Arturia MatrixBrute

A MatrixBrute version is also available with a Flightcase included.

When was the last time you met an instrument that truly inspired pleasure and creativity? MatrixBrute is arguably the most powerful analog monophonic synthesizer ever! As flexible as a modular system but offering presets, MatrixBrute is a dream machine for everyone interested in creating a sound palette of their own.

MatrixBrute is an outstanding analog synthesizer. Offering three Brute oscillators, a Steiner-Parker filter and a ladder filter, five analog effects, and the incredible modulation matrix. It is a massive sonic beast!

Power beyond the matrix

The heart of the MatrixBrute is its unique modulation matrix that allows you to create your own routings. You can invent a sound palette of your own that will be sure to be heard in any mix! The matrix can also be used to recall your presets. So go on stage, and select any of the 256 presets instantly! No menus or awkward selection screensscreens, everything is at your fingertips.

As if it was not enough, the matrix is also made to program and play sequences. This is no ordinary step-sequencer. With its ability to also be used as a modulation source, sounds evolve in melody and texture, just the way you want.

Sound beyond the power

Offering a audiosignal path that is is 100% analogue, MatrixBrute also features true analogue effects. The MatrixBrute gives you the sonic quality and power of a vast modular synthesizer but with the flexibility of presets along with a great arpeggiator and an advanced sequencer.

MatrixBrute is a truly empowering instrument! It offers tons of connections so you can work in any set-up. It brings a quality keybed and a solid chassis. No endless menus or screens to navigate or multi-function buttons to remember. Forget about connectivity issues. This is you in control. This is you inventing sounds. This is analog avant- garde.

Отзыв о MatrixBrute

"Very unique, extremely addictive. The MatrixBrute yields results that I can't get on other hardware with this kind of intuitive, clean functionality. I think it's a modern classic",-
Justin Meldal-Johnsen (Nine Inch Nails, Paramore, Beck)

All necessary controls

Let's look at the elements and controls on the front and back panels.

Arturia MatrixBrute

1. Three Analog Oscillators Sawtooth, Pulse, Triangle, waves with the unique waveshapers that have become the trademark of the 'Brute' sound. There is also a sub-oscillator on each of the two Brute oscillators
2. Combination VCO/LFO oscillator The third Osciallator can be used for both audio signals and LFO modulation at the same time. You do not have to choose either operation here so you can always have that big 3 oscillator sound
3. Noise Generator Noise generator with White, Pink, Red and Blue noise types. The most versatile on the market
4. Audio Mod The Audio Mod section allows for complex oscillator and filter FM possibilities bringing whole new tonalities to your sound
5. Performance Controls Pitch bend and mod wheels and 4 Macro encoders which can be assigned to any of the modulation destinations for instant hands on performance playing
6. Voice Modes Multiple keyboard modes for mono, paraphonic and duo-split modes. Split oscialltors for paraphonic mode or use the duo split mode to play a sequence while playing notes over the top of it
7. Three LFO’s Two standalone LFO’s with 7 waveforms and trigger modes allow for complex modulations. The combination VCO/LFO adds a 3rd LFO in the system
8. Mixer Mix and blend Oscillators 1, 2, 3, as well as the noise generator and External input sources. Route each mixer input to the filter of your choice using the Filter assign buttons
9. Steiner-Parker filter We have upgraded our Steiner Parker filter to support both 12db per octave and 24db per octave slopes as well as a DRIVE control for making thicker sounds. The 4 modes, Low pass, band pass, high pass, and notch allow for a vast array of sound making possibilites
10. Ladder Filter We have included a traditional beefy Ladder filter with both 12db and 24db per octave slopes as well as Low Pass, High Pass & Band Pass modes and a Drive control. This filter design is known for making punchy bass and thick lead sounds
11. Filter routing The two filters can be patched in series or in parallel configurations
12. 3 Envelope Generators The two ADSR envelopes and the 3rd DADSR envelope give you plenty of sound sculpting tools
13. 256 Memory locations Store and recall your favorite sounds at the touch of a button. You can organize, save and load new banks of sounds using the free MIDI Control Center editor application. We deliver MatrixBrute with 128 factory presets
14. The Matrix The matrix is the heart of Matrixbrute. It allows for complex modulation routing, step-sequencing and instant preset recall.
Modulation Routing: You can assign any of 16 modulation sources to any of 16 mod destinations. 4 destinations are user programmable and can be seen in the e-ink display. Set amounts of each modulation routing using the data encoder.
Step Sequencer: The matrix can be used as a 64 step sequencer with separate Step, Accent, Slide and Modulation steps.
Preset Recall: In Preset mode the matrix allows you to recall any of 256 presets at the touch of a button. 
15. True Analog Effects To enhance your sonic pleasure we have added an analog and Delay/Chorus/Flanger to the output. Choose from any of 5 operation modes. And YES! the controls in the analog effects can be set as modulation destinations in the Matrix
16. Sequencer/Arpeggiator controls The sequencer and arpeggiator add to the playability of the Matrixbrute. Multiple modes of both the seq and arp allow for unlimited musical ideas to be realized
17. Keyboard The 49 note keyboard features both velocity and aftertouch for a musical feel with plenty of expression

18. Master Audio Outputs Stereo ¼” jacks for your master audio outputs
19. Control Voltage Interfacing 12 CV Inputs and 12 CV Outputs allow the Matrixbrute to interface with your standard 1V per octave modular synth gear
20. Audio Input Line and instrument levels allow for adding an external oscillator from your favorite modular synth or processing a guitar or bass through the filters, VCA and analog effects
21. Gate I/O The Gate inputs and outputs allow you to trigger external gear or trigger the internal envelopes remotely
22. Sync in and out This allows you to synchronize the MatrixBrute’s sequencer and arpeggiator with external devices
23. Pedal Inputs Experssion and Sustain pedal inputs give you real-time control to expand on your expressive capabilities control
24. MIDI Interfacing Standard MIDI in, out and thru will connect you to both modern and vintage gear alike
25. USB USB I/O allows you to interface to a computer DAW directly. This is also the link to use our free editor/librarian software provided for the MatrixBrute
