Analogue Brilliance

Possibly the most powerful analogue monophonic synth of all time, the Arturia MatrixBrute gives you the flexibility of a modular system but with a bank of presets to choose from.

With three Brute oscillators, a Steiner-Parker filter, a ladder filter, five analogue effects and a modulation matrix – the MatrixBrute offers an incredibly comprehensive toolset allowing you to sculpt an in-depth and unique sonic identity.

Bringing Back the Golden Years of Synths

Intuitive to use and with many programmable features, the MatrixBrute is great for use both on the stage and in the studio.

Tone Generation and Sonic Sculpting

Arturia’s MatrixBrute has two Brute Style oscillators which each have their sub oscillators and the same waveshapers that made the Minibrute such a stand out instrument amongst analogue synths.

Using the analogue UltraSaw, you can alter the single oscillator sound to perform like three detuned sawtooth oscillators, while the Metalizer on the triangle wave adds some serious edge to your sound.

Get the sub-oscillator involved with its waveform control and adding in some nice full-bodied, low-end tones.

There’s also a third oscillator that features sine, triangle, saw and square waveforms which you can use as both an audio source and a modulation source at once.

Arturia has also incorporated the most advanced Noise Generator ever found on a production synth. White, pink, red and blue noise colours are all available, allowing you to design the perfect sound you’re looking for, with the noise generator also being able to act as a modulator to add some extra flavour to the filters and oscillators.

Complex Audio Mods and Filters

Create unique and complex audio modulations with the easy to use AUDIO MOD section.

The oscillators can be routed to other oscillators to create thick, layered cross-modulation sounds and route oscillators and the noise generators to the filters for that extra growl and edge.

You’ll also find two awesome filters onboard that take the MatrixBrute to new levels.

A Steiner-Parker multimode filter, as found in the MiniBrute and MicroBrute, triumphantly returns with some extra power.

Using the DRIVE control, you can beef up the filter sound while the slope can be 12db per octave or 24db per octave for even fatter sounds.

Analogue Output Effects and Modulators

Five, high quality, true analogue effects have been built-in including stereo delay, mono delay, chorus, flanging and a unique multi-tap reverberator.

Being analogue effects mean you get to maintain your great, natural, analogue sound throughout the sound chain.

Three LFO modulation sources allow you to add more depth, dynamics and dimension to your sound.

LFOs 1 and 2 provide you with a wide range of waveforms to play around with and you can also sync them to the sequencer or MIDI clock while LFO 3 is part of VCO 3 and can track the keyboard to reflect your performance as you play up and down.

You’ll also be able to take advantage of the three envelops that are included, giving you time-based control over the filters, VCAs or any other parameters you choose to route them to by way of the Matrix.

Modulation Routing

The Matrix allows you to route any of 16 modulation sources to any of the 16 modulation destinations and 4 destinations are user-assignable so you can set up your own custom matches.

A whole lot more flexible and customisable than patch cords, with the data dial, you’re able to adjust the amount of modulation for each cross point on the Matrix and dial in the perfect, precise amount of modulation.

Sequencer

Switch to sequencer mode and the matrix will become a 64-step sequencer that supports Accent and Slide steps for extra variation and groove.

There’s also a function that allows you to put a different CV on each step that can be used as a modulation source.

Preset Recall

When performing live, quickly loading up your presets without fuss and trouble is a must; you don’t want to be scrolling through lists and navigating your way through menus when the time comes.

Using the Matrix you can instantly recall any of the 256 on-board preset memory locations with the touch of a button – perfect for flawless performance.

Great Control

While 49 note velocity keybed with aftertouch is your main gateway to performance with the MatrixBrute there’s a whole host of controls to grasp full control over your sound.

Pitch bend and mod wheels are available with 4 assignable macro knobs which are also routable to any of the modulation destinations by using the Matrix meaning you can use a single knob to control up to 16 different parameters.

Fully Analog Synth

When designing the MatrixBrute, Arturia went all out – raising the bar and then some.

With its incredible matrix along with analogue circuitry, high-quality filters and analog output effects – the Arturia MatrixBrute is the whole package.
