Arturia Microbrute User’s Manual

1 Introduction
Congratulations, and thank you for your purchase of the ARTURIA MicroBrute analog
synthesizer.
The MicroBrute is based on the award winning analog designs of its big brother, the
MiniBrute. The MiniBrute became a modern classic by bringing excellent sound quality,
user features and craftsmanship to the market with a price point that no others were
able to match. The MicroBrute builds on this legacy and is designed to be another
modern classic for anyone from the first time synth buyer to the experienced pro with a
studio full of gear.
Since the late 1990s, ARTURIA has received acclaim from players and reviewers alike for
designing state-of-the
-
art software emulations of the venerable analog synthesizers from
the 1960s to the 1980s. From the Moog Modular V, back in 2004, to Origin, a modular
system of a new generation that we introduced in 2010; from Analog Factory
Experience, the first hybrid synthesizer ever (debuted in 2008), to the Oberheim SEM V
released at the end of 2011, our passion for synthesizers and sonic purity has given
demanding musicians the best software instruments for professional audio production.
