editHello all,
Not to jump on anyone's article here, but would you include the Xpander in this group, as it is essentially a keyboardless Matrix 12 with half of the voices? -- Two Halves, who is showing his age yet again!!!
- Your description "a keyboardless Matrix 12 with half of the voices" also describes the Matrix 1000 and Matrix 6R. If you've got the specs (I don't), go ahead and add the Xpander! --Ds13 06:49, 22 April 2006 (UTC)
Hi everyone, I'm a matrix 6 user, just to clarify: the vibrato acts as a global LFO which can be routed to any other parameter via Matrix Modulation, while in the oscillator section you can choose not to affect the pitch via the global LFO. The terminology is a bit confusing as it's called Vibrato on the manual and the panel, maybe because it's routed to act as a vibrato by default, but it's really a third LFO with the same waveform selection of the other two, the only difference is that is a global LFO and not per voice. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 93.147.0.238 (talk) 11:17, 29 December 2020 (UTC)

editI removed the long-uncited row in the table. (3 years and no one came forward to offer references.) But so the original list/effort is not lost, I pasted below the alleged users of the Matrix synths. --Ds13 (talk) 04:00, 6 November 2011 (UTC)
