The Deluge was already doing more than anything in its class, but the hardware and firmware upgrades Synthstrom has done over the years really set my expectations for all other companies. Good to see Polyend following suit. Hopefully other companies will take note as well. \nSynth companies should take a page out of Fender's book and focus more on creating a long lasting, modular design that stands the test of time.","like_count":88,"author_id":"UCsRYxGoMRC3lp4NNsDO2yJQ","author":"@davidlynch4338","author_thumbnail":"https://yt3.ggpht.com/ytc/AIdro_kCsktaj1Al4KKDkCPfMYdBGkng2OXNlYvRkDRge-3Yxg=s88-c-k-c0x00ffffff-no-rj","author_is_uploader":false,"author_is_verified":false,"author_url":"https://www.youtube.com/@davidlynch4338","is_favorited":false,"_time_text":"2 years ago (edited)","timestamp":1727827200,"is_pinned":false},{"id":"Ugyr98wZRKRRbCXkm-p4AaABAg.9xLsX0-8FiF9xNLj5F21go","parent":"Ugyr98wZRKRRbCXkm-p4AaABAg","text":"This.

This could come slowly into the mind of the big vendors. I saw on the Korg UK site a \"Nautilus AT\" upgrade option (but not available now) that seems to target users that are unhappy with their flagship synth not having aftertouch. Ok, we'll see if that comes to life. Korg seems recently be a bit insane with their price policy, and if AT retrofit for a Nautilus 88 costs 600 Pounds plus 2x 50 postage or so, it's a bit much...the AT version itself costs now 530 Pounds more than the Nautilus w/o AT, and it's not for the 73 keys version and it's not Poly AT.\n\nRegarding the Deluge, I think this machine is now very interesting for users like me, as I really wanted to have it but not without a proper display. Sadly, the instrument is not available in normal shops, which has its own charm, but needs the buyer to pay import taxes and manage paperwork (maybe that is now done by the shipping company). \nAnd if you have it, and if you are unhappy with it, I don't now, send it back to NZ...instead to Thomann...or sell it on ebay...that's a bit adventurous.","like_count":2,"author_id":"UCcmsPrhvTzQ1RTRF524u05Q","author":"@pontram","author_thumbnail":"https://yt3.ggpht.com/ytc/AIdro_nWGZJVcv8HvyWAWe2pCsIJkTcOobMJJpbAYH0MJSSInA=s88-c-k-c0x00ffffff-no-rj","author_is_uploader":false,"author_is_verified":false,"author_url":"https://www.youtube.com/@pontram","is_favorited":false,"_time_text":"2 years ago","timestamp":1727827200,"is_pinned":false},{"id":"Ugyr98wZRKRRbCXkm-p4AaABAg.9xLsX0-8FiF9xYs7QZP5EV","parent":"Ugyr98wZRKRRbCXkm-p4AaABAg","text":"I have owned both- Synthstrom took my money for the last hardware upgrade, and never delivered... 9 months later, they did send a refund, but I had to ask for it.","like_count":0,"author_id":"UClBCi5TpnTXorbRke79UyLw","author":"@BradandChrista","author_thumbnail":"https://yt3.ggpht.com/Sv8Ieg6z3J0_aneypVDMH5L5CM9zhEoqDEcMXMVKC_vrlrVAutPTu9H06Gx4igRkBBThF6aZ=s88-c-k-c0x00ffffff-no-rj","author_is_uploader":false,"author_is_verified":false,"author_url":"https://www.youtube.com/@BradandChrista","is_favorited":false,"_time_text":"2 years ago","timestamp":1727827200,"is_pinned":false},{"id":"Ugxp4Pt3m4vfOYD9fdF4AaABAg","parent":"root","text":"someone's got to give synthstrom a shout-out here, for setting a precedent. \nearly adopters of the deluge were madly enthusiastic about the machine, but almost all of us wished that the screen used grown-up writing instead of a toddler's red crayon. they listened, they made it so, with an affordable & simple hardware retrofit. then they made the firmware open-source. \nI dunno, lads.

I was inspired by it and bought one. Most unfortunately, I returned it within 3 days. The reasons being the loading times, the lack of separate outputs, the lack of cv gates, and i just was a bit disappointed by the actual size. It is really small. Also the fact that i can not cancel the loading of samples was quite annoying. Especially when it ends up not being able to load everything cause exceeding memory limits.  Also it is not really a 16 track sequencer. It has 8 audio tracks and eight midi tracks. And maybe it is because i have bad coordination or big hands, but  when changing values, i often “hit” another encoder and accidentally changed the wrong values. Damn annoying! You might like this one, i ordered an MPC Live 2😂. I think it is ok to conclude that the Polyend ecospace is more of a niche playground.

You do a great job.

Files corrupting, project missing or swapping files.  Crazy stuff!  Anyhow, now I learn my 5 month old device is a Legacy device and if I want I can pay 400 more to upgrade.  So the unit I have lost 400 in value and to regain its value and added functionality pay out another 400..  I feel insulted and truly disappointed that the company you gave great endorsements, has failed me.  You bear no responsibility regarding this!  I trust you completely.  But Polyend did not think the upgrade or how its recent customers would  feel!  \nIf my unit was 4 years old or 2 years old, OK, I understand the program and the costs.  But They are not responding to email, or support tickets I sent. That is a huge NO NO in my book.  I mean at least acknowledge you got my support requests.  The Back stage forum is not a place for answers, IMHO.  I'm so frustrated to have my play looking at me in my studio, it can't hold samples properly or corrupts them and now it is a door stopper?

I appreciate PolyEnd having an upgrade path - as a software engineer, I know that a significant upgrade like this costs.\n\nFor those complaining about upgrades, a year after I bought my $12k ExMachina Quasars, there was a MK2 and the upgrade costs $1600 with self-install. Chips and DSP stuff are much more expensive than you realize or remember, particularly for manufacturers that can’t get batch discounts at the level of someone like AMD or Intel.

So music gear industry is actually one of most “green” from all industries … things are heavily re-used and their lifespam is literally decades.\n\nNow what Polyend did is, that existing old Play users will sell their Play for significantly less than before. And upgrade, when you add shipping costs is also pretty costly (nor arguing that price may be adequate for swapping entire board - that is no doubt)\n\nSo i thing this is actually not ideal move for existing Play users, and it shows that many of them (especially those whi bought Play recently) are pretty disapspointed. Maybe more user-frirendly move would be to set Play plus price slightly higher and setdoscond of oldplay sliglty lower to make more interesting for existing users to ugrade but not push price of their OG devices on secondary market too low. But yeah, who i am, it's Polyend decision. Just wanted to point different point of view.\n\nLike, i understand your point of view, no bad mood here.\n\ndisclaimer: I do not own play, but i am considering to buy play plus cause lack of synth engines  was only reason why i didn’t buy original one - i like the concept a lot, it's just i am primary synth guy.  Also hope they add those synth engines to Tracker Mini, that would be game changer for me.\n\nOh also it’s a pity you decided to quit from reviewimg gear, love all your stuff, you are one one of best. Yeah, there is still lot of others, but mat - your review content will be missed hard.","like_count":7,"author_id":"UCrfLfWhcJWO0PKaj7OBPoiA","author":"@dendymakesmusic","author_thumbnail":"https://yt3.ggpht.com/MTcAEl0Za3LzTtgniR_Szxj02qQKd2bgO6H2JIqE9OpVerM88ra70lSYqnVkJvIdDN4GksfQ2go=s88-c-k-c0x00ffffff-no-rj","author_is_uploader":false,"author_is_verified":false,"author_url":"https://www.youtube.com/@dendymakesmusic","is_favorited":false,"_time_text":"2 years ago (edited)","timestamp":1727827200,"is_pinned":false},{"id":"Ugy2t8mw73fWsofyInV4AaABAg.9xMwcwYmvjg9xNOS0DCRep","parent":"Ugy2t8mw73fWsofyInV4AaABAg","text":"Im sorry but i also cant sell a PS4 and buy a PS5 without spending new money .... economy just doesnt work that way......

I want the same thing for Deluge users on the old screen, btw)\n\nPolyend do have a bit of a history on abandoning firmware updates on hardware too soon.. the old amazing looking Polyend Seq really needed some firmware evolution but at some point they just stopped. It would have been a good gesture to open source that firmware, if they're never going to update it again. So I really hope any new features that work on both revisions of the motherboard, do indeed get implemented on both units..\n\nStill, props to them for having a hardware upgrade path. Even if I'd rather swap in the new board myself.. I don't have an original Play so it doesn't really affect me right now anyhow\n\nI do have an original Tracker though, and am still curious about everything the link-up mode between the two can do.

If they’re instead abandoning the original altogether then that would be a pretty shitty move, but I haven’t seen anything to suggest this is the case. It sounds like at least some of the new features require new hardware, so a firmware update wouldn’t be enough in and of itself. Maybe I’m giving Polyend too much benefit of the doubt. I am optimistic, and I want to support music hardware manufacturers that have not sold out to private equity firms and shipped all of their production overseas.\n\nYour head would explode if you knew how electronics test equipment is made/sold these days. It’s effectively the standard approach now to design an exceptionally powerful and capable oscilloscope, then turn off 75% of its features in software to artificially limit the capability of lower priced models, even though the hardware is identical to that of the models that cost 2-5x as much. As hardware gets cheaper and processing performance plateaus, this will become increasingly more common, since the underlying costs involved with manufacturing hardware variants outpaces the costs of simply running a single hardware unit with tiered features that can be turned on/off with a software switch. \n\nThe only good news in all of this is that manufacturers frequently underestimate the ability of consumers to “hack” their devices and enable paid features themselves post-purchase, which in my prior oscilloscope example is precisely what happened with Rigol’s MSO5000 series—you can currently pay $900 and get a $5k oscilloscope, albeit without a valid warranty. \n\nAside from all that, audio hardware/software development has never been so accessible, and I think it’s an especially exciting time to be a musician and/or an engineer.","like_count":2,"author_id":"UC-RzIGaefbdBreCIHRD96KQ","author":"@silverXnoise","author_thumbnail":"https://yt3.ggpht.com/Nd5T55oLrKNWc1gwUBFnuyae3EkGjvqIQzcUEV7vI0Pct0UvvfEqQGPxBAWadH5lbjNw1KNh=s88-c-k-c0x00ffffff-no-rj","author_is_uploader":false,"author_is_verified":false,"author_url":"https://www.youtube.com/@silverXnoise","is_favorited":false,"_time_text":"2 years ago","timestamp":1727827200,"is_pinned":false},{"id":"UgyY7YqYiOoIkFcM_f14AaABAg.9xL_y1OsFDz9xOO67on_Ih","parent":"UgyY7YqYiOoIkFcM_f14AaABAg","text":"If you don't feel that you were getting good value for your money you should have returned the product.

I clearly thought this was a clever way to upgrade a product compared to how the majority of things are done (with our phones, cars, laptops, etc). You are ALWAYS welcome to disagree with me, and under no circumstances am I asking or expecting you to buy anything. But if your comment is insulting to me or to Polyend or ANYONE, it's getting deleted. I want this channel to be a place to be inspired. Take that negativity elsewhere.\n\n4. Just to make this clear: stereo samples/onboard synths/etc couldn't work without a hardware upgrade.","like_count":22,"author_id":"UCshObcm-nLhbu8MY50EZ5Ng","author":"@BennJordan","author_thumbnail":"https://yt3.ggpht.com/n4yN6OoQTOtdKr9MtPVRhT38hPTP0NUkc10Ni6wZWljek_9XRq0EuBi7PbmJb2bRs_WxcgQe=s88-c-k-c0x00ffffff-no-rj","author_is_uploader":true,"author_is_verified":true,"author_url":"https://www.youtube.com/@BennJordan","is_favorited":false,"_time_text":"2 years ago (edited)","timestamp":1727827200,"is_pinned":false},{"id":"Ugx5cO3QjDy-ooSLqmd4AaABAg.9xLyMtLsB0E9xM2p5dl7db","parent":"Ugx5cO3QjDy-ooSLqmd4AaABAg","text":"I think the problem is the price of the plus.

I just think that the new update is not all that great. Some people will want it and some will not. To me it isn’t worth 400 more dollars. FWIW, I work in hardware engineering in mass market consumer electronics. There are regulations around repairability and whatnot coming down the pipe from the EU that will probably hit the USA eventually, too.  The big players are all preparing for it. Sustainability and carbon footprint up and down the supply chain for manufacturing and delivering a device to customers is also a big deal now, as are regulations around “forever chemicals” that are present in just about everything that has plastic in it.  It is not clear to me whether Polyend has gone in the upgrade direction simply because they are getting a jump on new regulations, whether it is a sound business decision that will net them some extra money in refurbed OG models, or whether they just want to feel good about their upgraded product launching so soon.

If you think Polyend is \"forcing\" you to buy this, then you have much bigger problems than the features in a groovebox.","like_count":9,"author_id":"UC6j5IgYlMqeNN-_TIIPpqaQ","author":"@harveytherobot","author_thumbnail":"https://yt3.ggpht.com/ytc/AIdro_m2Ra5LZAFdnGHxrajXXtiMO3mWPn_-Ezmj3l8uCUOT7ec=s88-c-k-c0x00ffffff-no-rj","author_is_uploader":false,"author_is_verified":false,"author_url":"https://www.youtube.com/@harveytherobot","is_favorited":false,"_time_text":"2 years ago (edited)","timestamp":1727827200,"is_pinned":false},{"id":"UgwX2HCPKJZToPecSHR4AaABAg.9xM4g-OrI2-9xMIltwnlTH","parent":"UgwX2HCPKJZToPecSHR4AaABAg","text":"Hmm, I don't own  Play (fortunately) , but I'm 100% sure you don't either (hopefully) . \nif you recently bought a Play and realize with the price drop it doesn't worth selling it , but also the price for upgrading  is $399, could you honestly tell me that you would still be excited ????\nI totally agree with the rule \"never buy a product waiting for extra features by firmware updates\" , but this is totally  different","like_count":6,"author_id":"UCVPXchRZjtSQiEDjN7F8bZw","author":"@pdmidipd_patch7476","author_thumbnail":"https://yt3.ggpht.com/ytc/AIdro_lMBnu8fxnJtS9Yb4f_w-_231fDlAGrEgGNjMY-b9E=s88-c-k-c0x00ffffff-no-rj","author_is_uploader":false,"author_is_verified":false,"author_url":"https://www.youtube.com/@pdmidipd_patch7476","is_favorited":false,"_time_text":"2 years ago","timestamp":1727827200,"is_pinned":false},{"id":"UgwX2HCPKJZToPecSHR4AaABAg.9xM4g-OrI2-9xO7kly7AVx","parent":"UgwX2HCPKJZToPecSHR4AaABAg","text":"The original Polyend Play was released on May 12, 2022​. We are several months shy of 2 years. And there are a myriad of reasons to feel upset about this that have nothing to do with the idea that the original Play wasn't a complete device. Criticise the way people express themselves all you want, but just because you can't, or simply choose not to, feel empathy for people who feel upset about this doesn't mean they don't have a justifiable reason or a right to feel upset about it. \n\nAnd clearly this is not something companies do all the time because if it were people would experience it all the time and there wouldn't be so much of a backlash about it. \n\nI just bought mine a few months ago and I definitely didn't buy it for features I thought it might acquire. But I certainly realized within a few weeks that I wished it could do audio over USB and other things. Well guess what. Within a few months of my purchase of a product released barely a year ago they release a new version out of the blue that has that capability and at best will take my current unit and charge me more than half the cost of it again to get the new one. \n\nMaybe you can understand why I would feel upset about  that.
