MicroFreak Vocoder Edition

The Arturia MicroFreak Vocoder Edition takes the hybrid Freak formula and makes it even better with a 16-band Vocoder mode, a detachable gooseneck mic and a sleek, updated look. It's the uniquely unpredictable MicroFreak, with 14 digital oscillator modes, velvety analog filters and heaps of modulation and randomization controls, supercharged with wild vocoding abilities.

The Vocoder Engine
Arturia created a 16-band mode to transform your voice in the Freakiest way possible. The vocoder engine features three waveforms: sawtooth, pulse width and noise. Timbre and Shape knobs adjust the response of the 16 frequency bands.

MicroFreak Vocoder Edition goes beyond robot vocals. 16 presets give you instant access to android translations, crystalline harmonies and vibrant formant sequences. Connect an external sound source, like a drum machine or synth, via the headphone socket for glitchy sound processing.

Step Up to the Mic
A simple, removable mic attachment lets you sprinkle your voice into the mix. A gooseneck design means quick position adjustment, with easy connection straight into the headphone socket alongside your cans. The utility menu lets you set your preferred mic gain and noise gate settings.

A New Dress Code
MicroFreak has always been out to make a statement, and the Vocoder Edition is no exception. The control panel has been given a makeover. The center strip boasts a bold Swan graphic, while a sleek white finish makes this limited-edition Freak stand out from the crowd.

The Freak Within
Behind the revamped appearance and microphone attachment is the same lovable maniac that set the synth world spinning. Sparkling digital and wavetable oscillators collide with warm analog filters. A unique poly-aftertouch PCB keyboard combines with a distinctly freaky arpeggiator and sequencer. Bathe your mix in sonic hysterics with the erratic mod matrix or the unique Spice and Dice randomizers.
