Description:
MiniFreak V is an experimental virtual instrument that combines digital voices with simulated analog filters,
spontaneous modulation and sequence playback, revealing the endless boundaries between the familiar and the unheard,
order and chaos, beauty and beast. Unleash your wildest sonic creations.
Key Features and Capabilities :
Dual sound engines
Start with two sound generators, including all the modes from MiniFreak itself, and combine them as you see fit.
Combine, mix or process one engine with another with great results.
Analog Response
We’ve modeled Minifreak’s polyphonic multimode filters in extreme detail,
to truly bring the fusion of digital and analog to life in your DAW. Catch the crunch, enjoy the warmth and embrace the scream.
Express yourself
Mini Freak is a tool made for play; It would be fair if its software counterpart matches this.
Organize and automate expressions in your DAW for a smooth and expressive workflow.
Mind-blowing modulation
Unlock the Mini Freak Vs advanced panel to reveal the like-for-like modulation matrix,
allowing you to change settings and create connections between its parameters. Take advantage of any aspect of the Mini Freak V’s sound and make it your own.
Combination of Seq and Arp
Blur the lines between sequencing and arpeggiating with this intuitive,
powerful and sometimes unpredictable feature, putting playful melodies, patterns and rhythmic ideas at your fingertips.
Stereo Sound Perfection
Like its hardware counterpart, MiniFreak V features 3 FX slots with 11 FX modes to choose from,
so you can embellish your sound with any combination of rich, subtle or explosive effects in full stereo.pic
