Arturia Drum Brute vs Mother

Post by DUBMCT » Tue Mar 21, 2017 2:12 pm

Hey All, I assume some of you may have a Drum Brute, i just got mine to add into the mix with my mother but i have a question, and hopefully i can get a quick answer here in the moog family even though it is a Arturia issue.
I have noticed both the bass drums exhibit pot noise when the drum is triggered and the volume pot is turned simultaneously . It sounds like a dirty pot, but only makes the noise when the drum is playing.
Hoping someone has one and can try to duplicate before i decide to return it.... the mother deserves better

Cheers and thanks for the help.

In case anyone is curious.
This issue is known to Arturia, and if "you change the pitch you can find spots where the volume doesn't make it crackle and hiss" It is part of the circuitry, so no firmware fix.
So if you plan on getting one of these, and think changing the bass drum volumes live is something you will be doing...be forewarned.
