A synthesizer like no other, MicroFreak is a peculiar, exceptional instrument that rewards the curious musician. It blends wavetable and digital oscillators with analog filters. It features a unique poly-aftertouch flat keyboard. It adds controlled randomness to sequences. This isn’t a revolution, it’s a mutiny.
Whether you’re looking for your first, affordable hardware synth or are collector looking for original sounds and unique interface, MicroFreak is the synth you need.
This out-there little music machine features a versatile digital oscillator so you can create rare and interesting sounds with ease. Modes like Texturer, KarplusStrong, Harmonic OSC, and Superwave give adventurous musicians the chance to explore totally new, unheard possibilities. Like having dozens of synths in just one instrument, both wild-eyed newcomers and seasoned professionals will fall in love with MicroFreak’s flexible, powerful synth engine.
Small but fierce
MicroFreak packs so much in to such a compact instrument, you'll wonder how we did it. We'd love to say it was magic, but it was pure skill and passion.
Physical modelling, wavetable synthesis, virtual analog, there is nothing as complete and exciting as the MicroFreak oscillator on the market. It's hard to believe from such a small synth, but here it is, ready for you to explore. Excite your creativity and reward your curiosity with a large, diverse sound palette. MicroFreak features 11 awesome oscillators, 4 bespoke Arturia engines, and 7 modes from our friends at Mutable Instruments.
There's a little freak inside you, and this instrument will bring it out.
The best of both worlds
Even though MicroFreak has a digital oscillator at its heart, “opposites attract” as the saying goes. That’s why we’ve included a lush-sounding analog filter.
Inspired by the trailblazing 12-dB Oberheim SEM filter, you can make MicroFreak’s filter scream or whisper to taste. The filter is state-variable, and can even auto-oscillate! You can use this is any way you like, from taking the edge of the razor-sharp wavetable sounds, or automating the cutoff by modulating it with keyboard pressure or the in-built sequencer.
Wait. Did we mention that MicroFreak has a sequencer? And a mod matrix? Things are about to get seriously interesting...
Taste the spice, throw the dice
MicroFreak is packed with unique, exciting features that let you create music with a fresh perspective.
Record up to four automations, edit notes per step or use the innovative Spice and Dice sequencer functions to find happy accidents. Add randomization to create evolving, original patterns, and virtually rewire and reconfigure its signal chain and controls with the 5x7 modulation matrix. This truly is a budget-friendly synth like no other.
“That’s a funny looking keyboard”
That’s right, it is. It isn’t really even a keyboard. It’s a PCB. Super-flat, with no moving parts. Will it track lightning-fast synth solos? You bet. Better than a traditional keyboard, actually.
Will it let you be expressive? Of course, it’s not only pressure sensitive, but also offers poly-aftertouch. This means each key can control parameters in a different way depending on how much you touch.
You can also use its USB, MIDI, and CV outputs to control instruments in your DAW and modular synths. This also means that you can also use MicroFreak as a controller to experience polyphonic aftertouch with cutting edge software instruments.

Die B4000+ packt die legendäre Hammond B3 Orgel in eine ultra kompakte Box. Niemand würde eine Gitarre ohne Hals bauen, ohne geht es einfach nicht. Darum haben wir die B4000+ entwickelt, mit neun Zugriegeln: zum Anfassen, zum Schrauben, aber am wichtigsten: zum Spielen!
Basierend auf einem der besten und leistungsfähigsten digitalen Signalprozessoren auf dem Markt, dem Sharc DSP von Analog Devices, wurde der Klang und die Wärme der B3 bis ins letzte Detail liebevoll nachgebildet – mit allen elektrischen und mechanischen Unzulänglichkeiten, die das Instrument zur Legende gemacht haben.
Eben eine echte Orgel mit voluminösem Bass-Bauch, definierten Mitten und dem nötigen “Scream” in den Höhen: Der authentische Sound einer lebendigen elektromechanischen B3.
Die B4000+ simuliert alle 91 Tonewheels, wenn gewünscht, auch mit Übersprechen, und mechanischem Verschleiß. Alles natürlich voll-polyphon, mit Scanner-Vibrato, Röhrenverstärker und Hall, und – selbstverständlich – dem legendären Leslie. Alles perfekt simuliert und abgestimmt.
Nur das Gewicht des Originals haben wir etwas reduziert.
Zwei Keyboards können direkt mit den MIDI Ports der B4000+ verbunden werden, ohne einen MIDI Merger zu benötigen, um sowohl das obere als auch das untere Manual spielen zu können. Natürlich kann auch ein Pedal Manual hinzugefügt werden – damit sind alle drei Manuale mit voller Polyphonie komplett. Für externe Lautstärkekontrolle kann auch ein Pedal angeschlossen werden, und auch ein Schalter für Sustain oder Rotorgeschwindigkeit. Auch mit nur einem angeschlossenen Keyboard können zwei Manuale mit der Split Funktion gespielt werden. Per USB kann die B4000+ mit dem Sequencer des PC verbunden werden.
Ein externes analoges Signal, angeschlossen an der B4000+, kann an einem beliebigen Punkt der Effektkette eingespeist werden.
Die B4000+ ist das perfekte und kostengünstige Instrument für den legendären Orgelsound – im Taschenformat.

DFAM is the first addition to the Mother ecosystem of synthesizers and presents an expressive hands-on approach to percussive pattern creation. It requires no patching, and absolutely no experience is needed for human-beings of any age to quickly begin synthesizing new and unique rhythmic compositions.Activated by an easy-to-use analog sequencer, DFAM’s emotive sound begins with a white noise generator and two wide-range analog oscillators - effortlessly transitioning between rhythmic pulsations, resounding bass and resonant bells in an instant. DFAM’s distinctive voice is then shaped by a classic Moog Ladder filter with two selectable modes: Low Pass mode imparts impact and dimension to each sound it touches, while High Pass mode opens the door to naturally expressive strikes, spikes and clangorous accentuations.DFAM behaves much like a living organism, reacting in different ways to different individuals. 3 dedicated analog envelopes work dynamically with the sequencer to ensure that tribal toms breathe, industrial impacts evolve, and sonic chaos can be created or subdued at the turn of a knob.Each DFAM ships with a package of Moog patch cables that unlock access to the 24-point modular patchbay. Use it to create new sounds or bizarre behaviors, synchronize an unlimited number of DFAM and Mother-32 units together, or fully integrate your analog instrument into a modular Eurorack production environment.Through exploration and experimentation, the vast potential of this expressive analog instrument is realized.
Grandmother is a sonic playground that harkens back to Moog’s modular roots, where synthesis is not only about the end result, but the journey of discovery and experimentation. While capable of highly complex sounds and modulation, Grandmother's semi-modular design requires absolutely no patching, ensuring that human beings of any skill-level can easily explore and experience the joys and magic of analog synthesis. Inspired by the classic Moog modular synthesizers that came before it, Grandmother's sound engine, modulation engine and onboard spring reverb tank are completely analog, resulting in an unrestricted sonic vocabulary of immeasurable beauty and power. In addition, Grandmother also features an easy to use Arpeggiator and Sequencer for added enjoyment and programmable syncopation. Though not required, creative patching and exploration are the keys to discovering exciting new relationships between modules and to truly unlocking Grandmother’s infinite expanse of auditory inspiration. Patching can also be used to override internal connections, allowing each section to function just as an independent module would. In addition to its standalone function, Grandmother is also an ideal analog audio processor for external sound sources, and a powerful keyboard front end for expanding a Mother-32, DFAM or Eurorack modular system.
