Very intelligently and precisely presented, learned more here than from 10 other so-called PB tutorials. Hope it‘s not outdated when it eventually reaches Europe.😅
This was a great overview and explanation. I'll have to sit down with the PolyBrute and experiment a bit to see how exactly you got all those cool sounds, but I see that as a good thing.
Really glad that they made sure the sync master oscillator was also the FM modulator this time. On the MatrixBRUTE it's the sync slave that modulates the master when using both features at once, which has always bothered me a bit.
Great tutorial. Would be fantastic if you yould also profide the demo patches you are using. Without seeing the adjustments, it is a bit difficult to reproduce what you are showing. THANKS
Same me, watching all these vids and eagerly awaiting my Poly as well. At least we can study the manual over Xmas and ny ;-) and play with the V Collection.
Don't feel bad, there's light at the end of the tunnel! :-) Mine is not due in until March. I'm just happy that I got my name on the pre-order list. In the meantime I'll just keep dreaming about this beautiful synth. :-)
I need this synth 😍 Looks like the most versatile analog polysynth on the market today. I love that those waveshaping capabilities get us more than our standard 4 analog waveforms sine, saw, triangle and square/pwm and that morph feature is really impressive to say the least, considering that this is an analog synth. And all those tactile expression controllers, you have your mod and pitch wheel but you also get that sweet 3-axis morphée and ribbon controller. This is one awesome synth! I'd love to see a digital oscillator in there too though, one with wavetables or maybe even sampling capability... and 16 note polyphony! Then it would be the ultimate package! But then it would also completely break the bank 😔 ...would still be cheaper than the Moog One though 😂
Yep! Believe you hold the tambrality button and tap the polyphony button above it. Set the lower octave to mono, leave the top as poly. He outlines this toward the end of this very video.
Thank you for showing us some basic sounds this synth can make. Judging this synth from initial TH-cam videos made me think it's only capable of making weird, often unpleasant sounds 😆
I want to recreate the vintage knob like on the prophet 5. can I access the pitch of the osc and envelope times PER Voice? Each voice has different settings like six different synths... (like the vermona perfourmer). i saw a voice row on the matrix. But there is no info about that.
That’s exactly what the Voices mod source does, and it’s even better than a vintage knob, because Voices can be routed to whatever you want - pitch, panning, cutoff, etc. There is also a Pitch Accuracy setting in the menu that can create subtle detuning per note.
No problem! Though I just reread your question and I should clarify. The Voices mod source applies a preset amount of modulation per voice, so for example -1, -0.6, -0.2, +0.2, +0.6, +1. So it’s like applying dispersion to a parameter - but you can’t actually choose a specific value per voice - it’s not quite like having six separate synths. Still very useful for getting a detuned vintage sound!
Hello! @ 7:30, I do a morph, but it's not changing the filter lights - am I perhaps missing something? I have all the knobs set like yours - is there something in the matrix that allows this?
@@ArturiaOfficial yes, but at 1:07 on your Morphing tutorial, they don't change either. So once again, I ask is there something you do in particular that made this happen in this video? I was trying from a raw patch, but I don't think you were. Thanks!
After digging through several patches, I finally found one that does this specifically, which is 1.D.7, so your tutorial isn't actually showing how you got there. I'm sorry, but this shouldn't be a tech support issue ;)
Just checked Arturia site. It was said before - end of November. Now it is End of January! Oh man, really? May be it's only new orders will be shipped next year?
If the Key Step Pro is any example of things to come with the PolyBrute; undocumented features will take time to resolve. Most Arturia pre-order new customers (aka: early adopters or beta testers) know what to expect. Just be patient waiting for delivery as well as any immediate future patch updates.
@@winddealer1 I see you posting negative comments on every Polybrute video... Just out of curiosity: are you working for Novation or something ? This is a bit strange...
@@partirparlesarmoires Sorry to be the Debbie Downer. No I am not a shill for Novation or any other vendor. My investment and enjoyment in Arturia is a positive one overall. I do appreciate that Arturia has one of the best Support Forums platforms for customers to post their experiences, Feature Requests, bugs, and updates to the Arturia community. My recent experience with the KSP was as wake up call reminding me that purchasing any newly released products comes with Risk (for any product). That goes for Novation, Moog, Waldorf, Korg, Yamaha et. al. Lesson learned: "Wait"; six months to a year for the early adopters to work out the major bugs. If Risk averse then do pre-order. Gratefully.
Excuse my ignorance, but here we are on tutorials of this really cool synth I purchased and there seems to be lots of things that are being covered here that aren't really explained fully - if that be the case, I feel the word "Tutorial" may be misleading and should perhaps be replaces with "Features"? For instance - I had a valid question the other day and you responded with "go to tech support", yet there's nothing wrong with my PolyBrute(perhaps just me? LOL). later on you are going over LFO's and you cannot simply turn these and get a response like you are getting - I started digging in more and realized that there needs to be something done within the Matrix to actually have these LFO's to work. I'm suggesting that you may want to put some text on the video in these parts to explain to the person watching that needs to be done. If your intent is to sell these machines only, then your job is done - if you want people to truly understand the things that are being covered here, it would be nice to show them these little things that you are not telling them - thanks so much! I've been a music instructor for the past 25+ years and try to be thorough as possible for the students and I don't think this is asking too much.
Hi and thank you for your feedback, we truly appreciate it. I'm sorry if you didn't find the information you were looking for in our video, I'll share your thoughts with the team in charge of it. This is a really deep product so we've been hesitating a lot, should we cover everything in-depth or have shorter videos and let our users discover the details in the user manual? That was a tough question but your comment will help us in the future :) Cheers!
@@ArturiaOfficial Thanks - Matt has a great enthusiastic style and obviously he is a true pro with this amazing synth. I have been slowly figuring things out here based on what he's showing - there's lots of things that ARE correct, but once in a while in MOST tutorials I have found here on TH-cam there's lots of little things that are not explained, which in turn is making me dig into the manual more. I am relatively new at synthesis (maybe a year in at best) and it's all a bit overwhelming for this old dog LOL. I'm sloooowly getting it! Thanks.

I just got my Polybrute yesterday. It's amazing! Thanks for these tutorial videos, keep them up to keep the heat of the Polybrute going.
Thank you for an extremely qualified review.

I can’t WAIT for this thing to get to Canada!
Don’t wait! I’ll send it. 😁
Great video! Nicely waffle-free, with accurate terminology, etc.
Amazing and very well explained vídeos from 1 to 7
Thank you. Glad you like them!
Superb, your teaching style is spot on, new sub for sure pal. Thanks
Amazing video and tutorial. I can’t wait until mine finally arrives! Thank you and keep these coming!
This aged well.
🤘
Well done explanation, thank you!

Already ordered already! That boat ain't fast enough.
Plenty time to warch these great videos as I've just learned my preordered Poly is not being shipped till the end of January! :(

He’s also toned it down quite a bit. No f bombs whatsoever.

That would be awesome, but it would probably break your back as well as your bank.
Mine arrives tomorrow!! I havent been interested in any synth since access virus
What speakers is he using. Somebody please respond. I’m on the search for some good speakers for ma Polybrute

Great tutorial
Question: In split mode, can I have a monophone (bass-)sound and 5 voices left for chords?
Yep! Believe you hold the tambrality button and tap the polyphony button above it. Set the lower octave to mono, leave the top as poly. He outlines this toward the end of this very video.

Curious what waveform viewer you are using? Thanks
Is that correct; there is no sine waveform option from VCO1? Excellent video BTW. Nice and clear and good pace.
That is correct. Sub on VCO2 is sine.
Nice monitors

It would be cool if they could add a Lag processor for the LFOs with a firmware update.
