Mine seems to have a limit as to how high it can go in this reguard, and i was wondering if this was normal? I've just never seen this anomaly mentioned anywhere.

    I mean, technically the korg monotron kicked off the cheap small analog synth revolution with stuff like the monotron. they basically pioneered the idea of small and cheap and proved to the world analog could be done like that, they then put that engine into the monotribe which came out before the minibrute, arturia took it a step further and made it more like a proper actual synth instrument for people in bands or musicians to play with loads of potential for patching. but the concept was done and the new analog revolution was kick started by korg. the brute is an amazing synth, but I wish they used different physical knobs, they often had a problem with getting really grimey and sticky. thanks for including the information about yves usson and his amazing work, great bit of history there.
