Overview

Looks tiny, sounds massive.

MicroBrute SE synthesizer is a limited edition of a pure analog sonic powerhouse . Small in size but loaded with features. The MicroBrute SE is new but carries the award-winning heritage of its big brother, the MiniBrute. The MicroBrute SE was designed to be small but still retain an amazing sound quality. With a 100% pure analog voice path and advanced interconnectability via MIDI, USB, CV/ GATE, this machine is a true powerhouse synthesizer that takes your sound to a new level.

If you'e new to synths, you'e looking at one of the easiest to use and most unique sounding synthesizers we think money can buy. And if you'e a synth veteran, we think it won™t have escaped your attention that MicroBrute SE is also a seriously capable semi-modular sequence-able beast. Wait till you hear how it sounds.

No presets, no menus, nothing to get between you and the ability to sculpt your sound live. Not only does MicroBrute SE give you the means to create, perform and be completely original every time you power up, it does it with astounding sound quality.

A synthesizer is a musical instrument that is meant to be played. However, playing a synthesizer is more than just playing some notes on a keyboard and recalling someone else' presets. If that was the goal you could be looking at accordions or going to a department store to buy your keyboard (along with socks, milk and toilet paper)¦but you aren™t because you are more creative than that.

No presets, no menus, nothing to get between you and the ability to sculpt your sound live. Not only does MicroBrute SE give you the means to create, perform and be completely original every time you power up, it does so with astounding sound quality.
