Arturia MatrixBrute, Manual

Introduction

Welcome to version 2.0 of the Arturia MatrixBrute!

MatrixBrute rocked the synthesizer world with its introduction in 2016. Never before had a portable

analog synthesizer offered so much power and performance in such an affordable package. And

now with the release of the version 2.0 firmware, Arturia adds a host of new features to the

already impressive feature set of the MatrixBrute.

We developed these features in response to the requests you made. But honestly, there's a lot of

overlap between your dreams for this instrument and the fantasies of our own synth-obsessed

engineers! We're all in this together.

Here's a brief summary of the new features:

• Compare/preview presets before saving an edited patch
• Four times as many custom mod routes per patch
• Enhanced editing of sequences

◦

Rotate sequence events

◦

Extend/duplicate a sequence

◦

Increased Mod knob functionality

◦

More tempo control options

• Custom LFO waveform drawing
• New LFO rate subdivisions (triplet and dotted)
• Edit MIDI Control Center settings from the front panel
• Independent glide per zone in Duo-Split mode

The purpose of this document is to introduce these new features and explain how to use them. For

a comprehensive description of all features, both old and new, please download the version 2.0

manual from the

Arturia website

.

And while you're there, check for firmware updates! We're always honing our craft, and there may

be additional features or fixes that you won't want to miss. Of course, if you download the MIDI

Control Center application from the website, it will let you know about firmware updates whenever

you use it.

We hope you'll be as excited about these new features as we are. They further reveal the

wondrous beast that lurks behind the front panel of the MatrixBrute. Let it loose!

Musically yours,

The Arturia team
