I just got an system 1m unit and i love it, thing is that when I plug my microbrute to the EXT IN jack i get a VERY low signal level even though the master volume on the microbrute is on its max value. Any suggestions please? It's driving me crazy.

Was about muse a bit on line level output and eurorack output, but then found this:

Specifically this part:
Eurorack audio signals usually have a level of ±5V (10Vss), while the mircobrute audio in- and outputs are line level, which usually means at most ±1.7V (3.4Vss) for pro audio.
and
So you need an amplifier with a gain up to three or four if you want to get the signal from the brute into a modular.
Hope it helps :)
