One negative omission on the single oscillator front is that of ‘Noise’, though an external audio input is still provided via the back panel, as is a sub-oscillator.īlending these waves together is a big feature that makes for more complex music. The single oscillator, forgoes independent, multiple detuned oscillators for the ability to mix similarly pitched sawtooth, square and triangle waveforms simultaneously. You’ve got one huge oscillator with sawtooth, triangle and pulse waveforms with unique modifying capabilities. It’s an old-fashioned, hands-on synth and that’s what makes the MicroBrute, and the MiniBrute, so popular with analog synth fans.įollowing on from the MiniBrute’s sound design, we can see that the MicroBrute Arturia has been given just a few minor changes but still keeps with the pure analog sound path. The Arturia MicroBrute is as easy and simple as it comes, you’ve got no menus, no presets, so that means there is little to come between you and making music. The MicroBrute – Built On Award Winning Foundations Loaded with features and keeping with a voice path that is 100% pure analog, big and aggressive sounds are fairly simple with this synth.

This synthesizer can get down and dirty, and emits power just as you would expect from a synthesizer carrying the Brute name. The downgrade in size and price doesn’t take anything away from the sound potential. The Arturia Microbrute analog synthesizer offers a smaller and compact setup with an even cheaper price-tag.


The MicroBrute is another fantastic piece of engineering from Arturia, riding on the back of the success of the MiniBrute with its affordable analog keyboard.
