MatrixBrute Audio & Modulation Flowchart

[endreola]

Greetings,

The attached diagram reflects the current audio path and modulation flow path as it functions today with v1.1.0.73.  It may provide value to those who're interested in knowing more on how the flow paths are routed within the MB.

This content originally piggybacked onto another topic https://forum.arturia.com/index.php?topic=93412.0 and per suggestion had started it here instead to avoid branching too far off topic and making it easier to find.

Kudos to @DrJustice & @Edouard for their suggestions and guidance.

Nice work Endreola!  Very helpful to get a better understanding about the MxB. Having done these kinds of diagrams before for other gear, I know how time-consuming it can be to get the details right. Thanks for taking the time here!

Thanks gregae2001.  The MB can be a bit daunting when you first sit down with it.  Having some technical reference helps alleviate the challenge but can also spoil the surprise for those who enjoy learning on their own.

Nice work. Would look good a geeky t-shirt too.

Thanks tontheroad.  And I like the t-shirt suggestion.

I don’t see the insert on the chart.

Yea, it's missing a few things.  As for the Insert, docs mention - it goes before the Master Out in the signal path. It requires an insert cable, wired: Tip = Send, Ring = Return, Sleeve = Ground

That's an error in the manual. The insert sits between the final VCA and the internal effects. This is the "right" place, since you can then tap a clean signal, process it and return it to use the internal FX, or you could even use the return path to process something other than the MxB voice with the internal effects while using the send as an unprocessed mono out.

Thanks, Doc!
