    At 24.99 Euros I'll take two! Behringer can't possibly compete.

    Has Arturia ever made software versions of their own gear?

    The keyboard (XYZ pad + ribbon) is cool, I would like to see it as a separate midi controller.
    The synth engine itself... not interesting to my ears and too expensive for covid times (imo)...

    I agree. Love the capabilities and trappings but the core sound doesn't appeal to me, kind of organ-like.
    I'll stick with my 8 voice KingKorg.
     
  13. I have a Matrixbrute and I will admit if I create a great sound it's more due to luck than skill. It is not an easy synth that rewards you instantly. Would I want a polyphonic version? Not a chance.

    I cannot find one on their site, they have made their own soft-synths that are not modeled on someone else's product. I do believe that the only ROMPLER they have is a Mellotron. Just couldn't model it I guess.
     
  15. Hey! I've got one too. And like this guy I don't find it an easy synth to use.
