Polyend Tracker Unbiased Review (thoughts after 12 months)

I've had the Polyend Tracker for almost exactly a full year now, and since in my last review there were still a few major bugs which meant that I wasn't able to use it in the way I wanted to, or had expected to be able to. In this video I revisit my earlier review, in light of the various firmware updates that have happened since, adding features like the ARP, Slide, Horizontal Mode, etc. If you want the TL;DR, there's still a few strange bugs here or there, but it's far better than it was - a much more mature instrument than even a few months ago - and that deserves credit. I now really enjoy using it. For the rest, watch on through. Thanks to ‪@Polyend‬ for continuing to work to fix things and improve the Tracker overall, and for replying to my various e-mails asking irritating question. Especially with just a wee team taking on such an ambitious project. And before you ask, no, they didn't pay me or send this for free. I bought it with my own hard earned credit card.
