A synthesizer like no other, MicroFreak is a peculiar, exceptional instrument that rewards the curious musician. It blends wavetable and digital oscillators with analog filters. It features a unique poly-aftertouch flat keyboard. It adds controlled randomness to sequences. This isn’t a revolution, it’s a mutiny. This out-there little music machine features a versatile digital oscillator so you can create rare and interesting sounds with ease. Modes like Texturer, KarplusStrong, Harmonic OSC, and Superwave give adventurous musicians the chance to explore totally new, unheard possibilities. Like having dozens of synths in just one instrument, both wild-eyed newcomers and seasoned professionals will fall in love with MicroFreak’s flexible, powerful synth engine. Physical modelling, wavetable synthesis, virtual analog, there is nothing as complete and exciting as the MicroFreak oscillator on the market. It's hard to believe from such a small synth, but here it is, ready for you to explore. Excite your creativity and reward your curiosity with a large, diverse sound palette. MicroFreak features 11 awesome oscillators, 4 bespoke Arturia engines, and 7 modes from our friends at Mutable Instruments. Inspired by the trailblazing 12-dB Oberheim SEM filter, you can make MicroFreak’s filter scream or whisper to taste. The filter is state-variable, and can even auto-oscillate! You can use this is any way you like, from taking the edge of the razor-sharp wavetable sounds, or automating the cutoff by modulating it with keyboard pressure or the in-built sequencer. Record up to four automations, edit notes per step or use the innovative Spice and Dice sequencer functions to find happy accidents. Add randomization to create evolving, original patterns, and virtually rewire and reconfigure its signal chain and controls with the 5x7 modulation matrix.

 So these are the basic super wave shapes and then we've actually got their own modulation in D tune. So this is the amount of detuning and then the volume [, Music, ] right and the different shapes [ Music ] by the way, while we're here on this super soft, let's take a listen to the filter, [ Music, ] more on the filter later the next Engine is the wavetable engine, so there are a few different wave tables here and you can obviously the position of table [ Music ] war between the different, yes, you've got a porous effect, [ Music ] now, rather than me cycling through these wave tables. Let'S get an LFO to do it for us I'll, take this to timbre as well, then just [ Music, ], the family, [, Music, ], so really nice sound and I'm not applying any effective. You can imagine this with a reverb on time

 Alright, so we can have in this case positive modulation rise or attack, [, Music, ] and we can add, sustain as well. So now it's a four-stage on [, Music ]. We need to turn on the vclt release, and the nifty thing about this envelope is that you have an amount control here as well. So you don't need to dive into the mod matrix to bring this field and take it out now, aside from being a regular envelope, the cycling envelope can obviously also cycle in this case

 The motion sequence of parameter - all you need to do is while the sequence is plan, hit record and then turn the knob and we've now created a motion sequence. You can see this little LED lit up to indicate that one of the four lanes is taken. That can take another parameter, a motion sequence, that's let's say resonance so now. We'Re motion sequencing two parameters in two of the four of our games

 So I'll take this spot here. [, Music, ] we've got gentle or not jump over Bronto. Now I want that vibrato to either start or stop or evolve as the sound moves forward. They could take a mod matrix lot, let's say a sign number one and then assign that to the LFO

Arturia MicroFreak Review and Tutorial: Everything you need to know, including all 12 sound engines

It has a nice beefy sound, but still has that bounce that makes it great for dance tracks.  The sequencer is one of its high points, as well as the fact that it has midi in/out, audio in/ out, and  can run off of batteries (making it one of the best portable synths out there).

If you're a bass player, it's E to E key bed range is very appreciated, and the slim keys are actually pretty nice.  (Those are not mini keys as these keys are the normal length, just skinnier)

I'm going to buy a Korg monologue for my birthday and I want to know your advices for someone who's just starting and doesn't know anything about music.

<div class="md"><p>I&#39;m going to buy a Korg monologue for my birthday and I want to know your advices for someone who&#39;s just starting and doesn&#39;t know anything about music.</p>
</div>

Hi everyone, what's the best advice you can give to someone who's gonna start in this wonderful world with a Korg monologue.

 The micro freak nails, the interface to the t, striking a great balance between ease of use and complexity, hands-on control and a clever layout on the available front panel real estate programming new sounds is easy and it encourages experimentation and it's just plain good old fun. The mod matrix makes broughting a breeze, and newcomers to synthesizers will also benefit from it that they can see how their favorite presets are set up, and you can just start taking notes from them when you start diving in. So it's basically like a little tutorial in the box. It'S also great for live performance as you get easy access to its most important parameters, as well as the benefit from the eccentric little keyboard and its polyphonic aftertouch number three immutable instrument as that for a magic trick

 Please consider using the affiliate links to the cool dudes over in perfect circuit down below when you use that link. I get a small commission with no extra cost to you and it helps me keep these synths on as always. Thank you so much for watching. I hope you found this video useful, or at least entertaining have a great week i'll see you in the next one

 It has a mod matrix that reminds you a lot of a pocket version of a matrix or poly boot and has a touch capacitive keyboard that you will either love or hate to death. It has a very interesting take on sequencers and arpeggiators and also provides you four lanes of motion sequencing to boot. So that's pretty much the micro freak on paper, but underneath the spec sheet. What'S really so great about it, let me tell you number one: is the price there's really no two ways about it? If there was ever an underpriced synth, this is it

 So that's pretty much the micro freak on paper, but underneath the spec sheet. What'S really so great about it, let me tell you number one: is the price there's really no two ways about it? If there was ever an underpriced synth, this is it. I can't really think of any other hardware synth on the market right now that offers you so much versatility and sound design, quality and performance control in this price bracket. If you go even further and look for it in the used market, you're bound to find it even cheaper and by then it's really a no-brainer

5 Reasons Microfreak Might Be Arturia’s Greatest Synth Yet

 I think the thing that it's got on offer, as I say, is just a different flavor of sand. I mean it's not like many other things I can think of, but it's part of this old new movement of more digitally based and hybrid /, analog mono /. Para phonics ins and I think it holds itself up. Well I mean the price is about 299 UK pounds, other countries

 So there's a few interesting things going on. Additionally, there's a 35-point modulation matrix here, and this is a something that you just kind of dial in press and then hit the amount of modulation and if you can see there, so it gives you this sort of each of these can be active. So it's not like one on each row: every single one can be active and they're also assignable ones here, say press and then you turn any knob on the control panel and that will be assigned and that can also be assigned today. Then you can create circular routing, so there's some interesting concepts here and it's it's this area of kind of hybrid

 [ Music ] see what that sounds like [, Music ], it's a little too voice to operate. That'S quite nice! So now I'm going to do is start recording some automation, so [, Music ]. So that's just recorded that little parameter tweet quite minor. Let'S try another one: [ Music ], it's another lane! That'S come up here and I'll do another bit of recording, don't like that one

 So that's just recorded that little parameter tweet quite minor. Let'S try another one: [ Music ], it's another lane! That'S come up here and I'll do another bit of recording, don't like that one. So I can press slot three and clear. So now I didn't have another go at that! That'S better and then let's try another okay, [ Music, ], [ Applause, ], [, Music, ]

Sonic LAB - Arturia MicroFreak Hybrid Synthesizer Review

 So, after watching tons of Youtube videos, I decided on the Arturia Microfreak...and I'm glad I did! It has a LOT of sound design potential, and using the Mod Matrix is a joy

.and I'm glad I did! It has a LOT of sound design potential, and using the Mod Matrix is a joy. The arp and sequencer are very fun and flexible, and the whole design seems catered to evolving and expressive sounds. The capacitance keyboard is odd, but just adds to the quirky expressiveness of the instrument

Does what my other synths can't!

 in fact, the entire unit has a much cheaper feel than the brute series. I would have paid another $100 to have it with a higher build quality.  Now on to the good: the sounds are incredible. So much better than the Korg mini/monologue

 The korg has this beat in that regard, but for sound quality, and fantastic presets, this wins.

  I love this synth. I wish they had charged a little more and made it more substantial. The korg has this beat in that regard, but for sound quality, and fantastic presets, this wins.

Great- could be better

 You could do chords on it, but you could never do these like evolving pads that i've shown you here today. So this is really a dream come true. I think this is by far the best synth that arturia has ever made ever produced. It sounds really nice

 We have the little noise generator here and we can also set the noise color. So something i like to do is set up a mod here for the mod envelope here and we hit number five here. Noise level - and we use the mod envelope here to increase the level of the noise [ Music ]. So the noise comes in after a little while using the mod envelope that i have set up here on the matrix

 The first thing that of course, jumps out at you is this here: it's the morphe that you use to control your sound in different dimensions. It'S a 3d controller. You could say then, there's of course, the ribbon controller, as well as the keyboard, which is velocity and after touch sensitive, you have the pigeon mod wheels. You also have expression, pedals and sustain pedal inputs on the back [ Music, ], [ Applause, ], and it's of course, possible to use the mod matrix in order to route, for example, the morphe, the 3d controller here or the ribbon here, for example, to different destinations And use it to control, say lfo rates cut off whatever your heart desires, [, Music, ], basically [, Music, ], three in terms of effects they're all digital, so we have a chorus

 I don't know what it will sound like, but as you can see, we're just changing it here for for b now not to forget. We also have the ribbon controller here that we can use and set up so and yeah. We can also use this little pad here this little morphe. We could set up the wheel here to do something using the mod matrix, but let's do the ribbon here

ARTURIA POLYBRUTE — the BEST Arturia synthesizer yet!

 It feels like magic, [, Music ]. Let'S create a really nice sounding monophonic lead patch from scratch: [, Music, ], unison, there's a master cut off, which does exactly what it says. It kind of controls, the cutoff of both filters. However, we can independently wrangle in our filter, sound with either one of these and then adjust that with the overall macro like so

 I actually have two patches in one patch and i'm now going to twist the morph key and go to patch b, which obviously sounds a lot different than patch a. So let's hear this for a second and let's just modify it to something different, [, Music, ]. So this is the b version of the patch [ Laughter, ], [, Music ]. This little piece of wood on the side of the synthesizer here is called the morphe and it is a highly expressive block of wood

 Let'S add a little bit of phaser [, Music, ] and, let's add some reverb. Of course, there's some really nice reverb algorithms. In this synthesizer there are different reverb algorithms like plate and then a whole bunch of alternate ones, bright, plate, room dreamy which is kind of a shimmer [ Music ], and my favorite, i think, is delayed plate this one. Just sounds incredibly epic [ Applause, ], [, Music, ], [ Applause, ], [, Music, ], [, Music, ]

 Something that arturia is getting really good at doing is creating synthesizers that feel like instruments rather than pieces of pro audio gear, and i feel like this is the magnum opus. Of that i want to be completely transparent. I was in communication with arturia regarding the synthesizer before it was finished, not as an influencer but as a consultant, and it turned out way better than i could have ever imagined. But you should know that i am not paid a dime to make this video

POLYBRUTE | My Favorite Synth Yet

I had a Peak for a bit and I don't think there's much about it you can't get ITB, what I liked the most about it was the analog drive and distortion which I'm guessing you won't need much off making ambient music

I mainly use software synths like Omnisphere, Diva, Zebra, etc, as well as the amazing Virus TI2, with Ableton Live and Push 2. I’d like to add a few analog modules to my set up. Out of the OB-6 desktop and the PEAK, which do you think would fit with current setup for space ambient music?

</div>

OB-6 or PEAK for ambient?

 You know that in some ways, they're almost too cool for for for polywork, because they sound so good as a model. In fact, if i play uh this sound here uh, i think i've got uh in this bank. Uh amy trip sweet spot, this sweet spot bass. I played it a little bit in the in my kind of brief overview video the base on this is astounding, [, Music, ] and the morph takes us into this other sound, which is a sort of attack, [ Music ]

 It'S a great synth. I can't you know pretend otherwise it's also fairly uncompromising. You know this thing is not cheap. I know it doesn't pretend to be or a try to be cheap

 The tuning on these guys is variable. We can set them to whatever we want, and this is one cool thing that i also didn't really realize where i don't know, if you can see that, but there's a little tiny, yellow circle on certain parameters on the front panel. So if you actually press settings and twist, we can set these extra settings so just run that again settings and twist and we get the sort of the sub parameters for that particular section. So this at the moment is just set to seven semitones

 This bits capacitive. You know, that's your linear travel, but you can move this around to give you three axis of modulation from this, and this is actually linked to uh. The superpower, i suppose that this synthesizer has, which is the morphing. The morphing is the ability to well i'll show you
