The product designers at Arturia are coming up with some excellent stuff. Great build quality, fantastic sounds, and a thing of beauty too. A modern classic.
Just imagine what Edgar Froese would've done with this machine. Unbelievable. Bitter sweet to think about how far technology has come and those we lost who aren't here to enjoy and create with it.
ARTURIA Polybrute : 20 kg de puissance et de technologie française !!! Made in France 🇫🇷 Another great demonstration and video. Thank you Doctor Mix !!!
@@LabofmusicRecords Quand même, vous ne pouvez pas nier qu'Arturia fait des produits de qualités. Comme vous les suisse qui font de délicieux chocolats et fromages. 😉
@@lairdtomfrenchelectromusic2545 Excuse moi, but I don't speak French, sorry :) But yes, swiss chocola est tres bon :-) edit: and yes, I really like the PolyBrute, I need one, such a nice instrument, well donne ma french people :)
we are living through the golden age of synthesizers. while there's been many great vintage synths.. i really think that synthesizers in 2021 are better than ever.
Wowzers, imagine being in a position where companies just give you their new synths. Also remember when arturia just made plugins? What an amazing journey they've been on.
It's a real game changer. As soon as I get mine creativity will break loose. I already own the Matrixbrute and Minibrute. Unbeatable combination these Three
That's a really cool machine. Nowadays is a great period for synthesizers. After being fed with PCM-based synths and workstations, which dominated the manufacturers' catalogs for nearly 2 decades starting from the 90ies, finally there's a great choice of whatever you want being analog, digital, hardware or software.
Polybrute: *has a crazy 6D expression-device-touché-clone-thing stuck to its side* Claudio: Ehh nahh, that dusty expression pedal will do just fine xDD
15:57 THX sound. Good to see the Doctor getting some Arturia love in. Watching and waiting for him to discover all the features of the expression pad.... 16:23 there it is!
The Polybrute is simply; Brutal! I don't have to look any further for a synthesizer I like. Its not exactly cheap at 2500 Euro but also not out of reach for the average musician.
That was soooo good Doctor Mix! There'll never be a better demo of the PolyBrute.. all of that moved me too, I love your playing!! That was so cool, entertaining and fun 😁✌
Waiting for this to arrive in the studio since early December. Good to see them popping up everywhere now ! Very excited :) Always great to see someone enjoying a new instrument right out the box btw :) Just gotta play it !
Wow. A beautiful synth! I could fall in love with it. BTW: your chords between 19:45 and 23:38 are so Alan Holdsworth style that I imagined his guitar may fade in every second. Very nice!
I love it! Your mind will be blown when you discover that there's a second piece of wood that makes sound on this synth 😉 They did advertize the morph function a lot on this synth as well. Can't wait to hear more Claudio!
Arturia has real quality products. And impeccable after-sales service, I personally had excellent relations with the technical department. I love ARTURIA. thank you Claudio. . neeeeeeeext lol
The ARTURIA POLYBRUTE is a real dream machine. The manual for this synthesizer only scratches the surface of the possibilities that are possible with this machine. The 384 different patching options alone are enormous. Then there are the various hardware pots and buttons, which offer further combination options. You can really lose yourself in this machine. A very long training period must be planned. Thank you for the cover. 😀🎇
I'm waiting mine, ordered in September. I'm happy to see you discovering this MACHINE ! I love to sculpt the sound and I think this synth can do it ! I love you video, you're like a child font of a new toy !
I have to say.. this synth is very impressive for what I have seen and heard. The Moog One is one of the most amazing synths coming from Moog...but that is a whopping 9k. But this newer synth from Arcturia is a 3rd of the cost and just maybe a bit more amazing. Tell me if I am wrong...
I'd say the pads and the sequencers are the features of the synth that shine the most. Cool electric piano fusion sounds too. And Doctor mix is playing so that makes it that much better lol. Great video!
I am still waiting for THIS! Do we get a T and a bag and a beanie for extra wait, its cold in California too :) Great to see Claudio intrigued and captivated instantly, going into sound art making spheres, can't stop making art on a spot!
What a synth ! 😃 Thanks a lot , Claudio , to make us discover with your talent and your enthusiam , this awsome gear . Definitely , if you keep this one , you'll need a studio B ...😄 Cheers
wow great synth . I think you should exchange that sofa for a sofa-bed ,i wouldn't be able to leave that place until i've gone through every preset of every synth, so that means not going home for days or even weeks lol
Wonderful music great keyboard. Well played. Loved listening to you play. Always delight at your talent on the keyboard . Wishing you a good week. Take care stay safe god bless.xxx🙏🙏🎺🎸🎹⭐️👍
Be happy. Be amazing. This is why Doctor Mix is the man. Thank you for such a great exploration! If I had an extra $2,500, I would drop it for the sound made at 17:41
Claudio, you are an influencer and you have been 'gifted' a product by a brand. When a brand gives you a gift it is considered a 'payment' (i.e. any form of monetary payment, free loan of a product/service, any incentive and/or commission or a product/service has been given free) and any resulting social media post or video promoting that brand becomes subject to consumer protection law which is enforced by the Competition and Markets Authority in the UK. If the brand, Arturia for example, has editorial control over the final content then further consumer protection laws come into play as well. I love your channel and videos Claudio but you need to be REALLY careful here as you may be breaking advertising rules in the UK. I'm not an expert on this by any stretch of the imagination but basically you are promoting a brand in this video and they have gifted you the product (i.e. paid you) and the title of the video did not state that this was an advert before I clicked on it - this would be breaking consumer protection law. Yes it is an advert. If you had purchased the synth yourself then that would be entirely different but you would also need to be clear about that upfront to avoid any doubt. Were there other sweeteners in the box as well, such as a pillow, t-shirt, carry bag, pen, keyring, or does everyone that buys the synth get those too? I'm not going to report you, this is not about that, I just want you to be careful and not fall foul of the law. I want to keep enjoying your videos but you need to be careful and really clear when a video is a paid promotion (advert) or not. Best wishes
Was a time when digital emulated analog: now with Arturia PB we can see the opposite thing: seems analog enters in the field of ambient-evolving over-effected sounds we where used to listen to with digital sinths and in recent years with VST "drone sinths" like dune, u-hes etc...IMHO I prefer analog classic, raw sounds PS: After listening better here and to other demos I've to admit that this sinth has all that huge, raw analog sound and strong muscles
I need this.... need this. This is probably the synth i have been looking for. Time to get rid of some stuff for financing this beauty. Thank's Doctor Mix for the energy you put in your videos :)
You just managed to make the mythical THX sound (you called it Miramax) all like that without even looking at the manual because you like the exploration? And right after the trippy happy geese? Wut. I love your power.
ya didn't use the strip man, right above keys. but I'm sure you will....ran it thru two Bose S1s, sounded bitchin. I have a polybrute and I,m a sax player...no regrets, I'm gonna learn this crittrer.....Thanks Doc
Awsome man, as always makin me jelous about your impro skills and instant creativity... :'( xD But I'm afraid you just forgot to mention one of the polybrutes finest features: that little knob in the bottom left labeled "morph". That is just pure magic !
I just love watching this man discover a new instrument. It's never wasted time.
The product designers at Arturia are coming up with some excellent stuff. Great build quality, fantastic sounds, and a thing of beauty too. A modern classic.
“This synthesiser is full of consequences” - best observation from many comments made in other reviews!!!
Consequences of paradise.
Just imagine what Edgar Froese would've done with this machine. Unbelievable.
Bitter sweet to think about how far technology has come and those we lost who aren't here to enjoy and create with it.
The thought of going back in time and handing these synths to some of the OG’s. I can only imagine!

we are living through the golden age of synthesizers.
while there's been many great vintage synths.. i really think that synthesizers in 2021 are better than ever.
That XYZ pad is a great surprise, but the wooden strip above the keyboard is also a ribbon controller!
Yeah, I actually watched to the end just to see how Flavio reacts to then 🥳
Yes, nur that’s in the manual ;)
Thank you. The entire video I was like..."is he gonna find the ribbon?"
He certainly did not find the most innovative thing on this synth (and IMO the strongest selling point) the morph button.
Wowzers, imagine being in a position where companies just give you their new synths. Also remember when arturia just made plugins? What an amazing journey they've been on.
It's a real game changer. As soon as I get mine creativity will break loose. I already own the Matrixbrute and Minibrute. Unbeatable combination these Three
so how did the polybrute work out for you?
A box fresh Polybrute free of charge. Sir Mix you are winning at life. Congratulations.
And getting it before the crowd does...must buy a tripod and start filming me on RUclips😂
@@DasHemdchen Viel Glück dammit
23:44 dude, how are you just gonna bust out the most soulful rendition of "time after time" I've ever heard like nothing? Amazing!
WHAT A SYNTH!! Absolutely amazing how it sounds ! !
The sound you were thinking of was the THX Theater Sound Warmup.
came to say this. :D
Hahaha me too
It is called "Deep note"
it's called portamento
@@YlowX7 the THX brand identity for it is Deep Note: ruclips.net/video/6grjzBmHVTY/видео.html
That's a really cool machine.
Nowadays is a great period for synthesizers. After being fed with PCM-based synths and workstations, which dominated the manufacturers' catalogs for nearly 2 decades starting from the 90ies, finally there's a great choice of whatever you want being analog, digital, hardware or software.
Lately Arturia is doing a great job in reviving these classic analog sounds, they play incredibly well.
19:55 - Wow! That pad was veeery nice! Sound design capabilities on this thing are ridiculous. Great playing as always Dr Mix! 😊
Polybrute: *has a crazy 6D expression-device-touché-clone-thing stuck to its side*
Claudio: Ehh nahh, that dusty expression pedal will do just fine xDD
Alternative: put your left foot on the touché thingy, but i doubt he is that flexible 😊
15:57 THX sound. Good to see the Doctor getting some Arturia love in. Watching and waiting for him to discover all the features of the expression pad.... 16:23 there it is!
The Polybrute is simply; Brutal!
I don't have to look any further for a synthesizer I like.
Its not exactly cheap at 2500 Euro but also not out of reach for the average musician.
If I received a Polybrute free of charge, also I would be laughing like Freddy on the Elm street
At the start of the unboxing I thought, wow, that's a nice touch to have a wooden wireless phone charger built in.
I thought “the coffee cup holder is missing!”
Claudio: *Starts playing*
Mothership: We hear you loud and clear!
The Polybrute gives me major CS-80 vibes! Love it!
Got my Polybrute yesterday! Connected it today to my Hydrasynth by MIDI, and the combined sound was like a movie soundtrack fully mixed... but LIVE.
Man, im so glad i was introduced to synths on this channel. I think its been over 2 years and i got the bug 😄
You got our attention!! This thing has massive cool sounds. Oh, oh, oh, and oh.
That was soooo good Doctor Mix!
There'll never be a better demo of the PolyBrute.. all of that moved me too, I love your playing!!
That was so cool, entertaining and fun 😁✌
Waiting for this to arrive in the studio since early December. Good to see them popping up everywhere now ! Very excited :)
Always great to see someone enjoying a new instrument right out the box btw :) Just gotta play it !
Are you making a video? I'd like to see what you can do teacher.
@@trancextend I most certainly will do multiple videos with the PolyBrute ;)
Wow. A beautiful synth! I could fall in love with it. BTW: your chords between 19:45 and 23:38 are so Alan Holdsworth style that I imagined his guitar may fade in every second. Very nice!
16:00 THX....the audicence is listening....my neighbours too! XD
I love it! Your mind will be blown when you discover that there's a second piece of wood that makes sound on this synth 😉
They did advertize the morph function a lot on this synth as well. Can't wait to hear more Claudio!
Best synth in the last 15 years imo
"This is truly beautiful"... indeed.
Good demo too, shows this keyboard could very well be something for everyone!
It was at 16:55 that the airlock opened and you stepped out into zero gravity without looking back…
What a cool instrument.
Oh, man, I can smell that fresh new plastic and metal! So sweet!
Arturia has real quality products. And impeccable after-sales service, I personally had excellent relations with the technical department. I love ARTURIA. thank you Claudio. . neeeeeeeext lol
Awww thanks JP! Neeeeeeext! 😂
A sound designer's dream I think. Especially the morph function.
Someday, I will own this synth..i promise myself. It is my determination to work extra hard to save money for this.
i demand another version of this video but 3 hours long
I love this guy and people with so much enthusiasm
I have both poly and matrix, love them both equally.
It moved me too. No doubt several sounds are really much worthy !! :))

Loving the standard lamp by the sofa! Jeez that sound!! Wow!
AFAIC, Moog and Arturia are the best synth companies out there right now.
AFAIC?
@@mortenrobinson As far as I’m concerned AFAIC don’t make many good synthesizers
You're right @Drmix. This is (even more than) beautiful, together with The Schmidt probably the best present poly analogue.
congratulation
you are the one discovering why they put the the touché under the wheels, and not in the other order.
always good as usual.
That's very good younger brother of MatrixBrute:) Really powerful and good demo, Claudio! Greetings!
I'm waiting mine, ordered in September. I'm happy to see you discovering this MACHINE ! I love to sculpt the sound and I think this synth can do it ! I love you video, you're like a child font of a new toy !
I have to say.. this synth is very impressive for what I have seen and heard. The Moog One is one of the most amazing synths coming from Moog...but that is a whopping 9k. But this newer synth from Arcturia is a 3rd of the cost and just maybe a bit more amazing. Tell me if I am wrong...
25:15 - of course Pat Metheny " Here to Stay" from the record We Live Here
Yayyyyyyyyyyyy
okay thnks for saying who it was, i need to hear it now
I'd say the pads and the sequencers are the features of the synth that shine the most. Cool electric piano fusion sounds too. And Doctor mix is playing so that makes it that much better lol. Great video!
It's a great pleasure to See your presentations. Greetings from Austria
I am still waiting for THIS! Do we get a T and a bag and a beanie for extra wait, its cold in California too :)
Great to see Claudio intrigued and captivated instantly, going into sound art making spheres, can't stop making art on a spot!
14:10 and yes, Alan Parsons Project, how cool was that!
Only a Tbag for ya
@@nneeerrrd hehe alright, only PB is fine, I provide a teabag :)
Never have I wanted something so beautiful.
Nice video!
Your videos are perfect, this is the kind of thing I like to watch.
"Obrigado por este review"! thanks for the great content. greetings from Brazil! 👏🎹👊
Oh wow, I've watched a few very analytical vids on the Polybrute, but this one made me actually want to swim with one. Nice work Claudio! Made my day!
you know this will be a good video with the amount of maniacal giggling Dr.Mix does at the beginning
Congrats Claudio! PolyBrute sounds great 😀 🎹
What a synth ! 😃 Thanks a lot , Claudio , to make us discover with your talent and your enthusiam , this awsome gear .
Definitely , if you keep this one , you'll need a studio B ...😄 Cheers
wow great synth . I think you should exchange that sofa for a sofa-bed ,i wouldn't be able to leave that place until i've gone through every preset of every synth, so that means not going home for days or even weeks lol
I have one of these! Love it!!!!!
first time I've seen someone use the morphe pad with his palm while modding with the wheels. Very cool.
one month more and I will buy this amazing synth. I so cannot wait!
Claudio, this is a really BRUTE beast. Geez, I'm amazed. Great stuff again. :)
3:36 Oingo Boingo - Stay just came into my mind!
Wonderful music great keyboard. Well played. Loved listening to you play. Always delight at your talent on the keyboard . Wishing you a good week. Take care stay safe god bless.xxx🙏🙏🎺🎸🎹⭐️👍
Be happy. Be amazing.
This is why Doctor Mix is the man. Thank you for such a great exploration!
If I had an extra $2,500, I would drop it for the sound made at 17:41
how have arturia not sponsored this video? AWESOME synthesizer!
They gave me the synth :-)
@@Doctormix I wish Arturia gave me a Polybrute as well
For the UK laws it's Paid Promotion
Claudio got all those accessories which weren’t in my package. :/

Love it!!! Love your playing brother!! You are blessed :) Keep making music! 💥
The goodies are cuuuuute. Look at that Microfreak keychain :D And that knitted hat is perfect for the winter season now.
omg I loved the part you played "time after time" from cimdi lauper, you moved me. Thank you.
Aren't you just loving the filter in this thing 🎹 🎶 😎

The best hand movement intro! I laughed out loud! :))))
know what? i love your channel Dr. Mix. just simple love it)
Thanks!!!! 🕺
Great demo! Love the energy you put into making it.
I thought that wooden panel was some kind of NFC phone dock. But it's so much cooler than that! Awesome machine
I will be playing mine in about 2 weeks!
Removing that protection tape from the keys....Sheer pleasure!
Dr Mix and his magic thumb rings make beautiful synth music.
Congratulation Doctor mix,you deserved it..
What a perfect sinthesyzer to do epic movies soundtracks! Hugs from Brazil!

Claudio, The best out there!!!!!!!!
"See it goes like from super happy, you know...almost... three piggies." God, I love you Claudio.
10:00 take my money please!!!! So epic and retro and futuro and heavenly!
loved that Dolby sound!
That was amazing Bro! Arturia! PolYBRUTE-Ez elképesztő volt!.... from Budapest, Hungary!
I must have it. Thanks Claudio
!
ya didn't use the strip man, right above keys. but I'm sure you will....ran it thru two Bose S1s, sounded bitchin. I have a polybrute and I,m a sax player...no regrets, I'm gonna learn this crittrer.....Thanks Doc
Amazing Claudio! One thing you missed was the wooden ribbon controller in the center top of the keys. But more for you to experience later! Take care!
I like the Flavor of THAT Brute a lot more already than the ones of the other Brutes that to me always sounded wayyy too aggressive and harsh.
It certainly sounds like a different beast
what a beauuuuutiful synthesizer!
1:10 - "Oh Doctor Mix, unbox me like one of your french synthesizers"
Awsome man, as always makin me jelous about your impro skills and instant creativity... :'( xD
But I'm afraid you just forgot to mention one of the polybrutes finest features: that little knob in the bottom left labeled "morph". That is just pure magic !
