Import your own material, let MiniFreak handle the conversion, and shape it instantly with MiniFreak’s engines — in software and on hardware.
MiniFreak is a polyphonic hybrid keyboard that unites dual digital sound engines with analog filters, playful modulation, instinctive sequencing, and rich stereo effects for sounds that are immediately curious, beautiful, and chaotic in equal measure.
Two engines, many voices
A dynamic selection of sounds that contrast, collide, and conspire to create.
Classic sinewave to fearsome supersaw bass, pizzicato-plucked strings to dense stacked chords. MiniFreak’s engines pack a punch - or 22, to be precise. From our own algorithms to unique modes designed by modular synth wizards.
Analog Filters
Magic happens where digital and analog meet.
MiniFreak embraces the crisp, glassy, sometimes aggressive sound of digital oscillators. But this machine isn’t taking sides; enjoy the best of both worlds with the warm, responsive, authentic sound of polyphonic analog filters. Tame harshness, create movement, and make subtractive synthesis work for you.
Polyphonic
Every note you play will be shaped and colored individually thanks to analog filters for every voice, ensuring that each melody, chord, or percussive hit is as warm and vivid as the last.
Modulation
Sweep a filter yourself, crush or widen its envelope - but MiniFreak has other ideas. Send your analog filters into an modulation frenzy or keep it moving in-line with your sequencer for filtering that goes further.
3 modes
Balance MiniFreak’s sound to sit perfectly in your mix, or target specific frequency ranges to unlock unique harmonics with low-pass, band-pass, and high-pass states.
Augment, transform, and polish whatever combination of engines you’ve chosen with 3 stereo FX engines. From space-enhancers, to textural algorithms, to outright sonic destruction, these FX are ready to be tweaked & modulated to your heart’s content.
Spontaneous sequencing
Blur the lines between sequencing and arpeggiation with wild results.
When you need quick step-sequencing, instant note repetition, or rhythmic consistency, MiniFreak will answer the call. But if you want to go a step further - to interact with your melodies or impulsively change direction - this flexible sequencer & arpeggiator is armed to the teeth with creative tricks.
Arp controls
Change single-note repetitions into chord stabs, switch octaves in seconds, and introduce totally random notes with the Mutate button for arpeggios that leave an impression.
Spice & Dice
A familiar feature for Freak fans, Spice & Dice alters various parameters, including pitch, gate, and more, so you can take your hands off the wheel and savor some inspiration in the unexpected.
Modulation lanes
Lock in custom changes to your filters, envelopes, FX, and beyond using 4 modulation lanes, ensuring that it’s not just your notes that repeat in perfect sync - it’s your whole sound too.
Modulation galore
Borderline-softsynth flexibility with single-knob control.
There’s nothing wrong with static sounds, but MiniFreak embodies the belief that there’s joy to be found in movement and change. Make instant connections between MiniFreak’s plethora of modulation sources, common destinations like filter and oscillator pitch, and assignable destinations, and craft your own ever-changing, ever-surprising, and ever-inspiring sounds.
