when you play the second rightmost A of the keyboard and the default Octave is 
selected. The full range of the Fine Tuning knob is from about -2 semitones to +2 
semitones. The Fine-tune knob is recessed to prevent it from being bumped. Just press 
the knob and it will pop out, allowing for easy adjustment. 
Audio Outputs 
Connect the Line Out jack to an audio mixer, a computer’s sound card, or 
directly to an audio amplifier using a ¼” mono cable. You can connect a 
pair  of  ear  buds  or  headphones  to  Phones  output.  The Master  Volume 
knob on the front panel controls the output level of both these jacks.  
CV / GATE I/O  
The  MicroBrute  also  connects  with  other  analog  devices  (analog  synthesizer,  analog 
step sequencer, etc.) through a CV/GATE interface where CV means Control Voltage. 
The Gate In 1/8” jack allows other analog devices to trigger the MicroBrute envelopes. 
The  main  MicroBrute  functions  (i.e.,  filter  cutoff, and  oscillator  pitch)  are  controlled  by 
the Cutoff and Pitch jacks in the Mod Matrix.  
The MicroBrute can also control other analog devices. The Pitch Out 1/8” jack 
provides the CV produced by the MicroBrute keyboard as well as by the Pitch 
wheel. The keyboard’s GATE signal is also available on the Gate Out 1/4” jack.  
The Gate is a standard positive going 0-10V gate. 
The CV inputs and outputs are standard 1V per octave.
