1. Прикључак за напајање: Connect the supplied power cable to the AC IN socket on the rear panel and then to a suitable power outlet.
2. Аудио излаз: Connect the main audio outputs (LEFT/MONO, RIGHT) to your mixer, audio interface, or amplifier using 1/4-inch TS cables.
3. МИДИ везе: Use standard 5-pin DIN MIDI cables to connect the MIDI IN, OUT, and THRU ports to other MIDI devices.
4. УСБ веза: Connect a USB Type B cable from the MatrixBrute's USB port to your computer for MIDI communication and firmware updates.
5. CV/Gate Connections: Utilize the various CV/Gate inputs and outputs for integration with modular synthesizers and other compatible equipment.
6. Слушалице: Connect headphones to the 1/4-inch stereo headphone jack for private monitoring.

2.3 Почетно укључивање

After all connections are made, power on your audio system first, then the MatrixBrute using the power switch on the rear panel. The display will illuminate, indicating the unit is ready for use.

3. Operating the MatrixBrute

3.1 Основне контроле

• тастатура: The 49-key velocity-sensitive keyboard with aftertouch is your primary interface for playing notes.
• Осцилатори: The MatrixBrute features three voltage-controlled oscillators (VCOs) with various waveforms (Saw, Square, Triangle) and sub-oscillators. Adjust the Ваве, Пулсе Видтх, и Туне controls to shape the initial sound.
• Филтери: Two filters (Steiner-Parker and Ladder) provide distinct tonal characteristics. Use the Одсећи, Резонанција, и Вози controls to sculpt the sound.
• коверте: Three ADSR (Attack, Decay, Sustain, Release) envelopes control the amplitude, filter cutoff, and other parameters over time.
• ЛФО: Three Low-Frequency Oscillators (LFOs) can modulate various parameters, adding movement and complexity to your sounds.

3.2 Using the Matrix

The central matrix is a versatile tool for sequencing, arpeggiation, and modulation routing.

• секвенцер: The 64-step sequencer allows for complex melodic and rhythmic patterns. Use the dedicated sequencer controls to record, edit, and playback sequences.
• Арпеђатор: Create dynamic arpeggios from held notes.
• Modulation Matrix: The matrix serves as a powerful modulation router, allowing you to assign sources (e.g., LFOs, envelopes) to destinations (e.g., filter cutoff, oscillator pitch) with adjustable intensity.

3.3 Onboard Effects

The MatrixBrute includes analog effects such as Delay, Chorus, and Flanger. Adjust the dedicated controls in the effects section to integrate them into your sound design.

3.4 CV/MIDI Integration

The MatrixBrute offers extensive connectivity for integrating with other gear:

• МИДИ: Control the MatrixBrute from an external MIDI controller or sequence it from a DAW via MIDI IN. Send MIDI data from the MatrixBrute via MIDI OUT/THRU.
• ЦВ/капија: Connect to modular synthesizers using the dedicated CV/Gate inputs and outputs for pitch, gate, and modulation control.

4. Одржавање

4.1 Чишћење

To maintain the appearance and functionality of your MatrixBrute, follow these guidelines:

• Обришите површину меком, сувом крпом.
• За тврдокорну прљавштину користите мало дamp крпу са благим сапуном, а затим одмах обришите на суво.
• Избегавајте абразивна средства за чишћење, раствараче или воскове, јер могу оштетити завршну обраду.
• Do not spray liquids directly onto the instrument.
