The Arturia MatrixBrute synthesizer's epic modulation matrix explained

In this latest introductory video to the MatrixBrute from Arturia, synth legend Nori Ubukata takes us on a tour of the synth's insane modulation matrix.

When we first met the MatrixBrute, way back at NAMM in January, we were amazed at the synth's flexibility and routing options (despite the fact that half of it wasn't working at the time).

The 16 x 16 matrix may seem to be hugely complicated at first glance, but as we can see in the video, it does look like Arturia has done a sterling job of making using it a quick and painless affair.

Originally slated for release at the end of May this year, Arturia's new flagship synthesiser should be hitting the streets by the end of the summer, so we hope to have a review very soon.

For more information on the MatrixBrute, head on over to the Arturia website. More videos can be found on the Arturia YouTube channel.

I take care of the reviews on MusicRadar and Future Music magazine, though can sometimes be spotted in front of a camera talking little sense in the presence of real musicians. For the past 30 years, I have been unable to decide on which instrument to master, so haven't bothered. Currently, a lover of all things high-gain in the guitar stakes and never one to resist churning out sub-standard funky breaks, the likes of which you'll never hear.
