Mellow Snazzy FX Eurorack System Jam #TTNM


Published on Jan 15, 2018

"My Snazzy FX system is almost complete. I'm just missing that Ardcore Expander, which is on its way. So I took two of my upcoming Ardcore Sketches out for a test drive and built some sounds around them. Enjoy :)

The Immortal [NES] - Live on PO-28 and PO-32 Pocket Operators #jamuary2018


Published on Jan 15, 2018 tubesockor

"Live performance of an in-game song from the NES (Nintendo Education System 8-bit) game "The Immortal", using two Pocket Operators PO-28 & PO-32 from Teenage Engineering.

Quickly jammed in one take so figured it would match the #jamuary2018 flow of videos :)

The game music was originally composed by Douglas Fulton for the Apple IIGS, but a number of ports were made and C64-hero Rob Hubbard arranged some of them for NES (which my version is based on).

The PO-32 takes care of the bass line and some percussion (all sounds were created in Microtonic and then transferred to the PO). The PO-28 handles live playing and background melody."

MINIBRUTE 2 REVIEW – Everything You Need To Know!

Published on Jan 15, 2018 BoBeats


"Arturia are thrilled to announce the imminent release of a new synthesizer, one of three new products which will all be available at stores from late february 2018.

MiniBrute 2 is a 25-key analog monosynth with semi-modular architecture, bridging the gap between the traditional synthesizer instruments and the exciting world of modular. MiniBrute 2 shares many of the same iconic features that made its predecessor such a success, including mixable oscillators, the acidic Steiner-Parker filter, and the chaotic Brute Factor. While keeping many of its signature elements, the tone-shaping potential of MiniBrute 2 has been almost exponentially increased.

The reimagined MiniBrute now features semi-modular architecture, adding a comprehensive CV/Gate patch matrix that allows users to both rework its internal signal routing, but also expand into the blossoming world of modular. It also features the same high quality, aftertouch-enabled keybed found in their flagship MatrixBrute synth, making it a joy to play. Truly an instrument designed for musicians by musicians.

Arturia’s latest small-but-mighty monosynth is the successor to their debut analog instrument, the MiniBrute. The first incarnation was released in 2012, and turned the industry on its head, offering a unique, affordable analog synth experience with attitude.

MiniBrute 2 also features exciting new features that greatly expand its potential, both as the focal point of a creative studio, and as a road-ready performance platform. One of these features includes the new Arturia Link, an exciting innovation that will help unify and democratize your creative environment.

More information on the Link system and how it integrates with other devices will be released shortly. Stay tuned for more Arturia product announcements, and all of your questions shall be answered.

To get a good look at MiniBrute 2 in action, and to hear how it sounds, check out the official Arturia MiniBrute 2 announcement video, featuring London-based trip-hop act The Salvador Darlings.

To get hands on with all 3 of the new products, find Arturia at NAMM 2018. They’ll be at booth #11910."

CV Flexibility on the Arturia Matrixbrute - Notes from Bakis Siros of Parallel Worlds


The following is via Bakis Sirros of Parallel Worlds. I thought it gave a good idea of how powerful the modulation matrix on the Matrixbrute can be with it's multiple CV ins and outs.

"Just a few things i found out regarding the cv ins and outs of the Matrixbrute, (it may be useful for Matrixbrute owners) :

FYI, regarding the Matrixbrute: the 12 cv inputs on the back of the matrixbrute control the two filters cutoffs, the VCO1 and 2 pitch, VCO1 and 2 ultrasaw, VCO1 and 2 PW, and VCO1 and 2 metalizer, the LFO1 AMOUNT and VCA cv inputs. the 12 CV Outputs though, output the cv sources of the matrixbrute. in detail: if you assign the LFO1 to the VCO2 pitch, then the VCO2 pitch CV OUTPUT outputs the LFO1 voltage in the range of 0 - 10volts. if you assign the LFO1 to the VCO PW, then the VCO PW CV OUTPUT outputs the LFO1 voltage but in the range of +5 to -5volts. quite deep (and weird?) .... so the 12 CV OUTPUTS (in the back of the matrixbrute) output the ADSR1,2,3 cv outputs, the LFO1,2,3, cv outputs, the ENV follower cv output, the Modwheel cv output, the Seq cv output, Aftertouch cv output, Velocity cv output, Seq mod cv output, and the M1, M2, M3, M4 knob cv outputs. now the fantastic stuff: since this is a matrix of 256 buttons, you can assign all the 16 cv sources to control the VCO1 pitch, for example. so, you add 16 cv sources (without needing any cv mixer as you would normally need in the modular) and this result goes to the VCO1 Pitch destination and/or the VCO Pitch cv output on the back of the Matrixbrute... also, you can assign one cv source (for example ENV2) to modulate 16 different destinations in the matrixbrute (and 12 cv inputs in your modular) without needing a multiple at all! insane complexity and flexibility. and let's not forget that in each and every one patchmatrix connection, you have a bipolar attenuator, so you can also invert the 16 cv sources of the matrixbrute. so, in two words, the matrix of 256 buttons gives fantastic capabilities that sometimes you cannot (or its difficult to) achieve even in the modular environment also!

best regards,

Bakis."
