Polyend opens up Tracker hardware line with source code release

Original: Polyend’s Tracker, Tracker Mini and Tracker+ are the latest hardware devices to go open source

Music hardware maker Polyend has released the source code for its Tracker, Tracker Mini and Tracker+ instruments, making them open source. The move lets musicians and developers study, modify and build upon the software behind the groovebox-style devices, following a broader industry trend of synth and sequencer makers opening their platforms to the community.

Why now: Open-sourcing popular music hardware is a notable shift that excites the music tech community about customisation and community development.
