With the drop of the 2.0 firmware for the Polyend Tracker Mini, I decided to install it and see what I could make with it.

I used three of the new synth instruments, WTFM, Perc and ACD. I generated several patterns of synths and built out the track.

I then grabbed a couple of samples for the kick, snare and a wavetable for a glitchy, 8-bit style synth.

After exporting the tracks, I went into Reason to add effects, EQ and Mix the tracks befofre mastering.

The new synth engines seem like a great addition to the tracker. That was always my complaint for the original. Ended up favoring the M8 because of it. Cool to hear it all in use here though. The beginning really kicks off with an oldschool vibe.

This is nicely unpredictable - cool bubbly bass & a touch of crazed randomness. Halfway through you channel a big Cyriak vibe, which is a HUGE plus in my book.
