THANK YOU !!! I was waiting for granular engines.

Now I have no reason left to not get one minifreak 🙌

[pbadach]

Mindblowing. Just today updated my minifreak and in few minutes i have started recording in my DAW.
Couldnt stop end up with 10 awesome samples. Honestly you cannot get beter synth in this price. Great job Arturia.

It's videos like these that make me wonder if I should just go get a minifreak

[shieldeater]

pysched, I just got my minifreak a couple weeks ago and the timing is perfect

The way you guys implemented the controls for Sample OSC allow for some pretty Cool seq with mods 👍 Lovin' the update! Also some cool 90's pads/choirs with the Granular OSC, 2nd OSC and FX. Powerful tool in this little body!

Vocoder on the next one, pleaseee, but I’m excited with that one, got mine this month! 😂❤

[fodali]

Thank you very much Arturia for this gift, Merry Christmas 👍🏻

Man, this update finally let's this synth live up to its namesake!!! The unique take on granular synthesis is indeed quite freaky!!! It's like having the ability to make those weirdo patches in Bitwig, but with a 3rd party plugin!

Modulate-able Pan for oscillators please, that many oscillator engines, deserve more option for stereo field than static chorus, pan delay and unison, I always waste one mod destination; LFOx-> dry/wet to make the stereo field less boring, thank you for supporting this great synth❤

[cfcwhite]

Wooow! Thank you guys! This is a true Christmas gift.
But it better work on Sequoia cause I almost broke my computer in anger migrating my new MiniFreak to 2.0. Turned out I just had to plug it to another USB port. :)

Arturia! I love this synth! I was wondering, are there any tutorials on how to create alternative note scales on minifreak (like a 31 note equal temperament)? Or other microtonal scales?

[ktreier]

Is Minifreak V going to be updated. I assume so?

[hansmayer]

Will the update also be released for the Micro Freak?

[spenzakwsx]

I was wondering when it will be possible to load custom samples into the MiniFreak’s granular engine. You mentioned shortly after the last update that an update enabling this would be released soon—maybe I missed it. What’s the status on that? Thanks a lot (big fan of Arturia).

@Arturia

Problably asked thousand times I guess, but are there future plans to add Vocoder functionality like the microfreak?

[Xanaduum]

We need an update where we can play the arpeggiator within the sequencer and not just record a static arpeggio into it seperately. 🙏

[cat-boi]

Was super excited to try this out….

Since updating my screen has stopped working, have tried to reinstall many times on various pc’s and macs with different cables but the screen just won’t come on, have contacted support but still unresolved

Anyone had this and know a fix?

[TeslaDanser]

When is the update for sampling like it's little brother?

[vincentedwardsdesign]

I've tried to do this update but MiniFreak V just crashes. MacBook Pro M1 Max and OS 14.5... When I sync my MiniFreak to MiniFreak V it shows the latest version of firmware 2 when I click the firmware button. It shows that 3.0 exists but says I'm up to date. I downloaded 3.0 from your website and tried 'update from file' but that just crashes MiniFreak V. No luck ... any suggestions?

Why in the world would you not give us the option to import our own samples? The Microfreak can. I sold my Microfreak because y'all said we would get sample engines NOT ROMPLER ENGINES!
