I'm completely new to Polyend Tracker and wavetable synthesis. This tutorial is immensely helpful to get the grip on it. Before deciding to go for the Tracker, I thought maybe I would instead get a synth, not knowing that actually I would get a very flexible synth inside this sequencer/tracker. Such a good choice
Love my tracker. It's like my midi controller than can also add it's own elements. Great video BTW. I've never really used the wavetables but will look at them now
Thank you for your videos and all the work you put in these tutorials. Would it be possible to make a tutorial about squarepusher or wisp? It would be nice to learn something about these massive changes they have in their music. I am a huge fan of them, Aphex and BOC. Thank you! Stay safe and take care! Bye Spleenex
Hi! Thanks for another great informative video :) I have a suggestion, maybe you can make a video where you show all your gear, say what you like/dislike about it, what it fits for best etc. I would be extremely interested in a video like that!
Super useful video. Thanks. I'm interested to know where you got the PPG wave descriptions from, e.g. Clipper, Organ syn etc. Is there a source for these, or did you rename them yourself? Thanks.
It doesn't but those ideas sound cool. Clock divide and multiply per track with 8 tracks going different speeds and lengths would be incredible to watch.
I looked at a fair number of wavetables from that site you mentioned...and the segments don't cycle [loop] on many of them. do I have something set wrong or are the tables just not that good. infant the diagrams dont match what shows in the the tracker. its off, only slightly....but I would assume that adds some buzz, or the buzz I'm hearing. I wonder if the sample rate or bit depth need to be changed to fix this? what was the bit depth on the PPG? adding I looked it up....and PPG was 8bit and PPG2 was 12 bit. do you think that this may affect playback in the tracker. the taels downloaded from that site you provide are 16bit
I can only speak for the PPG ones which are perfect. You have to be using Wavetable playback method under the Sample Playback button. Then choose Window 256 at the bottom of the screen and the Position should be 0-63 which are the 64 oscillators.
@@Digiphex I did do that. thanks. must be something with the tracker. just made a cycle in WaveEditor...and played with the PPG tables in the WaveEditor. and they sound good. serious buzz introduced in the tracker. it works better cycling than in WT mode. [cycling the 256 samples]

Such a lovely tutorial series. BoC, DM and this awesome piece of hardware!
I am loving these Tutorials..thank you, thank you. Keep them coming...
Great stuff. Thanks for sharing. Really great learning 👍
Great video as always. 🤘🏼🎹🎛
What can I say ... You mastered !!
Love my tracker more than a hot biscuit.
@@3minati me me me so love it
Fantastic video! Lot's of helpful tips
Great job! Thanks for putting this tutorial together!
Thanks for making these

Did you know that one of the Depeche Mode guys was in Yazoo? He wrote the Yazoo song "Only You".
Vince Clarke? Duh! The album this song is featured in is actually the first album without Vince Clarke, and is written entirely by Martin Gore.

6:09 I think Depeche Mode use Delay Lama back then

From the VST version of the PPG Wave.
@@Digiphex Thanks a lot. I actually have that (somewhere). I'll take a look :)
really sweet! does the tracker have individual track lengths? and can you use the pads for xox sequencing?
It doesn't but those ideas sound cool. Clock divide and multiply per track with 8 tracks going different speeds and lengths would be incredible to watch.
@@Digiphex cool thanks. keep it up!

How did you find those PPG waves on that site...there was no search index, just 662 pages to click through! :o :D
At the bottom is a button "download all at once" and in that folder you see the PPG and the others.
@@Digiphex I saw that but I was worried how many GB's it might be :D
