Common Arturia MatrixBrute Questions
How do I sync the MatrixBrute's sequencer to an external MIDI clock source like my DAW?
In the Global settings (accessible by holding SHIFT and pressing the ARP/SEQ button), set 'Clock Source' to MIDI. Then, ensure your DAW is sending MIDI clock and the MatrixBrute's MIDI IN is connected.
What's the difference between a Preset and a Sequence on the MatrixBrute, and how do I save them?
Presets store the synth parameters, while Sequences store note and modulation data; to save either, press the 'Store' button, select the desired memory location using the encoders/Matrix, and press 'Store' again.
The MatrixBrute's sound seems weak. What are some things to check for a fuller sound?
Make sure the master volume isn't too low, check the levels of Oscillators 1, 2, and 3, and experiment with the Brute Factor and Sub Oscillator for added harmonic content.
My MatrixBrute's matrix LEDs are frozen or not responding correctly. How do I fix this?
Try power-cycling the unit first. If the issue persists, a factory reset (found in Global settings) may be necessary; back up your presets beforehand.
How does the Matrix act as a modulation source, and how do I assign destinations?
The Matrix allows you to route any of its 12 modulation sources to any of its 12 destinations; simply press the intersection of the source and destination to enable that modulation path and adjust its amount with the Data Encoder.
