I've seen people ask about how the matrix in SYNTRX compares to the MatrixBrute - here's my take:
It's not about modulation routing (MatrixBrute) vs audio mixing (SYNTRX) like I've seen some say below, because SYNTRX can do both.
But indeed the outputs (sources) on MatrixBrute's matrix are all mod sources (and not audio sources), though you could theoretically route audio to the MatrixBrute expression inputs (see my video about MatrixBrute pairings for more info). However, there are no audio destinations on the MatrixBrute's matrix - so you cannot change the signal path in MatrixBrute like you can in SYNTRX.
Overall, MatrixBrute has way more features as a synth (more LFOs, more envelopes, physical keyboard, sequencer, splits, custom LFOs, way more CV connectivity, presets for everything not just the matrix etc) and especially the flexibility of 4 out of the 16 mod destinations being assignable to anything on the panel, which is a big deal. However, MatrixBrute isn't a fully modular synth like this one, and has no audio sources in the matrix by default like I mentioned above and no audio destinations.
As for the features of the matrix itself, MatrixBrute has negative mod depth and the mod depths themselves can be mod destinations. SYNTRX's mod matrix is simpler with only two attenuation levels in addition to a 100% passthru. No inversion, and you can't modulate the mod depth of a node.
MatrixBrute doesn't have ring mod though if I'm not mistaken, and its signal path isn't stereo except for the delays at the end, where as SYNTRX gives you stereo routing for every audio source.
In terms of sound character both are different - oscillators, filters and spring reverb vs stereo delays.
So.... bottom line, MatrixBrute is kind of like a kid that gets excellent grades on every subject in school, and SYNTRX is a whizkid at a few things it specializes in and can really shake things up in terms of the signal chain.
Just my take - feel free to comment below of course :)
