Like no synth
before it
This is a new approach to synthesis.
PolyBrute goes against the grain to provide something entirely new - and not just a new sound, new feel, new design.
The raw energy of Brute oscillators, stacked six voices high, shaped by the versatility of dual enhanced classic filters. But with PolyBrute, a patch isn't just a single sound; it's an entire spectrum of sonic color that can be traversed at the touch of a single control. Attain the unattainable.
With such sonic depth comes the need for tactility. Playing PolyBrute is like suddenly being able to play several instruments at once; a multi-faceted tool of musical expression. From the classic ribbon strip to the state-of-the-art Morphée controller, each component is designed to respond to your every musical nuance.
Sounds complicated? Not a chance. PolyBrute's intuitive function-per-knob interface and the tactile elegance of the Matrix puts next-generation sound comfortably within reach.
Morphing
a new musical dimension
Infinite positions on an elusive spectrum of sound, instantly accessible.
Seamless transitioning of multiple parameters from one state to another, and everything in between. Morphing, combined with the Morphée and PolyBrute's uniquely eloquent inventory, paves the way for endless patch evolution and expressivity.
Going from a percussive patch with an emphasis on rhythm, to something smoother, with a pleasant arpeggio-like modulation.
The base is a filtered, wah-like tone, which turns into a plucked synth key sound using Metalizer, a Brute signature.
Morphing allows you to start from a moody plucked sound, to a soft lead, then back again.
You can quickly alternate between a pad-like envelope, and sharper, more percussive sounds, with a single twist of a knob.
Great synths
start with great sound shaping
PolyBrute’s seismic sound begins with two analog VCOs sharing much of the same sonic architecture that has made MatrixBrute and the rest of the Brute family famous.
Each oscillator generates sawtooth, triangle and square waves simultaneously, and you can mix between them to waveshape just the right initial timbre.
Waveforms
Saw VCO1 > Triangle VCO1 > Square VCO1 > Sub VCO2 > Metalizer VCO1

Then dial in VCO 1’s Metalizer wavefolding to escalate from pure to rude. Bring in VCO 2’s sub-oscillator to add an extra octave lower or really rattle some teeth.
VCO 1のピッチをVCO 2で変調させ、エッジの立ったFMサウンドに。あるいはソフト/ハードシンクを使用して倍音構成を刻々と変化させることもできます。

Two filters
are better than one
Tame the rawness of the Brute oscillators with not one, but two filters at your disposal - time-tested classics, fused with thrilling enhancements.
_1 VCF 1 Steiner
A 2-pole 12db/octave Steiner filter design with continuous sweepable slope types, as seen across the Brute range. The addition of the proprietary Brute Factor feedback control lets you add anything from subtle warmth to a raunchy growl.

Steiner filter plus Brute Factor
_2 VCF 1 Ladder
ボブ・モーグ博士が開発した伝説の4ポール(24dB/Oct)ラダーフィルターをベースにしています。伝統のローパスフィルターにゲイン補正と非対称ディストーションを加え、ポリフォニックサウンドをさらに迫力あるものに。
Ladder filter with and without resonance going up to self-oscillation.
Ladder filter plus distortion.

シリーズ
シリーズモードでは、2つのフィルターの強みを組み合わせ、モードの異なるフィルターを重ねることで1つのユニークなフィルターとして使用できます。

ミックス
2つのフィルター接続をシリーズ/パラレルに切り替えるだけでなく、両者をミックスすることもできます。

パラレル
パラレルモードでは、2つのフィルターに信号を別々に送ることで左右で音色変化が異なるステレオ音色を作ることができます。

モジュレーションソース
シンセサウンドに変化を付けるには、モジュレーションは欠かせません。
PolyBrute weaves a web of envelopes and LFOs that’s intricate and unpredictable in equal measure - the sound of motion itself.
3つのエンベロープジェネレーター
VCFとVCA用にはベロシティセンス対応のADSRタイプのエンベロープを搭載。マトリクスでのアサインは不要です。また、自由にアサインできるモジュレーション用のエンベロープにはディレイステージを追加したDADSRタイプで、マトリクスでパラメーターにアサイン可能です。様々なループモードで複雑な音色変化も自由自在です。
3つのLFO
PolyBruteの3系統のLFOはテンポ同期も可能で、美しく変化していくサウンドスケープから、可聴帯域に達する激しいモジュレーションまで、極めて幅広い周波数レンジを備えています。豊富な波形や波形シェイピング機能、スタート位相やリトリガー機能も内蔵し、多彩なモジュレーションが可能です。マトリクスでのモジュレーションの実験やテンポ同期を駆使してリズミックで高度なモジュレーションも可能です。

マトリクスへ
突入
モジュラーシンセの自由なパッチングとデジタルの正確性、アナログの豊かさを融合し、従来の枠を超越したポリシンセサウンドを体験できます。
32 target parameters, 64 connections in total. Rearrange PolyBrute’s signal chain with the touch of a single button. Dial in positive or negative amounts, intuitively assign one or more destinations via any relevant controls, instantly route PolyBrute’s array of performance controllers and advanced modulation sources to influence just about anything in the instrument’s chain - all without the spaghetti nest of wires.
しかし、マトリクスはモジュレーションのためだけでなく、PolyBruteのあらゆる面で中心的な役割を担っています。プリセットモードでは、768種類のプリセットをマトリクスで簡単に選択できますし、モーフィングモードでは高度なモーフィングエディットも行えます。シーケンサーモードではマトリクスをグラフィカルなパターンエディターとして使用できます。

Animate and automate
your sound
When you want to set your sound in motion, there’s no faster way than engaging PolyBrute’s Sequencer/Arpeggiator section, instantly accessible via the Transport section, Matrix, and keybed.
Trigger patterns from the keyboard or use the Hold mode to latch the keys you touch - freeing your hands to grab controllers, tweak parameters and/or play along. It’s the closest thing you can get to flying without leaving the ground.
32-Step Arpeggiator
We’ve taken the Arpeggiator way beyond the expected, giving you inspiring new modes ranging from predictable to delightfully random. When you hear something you like, the push of a button can even convert it to a sequence to preserve the magic of the moment - further editing and refinement optional.
64-Step Polyphonic Sequencer
Use either real-time or step input to record up to 64 steps, each with 6-voice polyphony. Record in Overdub or Overwrite mode, with velocity, accents, ties, and slides per step, then make refinements with streamlined Matrix-powered editing and management options - more than your everyday sequencer.
Jagged filter envelopes, effect decays, and vibrating polyphonic drones await.
You can play along live with your sequences via split and layer modes. Use controllers to change timbre and other PolyBrute parameters during playback - great for bringing nuance, character and dynamics to your sequence-aided performances. You can even record changes from up three different controllers into a sequence to automate textural changes.
Go for solid predictability or dial in the degree of random probability you want to continually shake things up.
Imagine the possibilities of doing that with just about any PolyBrute control. You can optionally set playback speed from 1/8 to 8x what you performed - and even loop playback for repetitive effects.
Motion Recorder
As if there aren’t enough ways to animate your PolyBrute patches, the Motion Recorder instantly captures your movement of almost any knob or controller - and then automatically plays that motion back with every triggered note.
Matrix Arpeggiator
If standard arpeggiation isn’t your game, the Matrix Arpeggiator mode combines the best of PolyBrute’s Arpeggiator and Sequencer into yet another innovative creative resource. Map which of up to six held notes will sound for each step, with mutes, octave transpose, slides, and even modulation tracks. Then that same pattern will apply to any notes you hold - craft melodies and ostinatos intelligently and intuitively.
デジタルエフェクトを
内蔵
PolyBrute incorporates built-in professional-grade digital effects into every patch, with parameters that can be modulated to no end - rounding off an all-encompassing palette worthy of any stage, studio, or soundtrack.
このエフェクトは単なる付属的なものではなく、高い評価を得ているFX Collectionのアルゴリズムが搭載されています。モジュレーション、ディレイ、リバーブの3タイプがあり、コーラスからビットクラッシャー、KarplusからBBDディレイ、プレートからドリーミーなリバーブまで、幅広いタイプの多彩なサウンドが広がる世界の扉を開くことができます。
PolyBruteのエフェクトはそのステレオ構造を活かせるよう特別に設計されており、インサーションエフェクトしてはもちろんのこと、ディレイとリバーブはセンドエフェクトとしても使用できます。
