ARTURIA – DrumBrute – USER’S MANUAL 11
2.1.2 …with external devices
As you can see, the DrumBrute can be the backbone of some amazing systems.
2.1.2.1 MIDI devices
There are lots of great devices that only have MIDI ports (no clock sync, no USB).
DrumBrute will fit right in with these systems: it will sync with MIDI sequencers,
arpeggiators, and other drum machines, and its own drum sounds may be played from a
MIDI keyboard. And of course it can send and receive MIDI data using the USB port of
your computer.
2.1.2.2 Clock sources/destinations
The Clock input and output can synchronize with older clock types such as 24 pulses per
quarter note (ppqn), 48 ppqn, 2 ppqn (Korg), or even a single pulse per step.
See section 8.2.2 for information about what cables to use with other sync connections
and formats.
