Two More Microfreak Modulation Ideas!

[@rockhead11]

Superwave mode modulating the Unison was some crazy FAT synthesizer goodness. Now to AutoSample my MicroFreak onto my MPC One. Thanks for the cool new patches.

[@FreeBeat]

I need to do that too! Have fun :)

The Arturia MicroFreak is an incredibly feature rich and perfect synth, full stop. Whether it's your first or twenty fifth synth doesn't matter, it's such a great instrument.

[@FreeBeat]

Absolutely!

Very interesting and informative video! The sonic possibilities of the Microfreak seem truly endless, there is always something new to discover.

[@FreeBeat]

It really is an incredible piece of gear. Thanks for watching!

[@ermagerd8306]

Excellent video and ideas. I'd love to see more videos with the Microfreak.

[@FreeBeat]

Thank you! I've definitely got some more on the way :)

[@joeblow593]

That unison freaking was awesome. Think the robots meltdown.

[@FreeBeat]

Thanks for watching!

Id be curious to see a full track from the MPC and the Microfreak :D If you have seen andrehuangs 4producers 1 synth where they used the microfreak, it really gave some nice things ! Id dig you giving it a shot :D

[@FreeBeat]

Oh yeah I love that video haha. I actually did that with the microfreak and po-33, it was a lot of fun! The video is a few months old but you should definitely check it out.

Nice video, Thanks

[@FreeBeat]

Thanks for watching!

Nice mod-inspiration! In settings you can get a few more unison notes. Voice options 2 & 3 can get you a unison chord

[@FreeBeat]

Thanks for the tip!

[@floatinganarchychannel3204]

Tip from me if u like :) When you map any parameter to the cycle envelope make it 100% and control the amount of modulation from the amount knob

[@FreeBeat]

That's a great and practical tip, thanks!

[@couchcamperTM]

thx for the reminder, I wanted to sell mine and didn't get to it last weekend. ;-)

[@FreeBeat]

How come you decided to sell?

[@couchcamperTM]

@@FreeBeat I don't feel like playing with it. It's not as inspiring as I hoped it would be. And I like getting quick results^^ I prefer Model D, Crave, Mono/minilogue, even Volca Bass, everything is super accessible, LIVE The MF feels more like fiddling around in an hour-long sound design session (or until the ears bleed^^)

[@evankeal]

Well 'everything' on the microfreak is nearly infinite compared to 'everything' on the boxes you are comfortable with. As someone who has zero patience I disagree that the microfreak has the negative aspects you garnered from youtube. The microfreak has set the bar for functionality with incredible control design. I love all those things you mention but the MF is a different universe and even I can use it with ease.

[@couchcamperTM]

@@evankeal it was pretty much impossible for me to get a good sound out of it. Surprisingly, I must add, after all those great reviews online. literally no sweet spots lol To each his own...

[@evankeal]

@@couchcamperTM Yes sir, sorry I didnt catch you had owned one, I likely am using it for different reasons to begin with but yeah sound is relative. So far I havent used it in recordings but I think its going to be useful, I created a bass synth patch the other day that is as inspiring as any I have come across. Theres some voodoo going on in it that would not be possible without the matrix and the everything-can-be-routed-to-everything design of the MF, wish I knew what I did to make it. I am very tempted to get the volca bass as a companion for it.

[@FuZZbaLLbee]

10:20 war of the worlds alien sound 😀

[@FreeBeat]

Oh woah good catch!

[@michaelburch1204]

The unison spread modulation sounds like you’re mashing the pedal in Pole Position. Hahaha

[@FreeBeat]

Thanks for watching!

[@brokenscart7989]

Hey FreeBeat. Do you have a PO speak? I got one and it’s insane. Pair it with the NTS1 and it is a freeeeeak. I’d love to see you show it who’s boss.

[@FreeBeat]

I do have the speak. I have quite a few videos using it here on the channel as well :)

[@brokenscart7989]

@@FreeBeat I probably need my eyes and brain tested. I have no idea how I missed that..
