My only request, if it were possible, is for the Polybrute
to be MPE capable, to be used with MPE controllers
like the Linnstrument, seaboard, continuum, etc.

I 2nd this request.

I'll come back after I put my hands on one and tested. Awesome product!!

+ 1 for MPE!
Also,
– slower LFOs (at least several minutes)
– .scl support or some other microtuning capability
… would be totally awesome!

MPE support is essential for me. I don't need all modulation destinations to be controllable via MPE, but the more the better. Two MPE features that are absolutely essential for me are polyphonic pitch bend and polyphonic aftertouch. As soon as Arturia commits to adding MPE support that meets my needs and commits to doing so in the near future (within 3 months or so), then I'll order (or pre-order) a Polybrute at Sweetwater (US).

MPE is the only thing keeping me from buying this synth. I own a MatrixBrute and love it. I want this badly. It is a futuristic synth and this requires the ability to interface with midi of the future.
I will buy it tomorrow if MPE is added.
-
+1 on MPE
–> Haken Continuum here, which wishes to be married to the mighty Polybrute...
-
I just pre-ordered a Jammy Evo midi guitar controller, which is MPE capable.
It makes me really really hope even more that Arturia will implement MPE capability on the
Polybrute. 6 voices = 6 strings, perfect.

Arturia, please dont blow off this MPE request. Every time you guys do a PolyBrute Q&A session this topic comes up. Your rep is oftentimes very cynical regarding MPE implementation ::). Lack of MPE is keeping me (and others) from buying the synth. Trust me, Novation and UDO are on top of MPE for their flagships. The PB is such a great synth--I would hate to see arrogance cause you guys to overlook this critical enhancement. MPE controllers are growing in popularity exponentially. Listen to your user base! Thanks. ;) (Devoted Arturia fan that owns a bunch of Arturia stuff)

Yes, as much MPE (if Full is not possible) support as possible.
Apparently PolyBrute do respond to PolyPhonicAftertouch but I don't have my studio set up (rebuilding) so I can not try it out with my Seaboard. Also waiting for Osmose to be released and it would be nice if PolyBrute would recognize and use MPE+ but I can see that being a bit of a stretch ;)
-
Plus 1 on this !
-
+1 ;D
-
+1 Would make the Brute an even better beast...

Hi everyone
Just joined the forum to say +1 to this request. Bought the Polybrute about a month ago, Im extremely happy.
I bought an OB-6 aswell (waiting for it to arrive), and want to invest in a low frequency expander. It would be great to have MPE in the Polybrute aswell.
Thanks!
-
I also support everyone who wrote above! +++
-
PLEASE add MPE support. I beg of thee.
-
Yes Mpe functionality would be fantastic :)
is there anywhere we can find out when new firmware is likely to be released and maybe a list of thinks in the works, thank you
-
Yes !!!
MPE receive and send via the ribbon and morphée !
-
+1

+1 !!

Please Arturia it's 2022!
MPE for Polybrute please!
It is 46 years since CS-80 offered polyphonic aftertouch!
-
+1. Immediate buy and swap out with other gear when the Polybrute gets MPE.
-
Basically registered an account here just to say this. I don't own the Polybrute, but I'm really eyeing it at the moment. I'm going to buy the Expressive E Osmose when it comes out, and I really want an analog synth that can be controlled by it. It would be really intresting to hear someone from Auturia comment on if this even is theoretical possible with the Polybrute.
Just a question: Would it, even in theory, be possible to get polyphonic aftertouch on the Polybrute from the internal keyboard, or is aftertouch somehow global in the hardware itself? If you hook up the Polybrute as a midi controller, do you get individual aftertouch from each key separately?
-

The keyboard can't produce poly aftertouch. It only has a single "sensor".
I think in a live stream they mentioned that it should be technically possible to achieve on the synth with an external controller though.

There is indeed only a single sensor, but the PB has the rather nifty duophonic aftertouch feature which can do "the trick", as it were, in many situations - check it out :)
It can already receive poly aftertouch, and that works fine with an external controller - I use a MicroFreak for that
-
Agree MPE would make this great synth even greater
-
This is a critical feature request for me too. I cannot see the music production without MPE anymore. Arturia, please hurry up, my Seaboard Rise 2 will arrive in December 2022, you still have time to address this important feature! Thanks!
-
I know it is a little off-topic, but would'nt it be possible to make the "standard" keys (white/black) of a keyboard be MPE sensitive?
The costs would be higher of course. Another French company has made it "Expressive E Osmose". Every key has a 3 way MPE option - very much like the Morpheé...
EDIT: emanuelsj - I do not have a MPE keyboard. But I tried something out, what makes me wonder: the PB seems to be able to play 6-voice aftertouch - individually every voice !
- I have a AKAI MPCX - playing the pads of it (they are aftertouch sensitive of course) and the midi signal of aftertouch of each pad triggers individual modulation. Tried it with the preset "After Touch Brass". It is not MPE as such, but more than the PB keyboard can do. So the Rise can maybe trigger things the official announcement is not describing.
Maybe somebody can verify my experience and maybe somebody has the Rise 1 - to test even more.
The Polybrute seems to have hidden treasures :-)
Listen to this, I added "Pitch VCO1" to the aftertouch to make it more obious: listen to attached mp3
-
+ 1 to this.
-
+1 Plus one. Polybrute would be an amazing synth engine to the new Expressive E Osmose, a Roli Sesboard or Harkan Continuum. MPE support would be superb. The prophet can do it why not this ?
-
Polybrute owner here and I've got an Expressive E on order, coming soon hopefully, so I'd love to see MPE support too. I wonder if it's possible?
-
I’m bumping this again.
Arturia, if it is possible with a firmware update
To make the Polybrute MPE compatible for external MPE controllers, please consider it.
Many of your software products have this now.
The polybrute is very deep for modulating which would make it great for MPE.
-
I'll throw a wrench in and vote NO on MPE. MPE is for violin players, not keyboard players. It's blasphemous. Keep this synth a synth.
-
+1 for MPE
I don't own a PolyBrute yet, but if MPE is added, instant buy! I have the Osmose and I imagine the PolyBrute would be amazing to play with? ;)
