Time to start lobbying Arturia for a desktop module version. Then it can sit on a rack above our matrixbrutes :)

About time! I love my MatrixBrute and can’t wait to hear what other talented musicians will make with this new synth.

This synth pretty much has me sold, well done Arturia!

This...put a smile on my face 😍❤ It's the holy grail of the Arturia line up 😍

I love the patches you used in your music at the end. Sweet little jam. It really shows off the synth and your sound design & arrangement skills.

The sounds are totally wicked. Lovely texture and movement. Dry and clean but articulate. I think they nailed the tone.

Omg the sound at 8:20. Bo, thank you for the video, such an inspiration everytime!

Love the t-shirt. I can relate

Great review, Bo. Really a lovely sounding board.

Sounds wonderful. Great demo!

This is hilariously out of my price range, but it was great hearing the stuff you made with it... Sounds absolutely lovely

GREAT REVIEW. Thank you! That trance preset at 8.51 is BANGING.

Damn it . I knew this coming . Just didn't know when . Fantatstic Bo. The guys at Arturia have smashed hard out of the park with this one.

I KNEW THEY'D DO IT. THEY FINALLY FRICKEN DID IT, BUT THE QUESTION IS, DO I WATCH BOBEATS OR LOOPOP FIRST?!

Very nice presentation Bo! This is quite a piece of synth! I love the possibilities. Take care

A great review.Such a gorgeous looking synth. Thanks

When a key is pressed a light above it is lit. Nice feature which I did not notice at first!

I decided to try this synth after your brilliant review. I played the first patch, went home and ordered one. 2 weeks and counting. Happy days.

It's interesting how everones opinions vary. I think the sound is quite warm and rich even if it has some metallic sounds too. I also think it has an "old" quality to it. By that I mean that it sounds like the very first and early synthesizers. But I am in no way an expert in this so forgive my untrained ears if i am wrong. Lovely sounds however.

God the morph function is so cool. I'm usually happy with cheaper synths but this the first time a synth I'll never afford has a feature I'd actually use

Super review , love your play Bobeats , thanks 👍🏻💖🙂

Every time I think Arturia can't make a crazier piece of gear, they prove me wrong. The Matrixbrute wasn't the final evolution of the Brute, it was simply a stepping stone to this masterpiece in synth tech.

I like that it looks very compartmentalized; easy for my eyes to take-in - - I HAVE problems with things that are not easily cordoned off by lines, yet this format seems very easy and a delight to take in and DIGEST WITH MY EYESIGHT - - THE SOUNDS ARE STRANGLEY VERY "SAMEY" IN THE SENSE THAT IT HAS FLAVOR OF A BUTTERSCOTCH 80's S♡UND!! 😇😇😇😇😇😇😇

The workflow on this seems supreme with that mod matrix, but the no demo showed a sound that blows me away yet.

Uhhhh.... this morph function..... fantastic.....

Such a beautiful instrument , thanks for sharing!

Thanks Bo I enjoy the videos been quite stressful here in the States always a nice escape from the Chaos.

Seen a ton of reviews and not been impressed by it until yours. That spacey bit was great and exploring that side would be interesting

Great demo! You got good skills for sound design as well :-) I also got a Matrixbrute, and your demo here is very convincing, for me to get this monster as well...oh dear...I fear my poor wallet's gonna leak cash in the near future...

Superb overview, thanks Bo!

What a lovely synth this is Bo :)

Sounds gorgeous!

This is the most excited I’ve been about a synth in a very long time. Looks and sounds amazing. Thanks for the video Bo! Do you know anyone looking to buy a kidney? 😅

Excellent demo!!! Thanks a lot!! :)

Thanks Bo! This thing BOOPS!!!!

Wow, I love it... Today I order one !!! It will complete my MatrixBrute !

Thank you .That is a really good workflow using both Polybrute and Machine + .

I was waiting for the Beat 😎✌🏿💯🎹 Nice

cant wait for the behringer verison

Clearly a modern classic with all the expressive options, love it, ill have to test it to see if I will like the sound. Now am hesitating between novation summit and polybrute

Really useful review thanks

This is a lurvly machine and the detail they put into the morphing and matrix features is to be applauded. 😻 but I’d go crazy with only 6 voice polyphony and the placement of the wheels doesn’t give you anywhere to rest your palm. I’d be bumping into that little soap dish all the time 🤓

Love the T-shirt, it explains everything)

oh wow.... will look and sound great next to my Matrixbrute......

I say Artuia needs a new flagship poly... Boom: My video didn’t age well 🤦🏾‍♂️

Omg....I love the music you created with your maschine and tbe synth.... thanx "Lord-if-waves" for sharing... yeah... that's my nickname for you... lol...

I need this!!

Thank you:)! Great review!

Okay, you poor musicians out there...like me... I watched this video in awe (thanks Bo) and immediately begin calculating in my brain the possibilities while my other side of brain listens to sound treats (nice patch creation Bo). But this is a flagship, flagships are meant to be on stage and do the work of 3 or more synths. So after the reviews and study of this synth I think of how to re-create the sonic possibilities of the PolyBrute in my little studio using the gear I have, or adding a synth for around $500.00 to complete the job. Combinations of synths if chosen wisely can bring us poor musicians close to the PolyBrute capabilites. For stage musicians though, this is BIG, another great synth from Arturia.

Has the potential to be a pad monster. Great vid Bo.

Home run Arturia , i was looking for more expressive control with a synth and etouch and osmose were options but now will get this........I like that it has its own sound and yet gets into some familiar territory , the organic plucking and clav esc stuff A+. 12:39

I love this. But why would you spend $2500 on 6 voices when you could get an 8 or 16 voice poly like a Rev2? Serious question.

Simply awesome all around and not even 1/3 the cost of a Moog One, though some might argue the Moog One is like having three synths under one keyboard. This however feels like a much more immediate, inspiring and fun Poly analog synth.

Lovely

This is one HELL of a synth. It's a shame they didn't go with at least 8 voices, but meh, it's still an amazing looking and sounding synth. Thanks Bo.

It would be grate if you compared the Mono mode of the Polybrute with the Matrixbrute. I am seriousoly wondering if this new beast can cover the Matrixbrute territory.

That first patch should be called something like "Jarre in a can" or "Instant Jarre"😂

Sounds very nice indeed, a bit pricey (this is subjective, I know), it gets into the DSI PRO 3 segment, but from all the youtube demos it sounds deeper in the low end, which is a big plus indeed.

It’s so pretty!!! ❤️❤️❤️

What a beast! :o

Hello! what a very nice preset (the first one) !!!!

Nice patch at the beginning Bo. Looks like I might be coming out of GAS retirement lol

I like to put a scfi film on the TV with the sound down and use the visuals for the inspiration.. All in one synths seem to be for making pop music and modular is where the interesting stuff is going on, but that is certainly a capable machine

just got mine amazing unit

Thanks for another great tutorial I always enjoy to watch them. I have a question and dilemma and because you have a Arturia matrixbrute probably you are the right person to ask 😉 The last months I was looking for a synth I was thinking for example about hydrasynth desktop because it has a nice interface and tons of features but wasn't 100 % sure if like the sound. With Artutia Matrixbrute and new Polybrute is a different story I absolutely love ❤️ both and here we are my dilemma. I know 6 voices lot of new features 5 octaves, better screen but also no cv no audio input and only one position panel that sad the flexibility of matrix brute 3 different types is great and very handy. Matrixbrute you can much cheaper now and with 2.0 firmware got a lot new options and can connect with eurorack. Maybe a good idea to buy matrixbrute first and 2-3 after as a second synth poly brute 😀 but how I explain it to my wife. Please tell what is your thing comparing both? Are you getting on polybrute or keep both? Regards

Sounds wonderful but why only six voice poly at £2,259? I mean it's doable but 8 or 12 would have been better.

damn i am in love

This or Behringer Deep Mind 12 + all their anolog synth modules?

The cat who's got the cream!!! Maschine + AND a Polybrute!!!! How fab! :)

I like this one

I'm not a huge fan of analogue poly synths as a rule but this one is really taking it to the next level.

i wonder if we will see the pattern with the minibrute to matrixbrute happen in reverse? I can definitely see arturia releasing a more budget minipolybrute or something to compete with the korg minilogue. it would definitely fit with their current line extremely well.

Ok guys...opinions please. This or the Jupiter X? Keeping in mind I have a Fantom on the way? Thank you!

The gas, it hurts...

Sorry for my ignorance but how is that ribbon thing controlled, what exactly does your finger control there?

just a hardware thought..I wonder why they didn't put the morph knob more in the center of the console? And make it a slightly larger size to distinguish it from the bank of same sized ones.

This is a great sounding synth. It grabs your attention like the Hydrasynth did for my ears. This sounds richer and fuller. What would you say about it Bo?

THIS THING JUST CAME OUT

I was looking at the novation summit then i saw this. If you had to pick out of the two which would you go for having tried both. I like that the keyboard can be split on the polybrute.

8:50 The old school Goa vibes are strong with this one :)

BoBeats How do you get your hands on these gears. Are you buying them or borrowing them for demos. I love your demos.

great video Bo as always its a little more than what I wanted to pay for it though

Feature-rich, exciting, gorgeous, and chockful of creative possibilities. At the same time... at around U$2,500 it costs nearly 20% more than an ASM Hydrasynth(49)+Deepmind 12 combo, and (when properly set up) the latter could be considered superior in some aspects. (Or not.) I have the MatrixBrute and I'd never trade it for this Poly, but it's still incredibly tempting...

They went and did it those beautiful bastards! It's beautiful.

CALLED IT

I have one, it's great!

I too love evolving complex textures and pads, unfortunately I've always found with only 6 voice poly you lose notes once adding sustain. Pitty Arturia didn't make it 12 voice or preferably 16 which alleviates that problem. Especially at it's $2,499 price tag.

12:38 - dig this sound

Yes! GAS is not an illness...

That mod matrix should be the default on any modern synth... like serious.. press button -> wiggle knob -> done. Roland take notes.. please..

An analog 2 way vector synth , cool

So what about us Matrixbrute owners? Will there be an update to add six voice polyphony?

Everything is great, but judging by the demonstrations, the sound is several times cheaper than the VST sound, I just did not notice any special charm in this hardware analogue, it sounds usually and does not stand out from the gray mass in its sound no matter what.

That poor table. Larry David would ask you "do you respect wood?"

I NEED IT

This review is exquisite. I see is not exact same instrument than matrixbrute. No angle panel and lost of CVs, but for only 400 usd more is an incredible analog polyphonic synth for the price. Thanks

It is brilliant, and it makes my apartment shake more than the matrix brute did.

It sounds lovely but not really for me at the price. Maybe if they put out a desktop version. Nice video as always Bo
