(although, for the CV outputs, the cv range is a bit wierd.... sometimes it is 0-10 volts, other times it is -5 to +5volts, or....? i cannot remember, sorry, i measured these many months ago.... but of course with the right attenuation everything can be adjusted to the range you want i guess...) > > 5. its effects are real analog BBD-based effects and sound warm and nice. > > 6. the sound shaping capabilities are outstanding and enough to keep you busy for more than one full lifetime. > > > things that i would like the matrixbrute to have: > > 1. in the modulation matrix, to have the VCO waveforms as modulation > sources (like the VCS3 has). > 2. a ring modulator. > > that's it. > > IMHO, it is a future classic and it is really worth its price! > > best regards, > Bakis. > > > > > Στις 15/10/2018 11:54 πμ, ο Florian Anwander έγραψε: >> Hi Antti >> >> everything that Scott wrote can be confirmed from my side (I don't own >> a Matrixbrute, but I watch and try it since the first prototype I >> could play). >> >> The build quality of all the Arturia hardware is extremely good - and >> in the rare cases that they have problems Arturia react very quick and >> accommodating (example: when the Minibrute keyboard lost its weights). >> >> About the Matrixbrute: I don't like how they achieved the modulation >> matrix .
