MiniFreak V is a like-for-like software emulation of its hardware polysynth counterpart, combining identical digital engines with perfectly modeled analog filters, plus a plethora of wildly creative modulation, sequencing, and expression controls - your Freak in the box.

I love this Synth. It's the first time all the parameters made complete sense, and are easy to use to get a nice custom sound with out much effort.

[hirudo]

Is there any chance of getting more representative icons instead of the flasks? *cough* see Syntakt *cough*

[SamplePuzzles]

The Mini Freak is such a good sounding, versatile and compact synth AND it can replace some of my effect pedals... Very cool!

[maxime]

Is it possible to use the audio input as a sidechain? (to create a pump/duck effect, if we add a compressor effect to our sound who is triggered by the audio in, like a drum kick) It would be awesome!

[BenStiller-pi]

sorry maybe dumb question. is this audio input stereo?

[rot_studios]

I can't wait to put my 70's Elka organ through this (aside from playing the 'freak of course haha).

[apricotdog]

Is there a version of this tutorial for the micro please? I haven't found one that's useful yet! Thanks!

[mb]

Unfortunately there's very little detail on what kind of audio input I should use and how to connect various devices.

[mjaa]

Hello at 05:19 after selecting Comb Filter, can you still modify OSC2 Cutoff, Gate and Damping Knobs? Thanks.

[patchbaycowboy]

Does the v include the vocoder like the microfreak?

[volsteh]

Give us just an audio through so we can jam with other hardware without needing to buy a mixer

[sjakelien]

I can't get it to work in Logic. My setup: I have a channel with audio. I send it to a bus, pre-fader. That bus is the Side Chain to the MiniFreak V plug-in. I have set the volume of the audio to zero, so I cannot hear the original signal. Also, I have set the buses output to none. When I hit play, I can see the signal coming in to my bus. As expected, I don't hear anything. In the MiniFreak V plug-in, I have selected the default Template, and set the first oscillator to 'Audio In'. While Logic is looping the audio, and the signal visibly is coming into the bus that I chose as a side chain, I play a note on the the MiniFreak. At that point, I would expect to hear the incoming signal. But I hear nothing. The volume of Oscillator is all the way up.

[ChristianoRodríguez-hk]

My mini freak have not available option audio in.Why?

[robvbeats]

She's amazing! I'll buy one>> 🤖

Is this audio coming from a drum machine? That isn't explained in the video. Im a total noob when it comes to this.

[bazrin]

Omg I forgot you can't just feed the audio through its own separate channel. It's a shame you need to take a up an oscillator slot which destroys any portability for adding external gear with the Minifreak because now you need a mixer. Shame

[randommcranderson]

Does the plugin offer the ability to process external audio without the hardware?

[Justme-xgrj]

is an audio interface required for this function?

[vladimirivanov]

Absolutely bad...I in your display you have audio in....I can....go back and show me please, because I start from the middle!

[RCZ-rgjp]

Completely lacking video. No setup info at all: I guess the keyboard is triggering.... something generating the loop that's getting back in to the audio input? Is it an init patch? Goodness this is useless; just read the manual.
