Katsunori UJIIE demos the Arturia MicroBrute!

Katsunori UJIIE, from Music Track JP, without a doubt is my favorite demo presenter on youtube. I have seriously considered learning Japanese just so I can know what he's saying.... Check it:

 

Microbrute!

 

As if the Minibrute wasn't small enough, Arturia today announced the Microbrute Analog Synthesizer:

"Packed with mixable waveforms, a new sub oscillator design, the famous Steiner-Parker multimode filter, super fast envelope, syncable LFO and the new step sequencer, not to mention the patchable mod matrix the MicroBrute is a landmark new synth at an incredible price."

The Microbrute is on pre-sale at Sweetwater for $299 USD, shipping begins in November! Speaking of which, check out Sweetwater's Director of Product Optimization Daniel Fisher get down with the new beastie:

 

 

Minibrute vs Harvestman

Ted James tries hooking up the Arturia Minibrute to his fantastic looking modular set-up:

"An example of the Arturia MiniBrute controlling the modular by way of the arpeggiator's control voltages. Modules by The Harvestman. All audio is from the modular. Signal chain is Piston Honda - Kuzminorgel - Bionic Lester - Double Andore - Tyme Sefari - Polivoks VCF - Evin 209 - Stilton Adapter direct to Mackie Onyx 820i."

Jacobo Abreo rocking two Minibrutes!

I want this dude's set-up:

MiniBrute!

You have probably no doubt by now heard of the new Arturia MiniBrute that has making a splash today at NAMM. An all analog monophonic synthesizer that Sweetwater has listed for pre-sale at the low price of $499 USD! This synth really looks like a game changer to me and I expect it to be the modern day replacement to the microKorg that you saw every hip indie band use in the early 00s. Just in case you've been in the dark here's the downlow:
