If you’ve ever looked an Arturia MatrixBrute synthesizer and wondered “What Would Jexus Do?”, this video has got you covered.
Sound designer Jexus / WC Olo Garb gives the MatrixBrute a workout, demonstrating a wide range of custom sounds.
“I’m a fan of everything gnarly, dirty, organic, wonky & unstable (because I want music to sound that way too). And the Matrixbrute timbre is all of that,” notes Jexus. “It’s almost acoustic – it reminds me of the way the soviet Polivoks behaved. It’s the most alive timbre I’ve heard in a decade, and for me that one characteristic places the Matrixbrute among the best modern synths.”

Pricing and Availability
The Jexus MatrixBrute sound library is available now for € 24,00.
Really cool demo!
His video work is creatively creepy, but his sound demos turn over every rock other people miss. They show you what the usual arps and string mutants are like. Then Jexus gives you a bite of the mushroom and you get a Willy-Wonka trip through the synth’s deepest layers. A mad-times champion for mad synth sounds.
Well said!
Jexus has a proclivity toward certain sounds regardless of the instrument. Some are familiar here from previous videos.
You can get the same type of gnarly and almost acoustic-type sound from a microbrute. It’s either love/hate for nearly anyone coming across it.
