Arturia MiniFreak 49, 49-key hybrid synthesizer

The Arturia MiniFreak 49 is a versatile hybrid synthesizer with 49 semi-weighted keys, velocity sensitivity and aftertouch. With 6-voice polyphony, two digital sound engines and more than 30 oscillator modes, you can easily create your own sounds. From warm analog tones and deep basses to modern leads, pads and complex digital effects. Each voice has its own analog filter, allowing you to precisely shape the sound. Thanks to the extensive controls and the aluminum pitch bend and modulation wheels, you have direct control over your sound while playing.

The MiniFreak 49 features a pressure-sensitive XYZ touch matrix with which you can control multiple parameters simultaneously and change sounds in real time. With the built-in 64-step sequencer, arpeggiator and three effect slots with 13 algorithms each, you can easily create complete musical patterns. The synthesizer also offers extensive connectivity options, including MIDI, USB-C, audio input and stereo outputs. With the included MiniFreak V software, you can also use the same synthesizer within your favorite DAW. This makes the Arturia MiniFreak 49 suitable for both live performances and studio music production.
