Our take on the Arturia MicroFreak Hybrid Synthesizer

The MicroFreak is a compact hybrid synth built around a digital oscillator engine paired with an analog filter. Its flat, touch-sensitive keyboard with aftertouch and its mod matrix make it unusually expressive for its size. It suits players who want odd, evolving tones and hands-on patching more than piano-style playing. Against rivals like the Korg minilogue or Novation Bass Station II, it trades a traditional keybed for a wider spread of oscillator types and a capacitive surface.

What reviewers say

Owners praise the range of oscillator types and the expressive touch keyboard for the size. Many note the lack of effects and the monophonic voice as limits, and some find the touch keys take getting used to.

What people mention
  • OscillatorsPraisedOwners like the number of digital oscillator types and the range of tones they cover.
  • Touch keyboardMixedSome find the capacitive keys expressive with aftertouch, others miss the feel of real keys.
  • EffectsCriticisedReviewers note there are no built-in effects, so reverb and delay must come from elsewhere.
  • ModulationPraisedThe mod matrix and cycling envelope are called deep for a synth this size.
  • PolyphonyCriticisedBeing monophonic limits chords, which some buyers see as a real constraint.

Questions and answers

Is the MicroFreak analog or digital?
It is hybrid: digital oscillators feed an analog filter. The filter gives it warmth while the oscillators stay flexible.
Can it play chords?
No, it is monophonic, one note at a time. The paraphonic mode lets a single oscillator stack play several pitches, but not full polyphony.
Does it have built-in effects?
No. There is no reverb, delay or chorus onboard, so you add effects in your DAW or with pedals.
How does it compare with the Korg minilogue?
The minilogue is analog and polyphonic with real keys. The MicroFreak offers more oscillator types and aftertouch but is mono and has touch keys.
Does it work with a computer?
Yes. It sends and receives MIDI over USB and has MIDI DIN ports, so it works as a controller and as a sound module.
What is in the box?
The synth, a power supply and a quick start guide. A MIDI cable and case are not included.
