I am trying to use the Audio in function of the Minibrute and I am wondering some specifics on it.
I took and out from another analog synth I have and it worked great using it as a 2nd oscillator. But what I wanted to do next is run a line out from my sound card using a digital VST to audio in on the mini brute. I ran the line out, to the input of the brute but nothing comes through :(. I took that same line out and plugged it into a guitar amp and it worked just fine.
So, I am wondering, is it necessary that the line out be amplified in order to be run through the line in of the brute? I cannot come up with any other reason it would not be working.
Thank you for any help.

yes the signal must be amplified; look the other post for "audio in" on the forum MB

I have had my Roland Fantom X going straight into my Minibrute with no signal problems. Saying that I use TRS cables all the time and I have to have the Fantom X at full volume.

are you sure you are driving a line level signal? it doesn't get hotter than line level, so you may be outputting a mic level signal or a -10dBv consumer-grade signal.
