Play+: USB Sample/File management

Simple, efficient and usefull. Come on, Polyend! Que just want to focus on music making :slight_smile:

Just noticed that the SD card is seen as USB storage on the Synth if it is cabled to a PC and it is selected in the settings. I guess that it might be coming to the Play and Play+ in due course. (I checked on the Play+ and if it is there already it’s not accessed the same way as on the Synth - I haven’t checked further yet.)

It will be great. It’s a bit of pain try to manage the pattern page and can not erase patterns, put a different color on some of them, organize them in a easily way…

Also and more important, it’s really very dificult to manage samples in a project, in the sample pool etc. It takes a lot of time and destroys the flow and the workfkow.

I really adore my Play+ and I create a lot of music with it, but when I have some interesting songs, the problems began: the projects are too heavy and very dificult to handle, I can’t simplify them erasing unuseful patterns, the time to load projects is ethernal etc.

Some improves on the way of USB sample/file management Will be awesome!

Pretty sure there’s USB file management on the Tracker Plus.
Is there a reason its not available on the Play Plus?
Or is just an oversight on the part of Polyend?

Hopefully Polyend are working on this too

It would be sooo helpful to be able to see the sd drive when connected to a computer or iPad and quickly dragging and dropping samples into a new sample pack, it would definitely speed up my workflow in this way.

The tracker has a convenient USB switching feature, and that’s more than enough. But with the Polyend Play, you constantly have to move the memory card back and forth. I understand the team had new products and needed to earn money from simpler, more stable items like FX pedals, but I wish they’d actively return to development and improvements.
