MiniFreak Vocoder

MiniFreak Vocoder drops Arturia’s fearless hybrid synth into a new vocal dimension. It keeps the 6-voice architecture, dual digital engines, and analog filter of the original, then adds a detachable gooseneck microphone and a 16-band vocoder engine with multiple FX options.

Talkbox growls, android choirs, or spectral pads — twist them further with the sequencer, modulation matrix, and triple-slot effects for instant, mix-ready insanity.

16-Band Vocoder

Hook up the detachable mic or any external source and channel it through a classic 16-band speech synthesis engine. Blend the processed voice with MiniFreak’s oscillators, freeze formants for metallic drones, or drive talkbox growls through the onboard effects slots.

Hybrid Polysynth Power

MiniFreak’s twin digital sound engines feature over 30 modes and can be used individually, stacked, or configured to process each other’s output for unique compound sonic behavior.

Its 6 digital voices then collide with polyphonic analog filters, balancing digital crispness with a rich analog response.

Customizable & Experimental Sound Design

MiniFreak’s expanded modulation matrix gives users even more control over shaping, transforming, and evolving their sound.

• Polyphonic ADSR envelopes
• Customizable multi-segment LFO shapes
• FM and Ring Modulation
• Spice & Dice randomization

Mix-Ready Stereo Sound

With stereo outputs and three digital FX slots featuring over 10 FX types, users have everything needed to push their sound over the edge while keeping it mix-ready.

• Stereo-enhancing chorus
• Surgical 3-band EQ
• Gritty distortion

Expression, Meet Chaos

Despite its penchant for wild and exploratory sound design, MiniFreak is an instrument of expression.

Its velocity-sensitive 37-note keybed with aftertouch and spontaneous Seq/Arp functionality makes it a dream to perform with, while its randomization features put playfulness first.

MiniFreak V

MiniFreak comes with a dedicated VST counterpart, allowing users to fully integrate its unique hybrid sound and presets into their DAW productions and vice versa.

Using identical sound engines and architecture, it offers a mirrored virtual experience of the hardware synth itself at no extra cost.
