The MicroBrute is Arturia's new portable and compact analog synthesizer. With its all-analog signal path and innovative new features, the MicroBrute represents the new standard in portable hardware synthesizers, following in the footsteps of its 'big brother' MiniBrute.
A new all-analog oscillator with multiple waveforms, the classic filter Steiner-Parker multi-mode, the modulation matrix and the brand new step sequencer, all in a price range never even touched by an analog synthesizer. Add to this all the major functions inherited from its predecessor Mini Brute and connections MIDI, USB, CV / GATE complete.
The MicroBrute also uses the classic Steiner-Parker filter, specially revised by Nyle Steiner; in all probability the best multi-mode filter design around, providing analog warmth and a rough, aggressive sound.
Small but powerful, robust yet affordable, 100% analog but built by a company famous for its digital instruments ... MicroBrute was designed for the analog purists, and contains an incredibly wide range of warm and powerful sounds at the same time. interior of a portable design. The Brute Factor, also inherited from the MiniBrute, allows to provide various degrees of saturation and to sculpt the sound in an effective and innovative way.
The synth integrates a LFO complete and a standard envelope ADSR. The routing of these modulation sources is configured in the brand new AGAINST THE MATRIX. The modulation matrix allows total openness to the outside world by being able to control other modules and synthesizers. No other synthesizer in this price range allows this kind of flexibility.
In a world dominated by hardware machines with limited controls that force you to navigate for hours inside tiny LCD screens, the MicroBrute returns to entertain by offering a tactile and immediate approach to sound synthesis.
