Any word on if\when? Last I saw was October...
-
and october is still there isn't it ;)
-
Ah, are you planning a Halloween surprise? I hope so!
Very excited to open up new possiblities for the Minibrute, which is already an outstanding synth. Thank you for making sure it had some DIY capabilities :D
-
Any updates on this ? There seem to be way too many test points on the PCB to be useful... my imagination tells me these are intentionally inserted mod points :)
-
Stay tuned it's being built... I am working at it.
-
hi, snything new regrading minib mods ?
-
??? ::) Still waiting at the end of January. I am being very patient! do you need help YuSynth?
-
I'm excited too, but please everyone be patient. When's the last time you've been able to chat directly with the designer of a product on a forum? Yves is so awesome to be doing this, and I imagine much of it's probably in his free time.
Yves has shared his knowledge on his personal website for free for years. It's obviously a labor of love and an incredible resource.
Arturia had the foresite to hire Yves to design 2 amazing analog synthesizers at an unheard of price range and frankly they have changed the market. Because of unexpected popularity and issues moving from primarily software to hardware manufacturing, it took me a year longer than I had hoped to get my hands on a Minibrute. But it eventually came and it was just as I hoped. I preordered a beatstep yesterday the moment I heard it existed, and I don't care if it also takes a year to get here.
Arturia has proven that you may have to wait, but man do they ever deliver.

leafcutter over on the muffwiggler forum has been probing around and modding his Minibrute.
Check it out here (http://www.muffwiggler.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=1437306#1437306)

OK it is being built. I just wait to finish completing a first modification to make it public.
-
Yay! I am not criticizing but only offering to help. Maybe he needs help. i dunno. Trying to get involved. I have been following his website for years already.

Will there also be mods for the Microbrute on this site?
-
I might be wrong because the Google translate feature can be shoddy, but I thought I saw Yusynth mention on the Anafrog forum that he would wait until the Microbrute was at least a year old to release mods, so as not to entice users to void their warranty.

Wish this site was up

That makes sense :)

Thank you so much :)
I have to say, this is the one I'm most curious about:
Addition of an extension matrix of 3" jack sockets (inputs & outputs).
;)

:D

Hello,
with kind permission of Yves Usson I made some more readable pcb layout plans. I removed all the ground planes, so the traces are more readable, and I also layered the bottom and top plan with their silk screens, so they are readable like an Eagle pcb graphic or in a Roland service manual (this would have been impossible with the ground planes visible).
I also extracted the parts layout plan.

Best soft-mod ever ;) -> Converting your vanilla MiniBrute into a MiniBrute SE and vice versa (http://hackabrute.yusynth.net/MINIBRUTE/standard2SE_en.html)
Just remember to "reboot" the Minibrute after sending the SysEx sequences for it to work :)
