Early concerns, great fun

Hey @Whim_Therapy, welcome to Backstage! It‘s good to have you .

@Whim_Therapy

Seems like I have an issue with some samples when trying to import them. They get super-staurated or maybe bitcrushed when previewing and importing, but if I open them from my computer they are totally fine.

What sample- and bit-rate are they? If they are not 44100hz 16-bit, the tracker will convert them on load. Which might be what is causing issues here?

I‘d be curious to hear what format they are in and if you got a sample to upload, i‘d love to investigate that as well.

@Whim_Therapy

Also some times opening a folder crashes the device, but only on some specific folders. Those open also fine when connected to a PC.

Are there large number of samples in those folders? Or long filenames? Special characters in the filenames?

@Whim_Therapy

Another one is that the tracker isn’t recognized as an audio pilot by my PC (Windows 10, latest version) so I can’t use it to sample or to bounce tracks. Did I missed a driver to install or something else ?

There are no specific Windows drivers. It should just be a general audio device using Microsoft Drivers. You could try updating/removing those drivers when you have the Tracker connected - using the Device Manager.

And the last one is that when exporting from the tracker mini itself, I get a slight clock issue (exporting at 134 bpm, then importing in Ableton Live at 134bpm and I get a quarter note gap after 45 seconds of audio). At 1st I thought about a 44.1khz to 48khz issue, but that’s not it.

The exported tracks or stems are not exactly 44100hz, which is most likely what is causing the issue. Make sure in Ableton that it is not trying to stretch the audiofiles. That should resolve the issue. Not sure what that option is called in Ableton, but i know it‘s there somewhere
