“Polyend Tracker Wonky Beats, chilling with Cookie 🙂

The Polyend Tracker is a tabletop synthesizer and sequencer combo that reimagines the classic “trackers” from the 1990s. It has sampling, wavetable, granular and an FM radio built in.

The Behringer CAT is a re-creation of the infamous Octave CAT synthesizer. We at CatSynth are looking forward to doing a side-by-side comparison in the near future.
