Two Engines, Many Voices
- Noise: Morph between particle noise, white noise, and a metallic noise that’s reminiscent of a synth cymbal. Great for gritty industrial-sounding percussion.
- Superwave: Saw, square, sine, or triangle waves, detuned with precision, oozing with fatness and texture that’s perfect for trance leads and dreamy pads.
- Harmo: Control the levels of 32 sinewaves for additive synthesis made easy, creating harmonically rich timbres that can be quickly shaped.
- Karplus Strings: A mode using physical modeling to recreate the vibrations and resonance of a string, from soft plucks to steel-string buzz.
- BasicWaves: A mode emulating two basic waveforms: square, containing only odd harmonics, and sawtooth, containing both odd and even. Two distinct, essential timbres.
- Audio In: Inject any audio signal into MiniFreak Stellar to process with Engine 2, the analog filters, and the FX engines.
- Multi Filter: No less than 14 modeled filters packed into an easy-to-use Engine mode, from a 36 dB LP filter to 3 notch filter modes.
- Surgeon Filter: Slice and scoop out entire frequencies with decisive precision, with LP, BP, HP, and notch modes, and a flexible Spread control.
- Comb Filter: Mimic real acoustic behavior using tuned feedback delay for quirky metallic sci-fi-esque resonance. Great for creating SFX or unique almost acoustic sounds.
- Phaser Filter: From 2 to 12 poles, dial in static phase effects on certain frequencies for creating great formant textures and unexpected harmonics.
- Destroy: Fold, decimate, and bitcrush the content of your sound. From razor-sharp to pixelated and static fuzz to plucky video game chirping, choose your degree of destruction.
- FM/RM: Combining frequency and ring modulation, create unique sonic interplay between both engines, altering waveforms, phase, and a blend of dry and ring-modulated signal.
- V.Analog: Two detuned virtual analog oscillators with continuously variable waveforms.
- Waveshaper: A triangular wave processed by waveshaping and wavefolding, creating squelchy, aggressive, and often metallic tones.
- Two Op. FM: A simple but powerful twin-operator FM oscillator, with two sine waves modulating each other’s phase to create sharp acidic tones.
- Formant: Shape your sound into vowel-like movements and plastic-tube resonance with 3 simple controls.
- Chords: A paraphonic synth engine that triggers duplicates at set intervals, creating defined, static chords with one key that can evolve over time.
- Speech: An engine that creates vowel, formant, and simple word sounds that are a little too close to human.
- Modal: Recreate the inharmonic vibrations and resonance of a hollow structure, great for adding texture, overtones, or acoustic timbres to your mix.
- SawX: A simple sawtooth becomes lethal sonic sharpness. SawX sprinkles chorus and phase modulation into the mix for supersaw mayhem aplenty.
- Harm: Additive synthesis meets wavefolding with spectacular hard sync results. Choose dense octave overtones or blow the harmonic series wide open.
- Bass: A nonlinear waveshaping algorithm that deals in lows: expect heavy digital density and molten metal momentum with this bass.
The Finishing Touch
- Chorus, phaser, and flanger
- Reverb and delay
- Distortion and bitcrusher
- 3-band EQ and peak EQ
- Multi comp
Spontaneous Sequencing
- Arp Controls: Change single-note repetitions into chord stabs, switch octaves in seconds, and introduce totally random notes with the Mutate button for arpeggios that leave an impression.
- Spice & Dice: A familiar feature for Freak fans, Spice & Dice alters various parameters, including pitch, gate, and more, so you can take your hands off the wheel and savor some inspiration in the unexpected.
- Modulation Lanes: Lock in custom changes to your filters, envelopes, FX, and beyond, using 4 modulation lanes, ensuring that it’s not just your notes that repeat in perfect sync; it’s your whole sound too.
Modulations Galore
- Dual LFOs: MiniFreak Stellar’s 2 low-frequency oscillators strike the perfect balance between sound-design flexibility and simplicity. Send them in different directions, connect them to each other for unique compound modulation, or go off-grid for totally unpredictable movement that’ll keep your sounds guessing.
- Cycling Envelope: Available as a secondary envelope or as an LFO-like repeating envelope generator, the Cycling Envelope brings unique modulation shapes and qualities to the table. Create rapid-fire peaks, audio-rate fluctuations, and varying slopes with no more than a couple of tweaks.
- Custom LFO Shaper: Using the buttons to the right of MiniFreak Stellar’s Arpeggiator controls, create your own custom LFO shape, one segment at a time, letting you introduce complex shapes that routinely repeat for chaos that’s mechanical in its precision.
In Perfect Harmony
- Chord Mode: Play full chord voicings with a single key thanks to this familiar musical feature. By default, Chord mode is set to a major triad, but you can input your own custom voicings one note at a time, which will be saved to MiniFreak Stellar’s memory.
- Scale Mode: Wave goodbye to wrong notes by locking MiniFreak Stellar’s keyboard and musical input to a scale of your choice. Choose from 5 preloaded scales, or punch in your own for melodies that never go outside the lines.
- Polyphonic, Diatonic: Combine both Chord mode and Scale mode for creating full chord sequences, polyphonic ideas, and harmonized melodies that stay in key at all times, making musical creativity effortless, enjoyable, and rewarding without fail.

The MiniNova 37-Mini-Key Compact Synthesizer by Novation has the same sound engine as the larger model, UltraNova. It includes 256 onboard sounds that you can tweak with five knobs, or totally warp with eight "animate" buttons. It has polyphony up to 18 voices with as many as five synth effects on each sound. MiniNova also has onboard VocalTune and classic vocoder effects, so you can recreate iconic vocal sounds from hip hop, urban and electronic music. MiniNova has a powerful sound engine for a micro synth. In addition to its 256 onboard sounds, it has space to save 128 of your own sounds. You can quickly search for patches by selecting the style, or the type of sound. MiniNova has 14 conventional waveforms to choose from, 36 wavetables and 20 digital waveforms. Each of the 3 oscillators has density/detune, virtual sync, and an additional low-pass filter called "hardness." There are 14 filter types, 6 envelope generators, 3 LFOs and 20 modulation slots where you can link synth modules together. MiniNova can also add up to 5 effects to each sound; including distortion, reverb, chorus/phase, delay, compressor, EQ and Novation's unique gator effect. The MiniNova includes a gooseneck microphone, taking its vocal effects one step further. In addition to VocalTune and the 12-band vocoder, the mic input can be routed through the effects engine. The onboard 1/4" input can do the same with an instrument. An onboard USB port and MIDI I/O allows MiniNova to connect to a laptop or control another keyboard / sound module. Editing sounds can be overwhelming, so Novation bundled the MiniNova Editor software, giving you visual access to the synth engine. The software works as a plug-in within your DAW and allows full editing of your MiniNova hardware patches. MiniNova also includes Patch Librarian software to enable unlimited patch storage on your computer. |
MiniFreak is a polyphonic hybrid keyboard that combines two digital sound engines with warm analog filters, playful modulation, spontaneous sequencing, and rich stereo effects for sounds that are immediately curious, beautiful, and chaotic in equal measure.

Its digital voices then collide with analog filters, balancing digital crispness with a rich analog response, complete with 6-voice polyphony, 12-voice paraphony, monophonic, and unison configurations. |
