Matrix Ctrlr Kit – ECO (Matrix-Ctrlr-KIT-ECO) is out of stock.

thanks for your confidence <3

of course we will restock for the last quarter 😉

Many of you are asking when the Matrix Ctrlr & the One-O-Six Chorus will be available again. Well, they are !

We have received the printed circuit boards, and now we offer aluminium with silkscreen for the frontpanels ! Half of the components are in our drawers and the other half is flying from China to EU, or are already in France. We are working on a new back enclosure (affordable) but it takes time to design in our buggy CAD software.

Notice that we had to increase a little our prices but we keep our products on sale until the end of the month, so don’t wait to order 🙂

I would like to thank all of the customers for their patience. It was worth the wait when i see the quality of the panels !

Yours sincerely, Julien

EDIT : sales are running until 15th of August finally

A new Matrix Ctrlr firmware is available on GitHub as a free update :

• better workflow to save the patches (turning the encoder show temporarily the name and the position). Thanks to Thomas P. Heckmann for the help !
• minor enhancements on boot to reach quickly Test Mode.
• Chord Memory based on Roland alpha Juno feature

On page5 of ARP menu, 3 different chords (e.g : Major, minor and 7dim) can be memorised at the same time and you select the one you need  :

They are empty by default. To create a chord in cm1 slot, press KEY3 to select. Press KEY1 to record the chord. Play a chord on your keyboard (6 notes max), release. The chord is in memory cm1 (wiped on power off). You can immediately find back this chord by pressing C4 (midi note 60) on your keyboard and transpose it all along the other keys ; this is very inspired by alpha Juno.

Many people are asking for Matrix Ctrlr kits. We are working on it, but you may know that the prices of the components have been multiplied by 2 or 3 lately, especially semiconductors – and there is a chips shortage on top of that ! Taxes and freight are also higher, so we do our best to keep costs down (we have to be very creative). You may expect a little rise in our prices …

Today is the day of the black friday and we propose you a 15% discount on our available products by using the BLACKFRIDAY2021 coupon ! valid until 30th of November

An opportunity to get the Stereo One-O-Six Chorus, the perfect companion bringing the Juno 106 touch to your sound.

We are still working on the design of the Matrix Ctrlr SMT PCB so that automated machines could assemble the boards for us :

notice there is v1.39 firmware 

A short application to test your arduino mega and detect if there are very thin short or cold solder joints between the pins/connectors. Useful if your buttons are not detected for example (we had a defective board with a short between pin 10 and 11, disabling SRIO function scanning the buttons).

Simply upload the sketch and then with a single wire you can monitor through Serial at 115200 bauds that the pin is good : pin 13 is the output pin alternating a state 1/0 while Serial indicates if the tested pin is working. All pins are tested so you can pass from one pin to another with the monitor window opened without rebooting, simply by moving the wire.

pin10 is tested on the picture below :

Increase the delay(5) to delay(150) to see the source output pin blinking. Sketch to download :
