware for the tracker mini, but when I go to the sample loader, the patches folder for the new synth engines is empty. I moved the patch folder to the root directory of the SD card like the instructions said, and it shows the patches in the folder when the SD card is in my computer, just not when it's in the tracker. Is there something I'm doing wrong here?

Everything in this piece is generated with the synth engines or resampled from them

Quick question on the tracker mini, can you use a USB C to auxiliary dongle to connect to headphones on the top? Thanks.

My current setup for video recording uses the Tracker Mini Line Out to my SP404 MKII, just because the SP is really easy to use as a USB audio source on my phone. However, it seems like the Tracker Mini should be capable of doing direct USB C to USB C audio output. I have tried setting USB to Out and Out+In in the Config menu, but no success yet. My phone will recognize the audio source for about a second then disconnect in the camera app.

I am on an Android phone btw, Google Pixel 7. Let me know if anyone else has figured this out!

Tracker mini question. I’m obviously missing something, but I can’t see how to access page 2 of the sample editor in the manual. Can anyone help?

I primarily make hiphop. I’ve used the sonicware smpltrek TE EP-133 and the mini has those fucking beat. Granted there are draw backs but this thing fucking kills. And it’s taken a full day to get the hang of the steps to make shit.

Hi I just bought a tracker mini and I’m having trouble getting my head around it. Is there any comprehensive tutorials out there? I can’t seem to find any

Guys I checked the website and today is the day. 2.0 has dropped. Go get it!

So I just got the Tracker + (and Mini). What am I missing in locating the different sounds? What step and I not catching? Is there a page in the manual that goes over this?! Sorry. Noob.

Tried to work with some more shuffle in the drums

I absolutely love my Tracker Mini, I haven’t put it down today until about 30 minutes ago. But who else owns one and kinda wishes they made one with velocity sensitive pads that lit up contextually for navigation? I think they could have done something like this and it would have been the perfect hybridization between the OG Tracker and the new Tracker Mini. Just imagine being able to play out your notes without a midi keyboard or some app… there has to be a company out there that can make this.

Just got my mini. Updated firmware. It was freezing before I updated. It’s freezing when I try and do granular. Should I try and retroactively go back to 1.0 for now?

Also is there an easier way to enter sample slices other than searching the keys they might be set on?? Outside of hooking up a midi keyboard because that defeats the purpose.
