Hey, I thought it would be fun to take some time and talk about what we all use to make music/sounds/whatever it is we do with it.

    Recently moved so the setup isn’t perfect yet, but I’m quite content with the instruments themselves! The Keystep Pro sits at the center of everything but I’m a big fan of playful sequencers at the moment, so I often combine it with the Polyend Play or my iPad for sequencing experimentation. The fact that it can do Midi>CV conversion is invaluable to me, opens up a ton of possibilities.

    Currently, I have been messing around with:

    • Modular Rack (probably not worth going into detail here unless people are curious haha)
    • Cobalt8
    • Microfreak + MS70 for FX (not setup atm)
    • Polyend Play
    • Polyend Tracker
    • Meris Mercury7 in the fx loop for reverb (special shout out for this as it’s probably my favorite reverb)

    The one outlier here is the Polyend Tracker. I really love it but don’t often find myself using it with the rest of my gear and am usually using it as a standalone device. Maybe because I like to do a lot of playful experimentation with the rest of my gear, while my brain is a little more intentional with the Tracker? Curious if anyone here has had a similar experience, or has any ideas for creative ways to implement it!
