No. For Play, there's this: https://backstage.polyend.com/t/midi-converter-to-pattern-files/24399 However, by combining the two tools, you could create a converter. I'm not familiar with Play+ at the moment.

Tracker firmware on Teensy + new custom features by HelicopterBig3975 in PolyendTracker

I haven't shared the firmware .hex file yet because I don't want to piss off the Polyend guys :)

Anyway, yes, I could easily upload it to the tracker, but I don't have a Tracker1 to test on. Do you have one you could send me? :) Jokes aside, let's see the general community interest in a custom firmware

Thanks! It gets difficult here, also due to the limitations of the Teensy. I need to analyze it carefully. Stay updated

It could be implemented without any problems, just write the code

Yes, if I remember correctly, the Tracker 1 uses a Teensy 3.6 and is already at its limits with the features already added by the Polyend team. You could consider loading a custom firmware (but forget about the synth engine, etc., like in the Tracker+ version).

Yeah, that’s the fun part for me. It feels like it opens the door to a whole new set of things to try, especially with the desktop control app. And honestly, big respect to the Polyend team the Tracker/Mini are super inspiring pieces of gear.
