Midi; Midi Continuous Controller Assignments - Arturia MatrixBrute User Manual

6. MIDI

In addition to the keyboard, almost all MatrixBrute's knobs, sliders, and wheels
send and respond to MIDI, so you can record and edit their movements in a
DAW running on a computer. That makes the instrument useful as a hands-on
controller for external instruments, not just a master keyboard.
MIDI can go in and out the USB port, the 5-pin DIN ports, both, or neither. All the
MIDI settings are in Arturia's MIDI Control Center Mac/PC program, which you
download from www.arturia.com. (See below.)
The sequencer and arpeggiator can lock to MIDI clock. They send MIDI notes, so
you can record and edit the notes they send in a DAW. Since the LFOs can lock
to MIDI and then be patched anywhere, effectively everything on the instrument
can be in tempo.

6.1. MIDI Continuous Controller Assignments

In the graphic above, the numbers superimposed over knobs are all MIDI
Continuous Controllers (CC), so for example the Modulation wheel sends/
receives MIDI CC#1, and Macro knob 1 to its right sends/receives CC#11
(Expression).
While the Pitch wheel is unmarked, it is active; pitch isn't a CC in the MIDI
protocol - it's a separate command in the protocol. If you connect expression
pedals 1 or 2 to the rear panel, they have duplicate CC assignments to Macro
knobs 3's and 4's (to the left of the keyboard). The Sustain pedal input in the rear
is CC#64, which is standard.
