It’s a robust midrange offering with a reasonably low $599 price. The MiniFreak has double the oscillators, six voices instead of four, built-in effects and a more traditional keyboard.
The little digital weirdo has proven so successful that Arturia decided to make an even more powerful synth, built on the same core. Sure, it needs the assistance of external effects to really shine and its touchplate keyboard is a bit controversial, but there’s no denying it offers a lot for just $349. It has over a dozen different synth engines, an analog multimode filter, a mod matrix for putting together complex patches, plus it’s routinely updated with new features.
Unless you absolutely have your heart set on an analog instrument, I think it offers the most versatility and the best bang for your buck. When people ask what their first hardware synth should be, I often recommend Arturia’s MicroFreak.
