Tracker Mini in 2025

Hi,
I’m looking to buy a Tracker Mini soonish. I’ve been reading up on the Mini. There were some comments when the Mini came out about problems with buttons being sticky and the case being creaky. Were these just first generation gripes or a problem? Is the long term durability good on the Mini?

Thanks
Chas

I can only speak to my own experience. I bought a tracker mini in early January 2025 and I had to send it back to Polyend just over a month later as one of the minus (-) buttons started sticking slightly which was messing up my patterns. It’s still in Poland so hopefully it gets repaired otherwise I think they’ll send a new one. I might have just got super unlucky but I don’t know.
Still an amazing device so long as the buttons don’t misbehave!

I got my mini August '23…build quality is fine on mine. Apart from the various firmware bugs that have been a nuisance,it’s been a great creative device that I couldn’t do without.

I purchased one used last year and have no problems with it - it is certainly not the most perfect ergonomic experience, and I prefer the tactile feel of my Elektron boxes, but the Tracker Mini is a great unit in my opinion.

Hi, Thanks for your replies!

i purchased mine right when they first came out, use it nearly everyday, take it with me nearly everywhere and have had no physical issues with the hardware so far.
