This video, by Diego Pinzón of Man On The Living Road, demonstrates how to mod an Arturia MiniBrute into a MiniBrute SE.

While the MiniBrute and MiniBrute SE have differences in design and build quality, they are essentially the same synth with slightly different firmware settings. You can transform the digital ‘brain’ of the synth from a MiniBrute to MiniBrute SE, depending on whether you prefer a step sequencer or arpeggiator.

In the video, Pinzón demonstrates using a MiniBrute with the SE firmware mod to play the classic sequence from Pink Floyd’s On The Run. Then he discusses how he made the firmware mod. The video is in Spanish, with English subtitles.

See the Hackabrute site for details on the MiniBrute to MiniBrute SE mod. Note that mods will void your warranty.
