Polyend is a Polish company on a mission to create innovative music hardware. Polyend has been breaking new ground since their first release, Perc—the first drumming machine for real drums—to the creation of the world’s first standalone hardware tracker. With advanced functionality, intuitive controls, and minimal design, Polyend’s devices inspire musicians to keep pushing the boundaries of their creativity. This is the Polyend Legacy.
Perc
The first instrument, named Perc, was and still is an absolute novelty in the music industry. A professional, expressive, velocity controllable instrument. Fast and precise. Playing on any surfaces that resonate. As said by its creators “The Perc is a wow maker. As the first robotic drumming machine ever, it brought us a lot of attention. The positive worldwide reception of this astonishing tool has opened a lot of doors for us. Only because we dared to meet our idea.” With a huge warm reaction to Perc the Polyend team now had their sights on the future. To forge a new path, to think ahead.
Seq and Poly
Another two instruments emerged shortly after. “With the Perc out there, we needed a decent sequencer to control it. That’s where the Seq came from.” The most hands-on and immediate sequencing experience available out there to date. Accompanied by Polyend’s first contribution to the Eurorack world, the Poly module. A digital MIDI to analog CV world breakout tool.
Both products are offering unique ways of controlling hardware and software music setups. These straightforward instruments with their ‘what you see is what you get’ interfaces breathe new life into your other gear.
Medusa
Powered by customers’ feedback and support. From modest bedroom producers to the scene’s most known figures. The team maintained its goals. The next move was the Medusa hybrid synthesizer. A result of close collaboration with the Dreadbox company. The best of digital and analog worlds merged into one unique instrument. Equipped with an expressive Grid controller and sequencer. It is already hailed by some as a future classic. It certainly rocked the scene. “Medusa project was an enormous challenge. Expanding on all levels of our activities and interests at the time. A huge achievement, big learning experience, and a great adventure.”
Anywhere, Preset, Poly 2
Together with the Medusa project refined as a Black Edition. Three more exclusive Eurorack modules were presented. The Anywhere, a convenient portable powering solution for small modular setups. The Preset, bringing the idea of saving and recalling presets into the modular world. As well as Poly 2, an ultimate configurable extension of its predecessor concept. “We enjoy the endless possibilities that Eurorack is offering to its users. The freedom it gives”. It’s a huge pleasure and honor for us to be able to contribute and incorporate our ideas to this reality”.
Tracker
A wealth of experience from past projects led to the creation of the Polyend Tracker a standalone music production center. Designed for both beginners and professionals, it combines a sturdy, minimalistic form of a sampler, synthesizer, step sequencer, and song arranger. Its growing Tracker Scene community three limited Artist Editions—by Bogdan Raczynski, Legowelt, and Pete Cannon—highlight its impact. Tracker’s intuitive design brings fresh creativity to any setup, inspiring users to shape musical culture.
Play
Since its debut at Superbooth 2022, the Polyend Play has been described as “possibly the most fun, flexible, and inspirational sample and MIDI-based groovebox ever,” highlighting its potential to revolutionize music production workflows. That statement couldn’t be more true.
