Title: Connecting and triggering Drumbrute and MatrixBrute
Post by: flaminghead on October 01, 2020, 08:03:58 pm
Hey all! OK,  am an 'old' guitarist going back to my teen years and passion ie synths. Have used a few over the years but really on the surface and basic set ups. Now, I find myself with a MatrixBrute (yes!) and with the simplest of questions. Though I seem to be able to understand filters, LFOs etc etc...I can't seem to find the way to trigger/sync my drumbrute at the same time as my matrixbrute. Simple and should be obvious...maybe I should go back to easier things like tuning my guitar lol. But can anyone help me? Essentially I would like to trigger some 'drum patterns' on the drumbrute with the sequences I have set up in the matrixbrute. Am sure it's obvious but would be really happy if someone could enlighten me  ::)\

Oh, I am intending to use it to link it up with Logic on my Mac.

Thanks in anticipation.

It's simpler than you may think. Basically, just connect the MatrixBrute MIDI Out to the DrrumBrute MIDI in, set a couple of options and you should be able to synchronize them. There are some details in this thread:

Have a go at that, and if you run into problems, we can go through it here.

Thanks Dr, I forgot to reply. I did do that, was the first thing I did but couldn't seem to sort out why it wouldn't trigger hence here I am. Will read the thread properly and if I get nowhere will get back to you again  :)
