2.6. MCC Settings mode

This section refers to section 7.3 "Settings mode" (p.58) in the matrixBrute 2.0 manual

It's quicker to use the MIDI Control Center to change these settings because you can see

them all at once. But you can change them without a computer attached: simply access

Settings mode.

To do this, hold  SEQ + MOD. The Preset display flashes PAR and the Sequencer

display flashes the word EDIT. After 2 seconds the Matrix buttons will reveal the settings,

which then can be changed using the Matrix buttons.

• The buttons related to the selected parameter are brighter than the others.
• Available values for the selected parameter are lit blue.
• The current value for the selected parameter is purple.
• Available values for all non-selected parameters are a dim blue.
• The current values for all non-selected parameters are a dim purple.
• The parameters in each row are separated by dark buttons, which are inactive.

Here's what the various rows and lit buttons represent, and which MCC parameters they

access:
