It’s armed with identical sound engines to deliver a digital doppelgänger for expanded sound design and patch development to be loaded back onto the hardware, which has impressed synthesists and production pros with its uncompromising versatility. To take this synth into another dimension, you’re also getting the MiniFreak V, a VST counterpart for use with your DAW.

Boasting over 20 playing modes across a 6-voice polyphony, the reimagined Freak modulation matrix abounds with artistic opportunity.

Its powerful, onboard FX engine, velocity-sensitive keybed, and analog filtering are engineered to inspire with responsive, dynamic polyphonic synthesis. Arturias Mini V utilizes the TAE (True Analog Emulation) engine to deliver growling basses, soaring leads, and everything else in-between. The MiniFreak throws down the gauntlet with a 37-key hybrid design that utilizes a dual-oscillator 2-engine architecture to elicit dynamic, undulating sonics with multiple lanes of modulation. Through merging historical circuitry designs with cutting-edge software technologies, you get the amazingly warm and gooey sound of a classic analog synth, plus the preset management, automation, and extensive sound-shaping only a plug-in can provide. Sound designers at Arturia are no strangers to meticulously and methodically deconstructing the elements of aural intrigue that make our favorite synths tick. Arturia's Mini V takes their spot-on software model of a legendary analog synthesizer to the next level of sophistication.
