M8 made me love making music again <8

### 5/5 — M8 Tracker 🖤

*2025-09-14*

As if the M8 Tracker could not get any better… This extended display for the M8 Tracker is perfect for producing & also conveniently making recordings of demos, jams & full songs.

### 5/5 — Best companion for your M8

*2025-09-07*

This tool is a great solution for folks with bad vision and need a bigger display, or for capturing display information for tutorials or social media.

My hopes for the future versions. 
-Support streaming audio to the iPhone so you can can use Bluetooth headphones.
-screen recording with audio.
-Firmware updating.

### 5/5 — Brilliant

*2025-09-06*

So simple and useful! Connected my old m8 (with micro usb to my iPad Pro using a micro adapter on a usb-c cable) and it worked flawlessly.  I’m surprised how fast the screen updates there’s no delay… and biggest surprise is it charges my m8 while connected.
