The Arturia Microfreak Vocoder Edition Is Back

November 23, 2021 2 min read

Arturia Microfreak Vocoder Edition

One of Arturia's most successful special editions is back and better than ever. With its slick aesthetic and its detachable gooseneck mic, MicroFreak Vocoder Edition has been an outstanding success worldwide.

Arturia is bringing this wonderful special edition back to the market together with a brand new firmware update. This wavetable-oriented update supercharges this loveable desktop hybrid with new sounds and features to help musicians find their own voice! 

NEW IN FIRMWARE V4

– New User Wavetable oscillator
Users can load their own wavetables in MicroFreak using the MIDI Control Center application. Add some harshness to these waveforms using the engine Bit Crusher!

– New Wavetables
MIDI Control Center will come loaded with wavetables that musicians can pick and load into their MicroFreak.

– Sequencer plays Unison and Chord
The Chord and Unison are now applied to sequences (previously they would only apply to notes that were played with the keys on top of the sequence).

– Wave / Timbre / Shape encoder fast acceleration
A Utility setting allows for a faster scan of those three parameters. Use Shift + those encoders for fine parameter tweaks
