Polyend Tracker Mini

The Polyend Tracker Mini brings tracker workflow to a compact, battery-powered format. With an 8-hour battery and 5-inch screen, it's designed for music creation anywhere — on the train, in the park, or on the couch.

Tracker Workflow, Pocket Format

The 5-inch color display provides a sharp tracker interface with 32 responsive buttons for note input and navigation. Patterns scroll vertically with up to 128 steps, and Song Mode chains patterns across 16 tracks (expanded from 8 in firmware 2.0). The workflow is the same column-based approach as Tracker+ — if you know one, you know the other, and projects transfer between them.

Synth Engines

Five built-in synthesis engines mean the Mini isn't limited to samples. ACD delivers 303-style acid bass with resonant filter sweeps. FAT provides analog-modeled sounds. VAP handles polyphonic pads and chords. WTFM covers FM synthesis. PERC generates drums from scratch — kicks, snares, and hats without loading a single sample. Each engine's parameters can be automated per-step in the sequencer.

Sampling and Connectivity

The built-in microphone captures sounds directly — field recordings, voice samples, anything around you. Line input handles external sources at higher quality. 32MB of RAM (four times the original Tracker) holds around 8 minutes of mono audio, which goes surprisingly far when chopping samples into one-shots. USB-C handles power, 14-channel audio interface duties for recording into a DAW, and MIDI communication.

Who Is This For?

The Tracker Mini suits portable producers who want tracker workflow on the go:

• Commuters making beats during travel with 8 hours of battery life
• Tracker users wanting a portable companion to Tracker+
• Field recorders sampling the world with the built-in mic
• Synth enthusiasts exploring five built-in engines away from the desk
• Sketch artists capturing ideas that transfer to Tracker+ for finishing

For desktop studio work, consider Tracker+. For portable tracker production with synthesis, the Mini delivers.
