The Arturia MINIFREAK Polyphonic Hybrid Synthesizer bridges the gap between analog and digital, featuring two powerful digital sound engines paired with analog filtering. Designed for both sound creation and unique sequencing, the MINIFREAK provides all the tools necessary for crafting and performing. With 6-voice polyphony and over 20 modes, this synthesizer allows for deep exploration into polyphonic synthesis, from virtual analog to FM and additive synthesis.
Enhanced Sound Design and Expression
The onboard digital FX engine adds texture and color to your synthesis, offering multiple ways to alter the timbre of your sound. The 37-note velocity-sensitive keybed with aftertouch allows for added expression. The intricate modulation matrix builds on previous 'FREAK' units, featuring polyphonic ADSR envelopes and customizable multi-segment LFO shapes. FM and ring modulation options further enhance your sound design capabilities.
Versatile Performance and Sequencing
Perfect for both studio and stage, the MINIFREAK shines with its intuitive 64-step sequencer, ideal for creating live performances, arrangements, loops, and patterns with four pages of 16 steps each. The performance arpeggiator includes octave randomization and ratchet settings. The crisp OLED display provides real-time visual feedback for easy navigation of settings and parameters.
Firmware 2.0 - Expanded Capabilities
Firmware 2.0 enhances the MiniFreak's capabilities, introducing wavetable synthesis with 32 factory wavetables and 64 patches. New effects like the 'Super Unison' expand the stereo field, creating rich, layered tones. The upgraded 'Shaper LFO' allows for custom LFO shapes. Clock and transport connectivity enable sync with other modular/audio gear, and an upgraded favorites panel offers quick access to 64 presets.
Hybrid Polyphony and VST Integration
The MINIFREAK stands out with its 6-voice polyphony, combining two digital sound engines with analog filters. This hybrid design offers a unique sound palette, allowing for complex and nuanced synthesis. The MINIFREAK also includes a VST counterpart (MINIFREAK V), integrating its hybrid sound into your digital music production setup.
Advanced Modulation and Sound Transformation
The advanced modulation matrix, inspired by previous ‘FREAK’ synthesizers, offers unprecedented control over your sound. With polyphonic ADSR envelopes, customizable LFO shapes, and classic modulation options like FM and ring modulation, you can transform simple tones into complex soundscapes.
Performance-Ready with Stereo Sound
From studio to stage, the MINIFREAK provides the tools needed for dynamic and evolving performances. The 64-step sequencer allows for real-time sequence manipulation, and the three digital FX slots offer 10 studio-grade effects. The performance arpeggiator keeps your performances fresh with intuitive controls. Stereo outputs ensure full-bodied, immersive sound quality.
