Arturia MicroFreak Vocoder Synthesiser "Limited Edition"

The Arturia MicroFreak Vocoder Edition takes the hybrid Freak formula and tips it over the edge with a 16-band Vocoder mode, a detachable gooseneck mic and a sleek new look. Behind the revamped appearance and microphone attachment is the same lovable MicroFreak that set the synth world spinning.

The Vocoder engine

Arturia have created an entirely new 16-band mode to transform your voice in the Freakiest way possible. The vocoder engine features 3 waveforms - sawtooth, pulse width and noise - while the Timbre and Shape knobs adjust the response of the 16 frequency bands.
