MiniBrute V’s factory library has been designed by esteemed synthesists and analog pros alike, staying faithful to the original while pushing the envelope of what’s possible - from high voltage basses and leads to soaring pads and metallic effects.

EMBODYING AN ANALOG REVIVAL

With the aim of bringing back the fun and immediate hands-on experience of synthesis - MiniBrute arrived. Released in 2012, when analog innovation was in a lull, MiniBrute set out to reinvigorate and revolutionize the scene with its small, affordable analog architecture that could be used by beginners and pros alike.

Co-designed and engineered by craftsman synth legend Yves Usson, MiniBrute included unique hardware and features that were previously only available on more expensive units and modular designs, such as the classic Steiner-Parker filter and metalizer.

ORIGINAL CONTROLS BEAUTIFULLY REALIZED

Retaining the beloved layout of the original, MiniBrute V offers new ways to interact with its roaring sound, providing a familiar experience while adding powerful new features. The result? A synth that covers sizable sonic ground, with easy-access sound design and extensive FX options.

• Pure VCO power: Mix up to 4 different waveshapes and a sub-oscillator for added punch, alongside signal enhancers such as the Ultrasaw and Metalizer
• Steiner-Parker: Known for its bold, aggressive sound, the Steiner-Parker filter maintains a relatively strong signal even at high resonance settings allowing for a wide tonal range
• Brute factor: Go from smooth and gentle distortion to barely controllable, crazy feedback, with this iconic signal overdrive
• Envelope sliders: Harking back to classic synth models from the 1970s and 1980s, MiniBrute’s envelope sliders have been faithfully recreated - precise and easy to use as ever
• Adjustable polyphony: Standing out among its single-VCO counterparts, MiniBrute V takes the monosynth power and ups the ante with 8-voices to play with - for lush chords and harmonics
• Unison: Another new feature not available in hardware is Unison, engage to create huge mono sounds and add a detune effect

THE EFFECTS PANEL

Take the sound of MiniBrute in an utterly new direction or add subtle spatialization with a fully featured effects panel - ensuring that MiniBrute V not only replicates but transcends its hardware roots. Mold, modulate and shape the MiniBrute V sound with 4 effects slots and up to 17 powerful effects to choose from - from expansive reverb, to precise EQ and impactful chorus.
