Title: Will there be any future updates to this product?
Post by: psienide on March 01, 2019, 03:39:58 am

I love the MB2/S but it seems as though Arturia has relegated it to the catacombs of non-development. Will we ever see any further firmware updates? New or expanded features? 

It has been a year since the last update. Since then, many thoughtful suggestions have been suggested. Many issues have been unearthed that need addressing. Will Arturia take any of these seriously? I have seen some passing lip service to the issues and suggestions from Arturia staff, but nothing of substance as of yet.

Please, Arturia, let us know where this product stands. Are we just relegated to the dustbin? Or will one of the greatest semi-modular mono-synths in existence be maintained by the creator in a serious manner which considers its community?

I await some sort of movement here.

Sadly I fear all of the Feature Request boards are just fancy knickers and lip gloss these days. I can't name one product whose firmware or functionality has been substantially redesigned or improved as a result of the hundreds of suggestions freely given by users. Some users have been waiting a year or more just for the rollout of basic bug-fix patches to make their product work as described (exhibit A, look in the Matrixbrute subforum). Shame really.

Probably not

Always the same with this brand...
I bought alot and sold alot of their gear...

sometimes their tools feel like temporary try outs... instead of something that u can keep 2 drive your creativity

Credit where credit's due they did make the arp/seq switchable via sysex on the original Minibrute. That was a pretty big deal.
