Polyend - Tracker+

From the very first bars, the Tracker+ model's 16-track sequencer structures your ideas with surgical precision and a logic inspired by historical tracking. You have 8 audio tracks and 8 tracks dedicated to MIDI or synths, with up to 128 steps per track and 256 patterns per song. This architecture lets you organise complete tracks, link variations together and manage an unlimited number of projects without any noticeable slowdown.

In terms of synthesis, Polyend Tracker+ comes with several sound engines that cover a wide territory without leaving your desk. The ACD engine recreates the spirit of single-oscillator monophonic analogue synths, the FAT is based on 3 virtual oscillators with drift and detune control, the VAP offers a 2-oscillator polyphonic architecture with modulation matrix, and the WTFM exploits a wavetable-based 2-operator FM synthesis. You benefit from 8 polyphonic voices and 3 active engines per project, which immediately densifies your productions.

For rhythm, the built-in PERC instrument lets you trigger 5 drum sounds simultaneously using just 1 of the 8 available synthesis voices. You can sculpt your kicks, snares or glitch textures using detailed parameters, then adjust each track using the built-in effects such as resonant filter, delay, reverb, compressor or 3-band EQ.

Sampling is done in mono or stereo, with several playback modes such as 1-shot, Forward, Backward or Ping-pong, and automatic or manual slicing to cut your loops precisely. The USB connection handles 14 stereo audio tracks and works as mass storage to simplify transfers to your DAW. The faster microcontroller, extended memory, reinforced thumbwheel and backlit silicone pads ensure reliable, enjoyable control over time.
