Arturia MiniFreak - Let's take a look and have a jam session!

[@anonymous4525]

Nice jam. We're near 100k subscribers, keep up the great beats!

[@carbonvibes]

Great review, looking forward to the next video. Would love to see another video on this piece of gear. 🙌🏻 Thanks again for sharing.

[@GhostOfLorelei]

I love how you jam with these things. There are a lot of channels that will show me all the sounds and all the features and etc etc… But I want to know how it’s going to sound in the context of a mix, preferably some Boom Bap style stuff, ya know? So I’m glad you work these new synths into your style of music, reminds me of Ricky Tinez…my other favorite music KZbinr ;)

[@AccurateBeats]

Thank you! I'm sure I'll use this one in more of a boom bap context soon enough. This one might become one of my favorite synths in the studio... It's surprisingly easy to use :D Thanks for watching!

[@GhostOfLorelei]

@@AccurateBeats Honestly, and I rarely say this these days it seems, I was quite impressed with the sounds you were getting out of it, especially for the price. I have space in my setup for one more synth…I’m definitely considering this one. I’ve got a Jupiter XM, Minilogue XD and Moog Minitaur… maybe this one can help give me more access to FM style bright sounds? And more west coast, Dre style sounds for sure.

[@F_letc.h]

There’s a noticeable improvement in your videos since moving into your new space. Well done.

[@AccurateBeats]

Thank you! There are ups and downs with the new studio but I'm glad you noticed the change :D

[@TerekkiTerekki]

You go beyond just demoing new gear - I like the track building approach

[@AccurateBeats]

Thanks! I think it makes sense to make a little bit of music with something new and exciting

[@chareslamb87]

I appreciate this. Watching Loopops review is like watching a professional tutorial. Watching your video is like watching a professional show it’s uses within his setup. 🎉

[@FernandoDCDuarte]

Great to the point overview and quick jam with what seems to be a great, still sort of low cost synth from Arturia. The microfreak is such a fun device to play with, so the minifreak ia definitely in my wish list!

[@AccurateBeats]

Thank you! You're 100% right, the micro freak is a great synth and this is a way better version of it. The price isn't that bad either. I think we'll see this one in a lot of peoples setups in the coming years

[@blaykjord6171]

Just what I wanted. Hopefully I can order this soon.

[@kevdavies3445]

great demo love my microfreak cant wait to get minifreak

[@ProdByGenius]

Love watching your videos Accurate!!! I would love to see the more technical aspects of this synth like you mentioned near the end of the video! Much love!

[@AccurateBeats]

Thanks! I'm planning for this one right now :)

[@aloharay]

Your product approach is a good addition to the others on youtube that cover the item from different angles. Keep it up.

[@AccurateBeats]

Thanks man!

[@jeffryarchambeau5441]

I'm gonna have to loop your jam so I can listen to it longer. I was starting to chill for real.

[@chrisliddiard725]

The beauty of any analog synth is the ability to morph those sounds in real time, which you can't really do with a normal patch. On a DAW you might do this with a soft synth but not have that real-time emotional connection to the sound that a real analog synth allows. Its this feature of the synth which you need to sell. That said, its use as a sound designer's dream is how most will see it.

[@AccurateBeats]

Right. And the modulation matrix on the MiniFreak really helps with creating dynamic and ever changing sounds. I'm pretty new to this one but I already feel the power of these functions. I'll incorporate this synth in more jams in the future, for sure. Thanks for watching : D

[@DopamineOverload]

God I wish I could catch up with my bills. I miss owning gear. Great review, Accurate.

[@AccurateBeats]

Thanks you!

[@tblv9300]

your studio has expanded 👍🏼

[@AccurateBeats]

100%

[@marcferry]

Good video interesting this version of Minifreak.

[@DylanParisMusic]

Great video, loving those new graphics as well

[@wiggesobk]

That beat was pretty nice!

[@Taprecords]

Very nice! I love my MicroFreak!

[@MS-1]

Thanks for the vid. You really freaked the mini frank and, put that stank on it. Looking forward to you doing more vids with it as a side piece to your setup. I love my Supermicrofreakie deekie.

[@AccurateBeats]

Thanks for watching! This one will 100% be used in more sessions in the future :D Such a nice addition to the studio

[@joaehun]

Really good vibe. Would love that hear the final beat in a more finalized version or at the end of the video 😅

[@MrParapampampam]

A dope Jam!

[@davidgoode7416]

Great video, thanks

[@wendelynmusic]

I love my microfreak! darn. I don't have room for it. I have to think a lot about this. it looks pretty awesome. Wish they'd put out a desktop version with no keyboard. I don't need more keys and I am one of those who is very happy with the cpacitive keys on the Microfreak. but this looks and sounds awesome. wow

[@Jason75913]

I tried it locally, the sound and build quality is absolutely killer, but I hate the garbage keybed. My JD-Xi's keybed is more playable, and its keybed is the lowest quality rubbish around. My only good quality mini keys are on my Native Instruments M32 controller. My favorite keyboards (for their keys) are my Juno-DS61, Ultranova, and Axiom V2 61 controller.

[@buildingseas]

well played!

[@cresshead]

nice one, looks fun to work on.

[@AccurateBeats]

It really is! Thanks for the continued support Cresshead!

[@DJ_HEAVY_J]

I have to purchase this

[@wildbird78]

Did I see you use the drums inside Maschine but they came out as audio in Logic? Do you just have a quarter inch cable coming out of Maschine and into your interface to do that?

[@AccurateBeats]

Yeah, that’s what I did for this one. I just recorded the output from Maschine as audio. Works well for a quick little jam 😀

[@pikachugameplays7342]

7:11 is a Rammstein 😍😍😍

[@SpikesStudio3]

Hey bro, cant believe ive never sub'd you. Sorry bout that. You are solid. 👊

[@AccurateBeats]

Thanks man! Subscribing is always a good idea and I appreciate the support! ❤️

[@michelnassarofficial]

😍😍

[@LaymensLament]

my base template is 93 bpm, it is known this is the best bpm

[@AccurateBeats]

It is known 😂

[@ildarkinildarkin]

Some people will definitely miss MPE possibilities of MicroFreak's keyboard here...

[@wildeyestudios5]

This seems far superior than op1 field. Apart from sampling capabilities, smaller size and the tape system, what other benefits would the op1 have?

[@Jason75913]

The OPs are little workstations, Minifreak is a portable performance keyboard. No, not even remotely similar.

[@wildeyestudios5]

@@Jason75913 Well, both are electronic instruments, both have keyboards, both have synth engines, so we're back to my original question apart from the sampling capabilities, smaller size and the tape system to record and make layers, what other features would the op1 offer that make it worth

[@Jason75913]

@@wildeyestudios5 if you want a portable workstation, get a Polyend Tracker, Electribe2S, Akai MPC, Dirtywave M8, or Roland MC-101 or MC-707 if you want a portable sampling synth that you can somehow play like an instrument, there's the Minifreak, the Tracker again, some vintage Casio models, and the old Korg microsampler. Best is a good tablet + NI M32 controller. If you don't need something very small, the Juno-DS61 and Kross2 61 are your better choices, and they are killer keyboards.

[@jjhcw]

👍👍👍

[@mickl3176]

Yooo! I'm trying to get a Tshirt/sticker. Is that possible 🤔?

[@AccurateBeats]

Hi! I closed my merch store a few weeks ago and I'm looking into opening a new one as soon as I have some new designs and such. I'll let people know when it's up and running. Thanks for the support!

[@mickl3176]

@@AccurateBeats awesome 👌 I can't wait! Keep up at the hard work!

[@ildarkinildarkin]

Is there Audio over USB?

[@IISG93II]

No audio over USB. But with the MiniFreak V plugin integration, it's not really needed.

[@stackerman2800]

im so upset... I just bought a MicroFreak

[@AccurateBeats]

Ah, not the best timing but the MicroFreak still offers a lot for the money.

[@jeffryarchambeau5441]

Buy a Minifreak and connect your micro to it for three amazing voices! That's what I plan to do.

[@mewmew32]

if yr in a daw timeline its not a jam session

[@kirillstarikov]

Sounds so bad, toy for kids
