Push Every Sound Further
MiniFreak 49 is a sound design playground. Filter FM drives analog filters into new territory. Voice Panning opens up the stereo field. Deep modulation connects the engines, and expanded hands-on controls put both engines and all three FX slots within reach.
Touch, Press, Transform
The XYZ touch matrix brings performance, modulation and navigation into one surface. Pressure becomes a third dimension for expressive control, while modulation assignment, swipeable preset browsing and visualizers make sound shaping immediate and visual.
Range You Can't Plan For
Two digital engines and 30+ oscillator modes span Virtual Analog, FM, wavetable, granular, sample-based and physical modelling synthesis. Each voice passes through an analog filter, and the refreshed preset library offers new starting points for exploration.
Room to Play
49 full-size semi-weighted keys with velocity and mono aftertouch offer expressive control. Aluminum pitch and modulation wheels, sequencing and arpeggiation expand performance possibilities, while MiniFreak V provides DAW integration.
