So what is the Blipblox myTRACKS, anyway? The Blipblox myTRACKS features a built-in microphone for sampling, two FX processors, five tracks, and 25 playpads that trigger over 50 real acoustic, electronic, and percussive instrument sounds. With myTRACKS, players explore the wide variety of built-in instruments and drum kits across five tracks, adding effects and modulating them using the two purple levers. Sample any sound with the built-in microphone, then build a song around your samples.

“Creating music with synthesizers and modern music tech has always felt like play to me,” says Troy Sheets, Co-founder of Playtime Engineering. “By merging the portability, durability, and safety of toys with high-quality and advanced functionality of a legitimate instrument, we’ve created a fun and accessible music-making machine that anyone can play.”

“Bootstrapping and crowdfunding our business has allowed us the freedom to design and produce our wildly creative line of instruments. We are tremendously grateful for our supporters who helped fund both the original Blipblox and Blipblox After Dark, and we look forward to introducing more friends to the Blipblox community with the launch of myTRACKS,” added Playtime Engineering Co-founder Kate Sheets.
