Polyphonic Hybrid Keyboard MiniFreak is a 6-voice polyphonic hybrid keyboard that fuses two digital sound engines with analogue filters, outside-the-box sequencing, and instant-access modulation in a playful, curious, and sometimes unpredictable way. MiniFreak encourages users to escape the ordinary and explore the unconventional with a 37-note velocity-sensitive keybed with aftertouch, weave intricate evolving performances with multiple modulation lanes, and discover endless sweet spots with a built-in digital FX engine - a wildly creative experience.

Impressive Features!
MiniFreak V MiniFreak comes with a dedicated VST counterpart, letting users totally integrate its unique hybrid sound into their DAW productions and vice versa. Using identical sound engines and architecture, it offers a like-for-like virtual experience of the synth itself, at no extra cost.
Unprecedented hybrid polyphonyWith over 20 modes to choose from including Virtual Analogue, FM, and Additive, the interplay between MiniFreak's two oscillators can result in truly unique compound sonic behavior. With 6-voice polyphony, analogue filters, and the ability to process engine 1 through engine 2, MiniFreak puts premium polyphonic synthesis exploration into a compact & tactile instrument that’s as addictive as it is powerful.
Customizable & experimental sound design Embellishing the popular Freak modulation matrix, MiniFreak gives users even more control over shaping, transforming, and evolving their sound, with features like polyphonic ADSR envelopes, customizable multi-segment LFO shapes, FM & Ring Modulation, and the familiar Spice & Dice randomization.
Mix-ready
stereo soundMiniFreak comes with stereo outputs and 3 digital FX slots with 10 FX types to choose from. From
stereo-enhancing chorus, to surgical 3-band EQ, to gritty 6-mode distortion, users will have
everything they need to push their sound over the edge while keeping it mix-ready.
Expression,
meet chaosDespite its penchant for wild & exploratory sound design, MiniFreak is also built as a responsive
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 and modulation
lanes put playfulness and sonic momentum immediately at users’ fingertips.
