And some comments via Yves Yusson the man himself:

"Thanks guys !

It's been a real pleasure designing this little beast. I hope it will meet its public."

"The enveloppes are analog (Yusynth ADSR based with some improvements) the LFO was analog in the first version but because it was necessary to synchronise it with the arpeggiator, the LFO now is digital. The vibrato is fll analo too."

"First, I want to thank you all for your enthusiasm about the MiniBrute.

Concerning the digital section yes it will be updatable, this is one of the reason why there is a USB plug in it. Note that the USB is also used to set some parameters of the keyboard section such as Velocity enable or disable and choosing the Velocity Curve, same for the Aftertouch. The default setting is Velocity disabled and Aftertouch active. Normally (I don't master the digital section of this machine) the MiniBrute can handle the Polychain mode.

Note that the Arpeggiator can also be used as a basic sequencer. In the Hold mode, you press and hold the first key of the sequence, then you just enter the other notes by pressing the corresponding keys while still holding the first note of the sequence, during this process you can change the octave range of the keyboard between entering the notes therefore you are not limited to two octaves for the sequence. You can sequence a maximum of 12 notes. Unfortunatly once playing the sequence it cannot be transposed by the keyboard because pressing a new key resets the sequence."

YouTube Uploaded by SweetwaterSound on Jan 21, 2012

"Steve Dunnington, Product Designer Specialist from Moog Music introduces the Moog Minitaur at NAMM 2012, and we can't believe the bass this thing can crank out! The Minitaur packs the sound of Moog's acclaimed Taurus and Taurus III bass synthesizers into an affordable tabletop module. Complete with a pair of voltage-controlled oscillators, an amazing ladder filter, a pair of filters, and other analog goodies, the Minitaur is in every sense of the term a true Moog synth. What's more, it features both MIDI and CV connectivity! Check out the overview, then learn all about the Moog Minitaur right here: http://bit.ly/sw_Minitaur"

NAMM: Arturia MiniBrute Hands on NAMM Floor Tweaking

YouTube Uploaded by genxtargetmarket on Jan 21, 2012

"Noisy inspection of the MiniBrute. As usual, it really is too noisy at NAMM to do proper demos.

In my opinion, the MiniBrute was the standout fixed-architecture synth product at the show. It's a single oscillator synth and is, thankfully, NOTHING like a Moog. They even went with a Steiner filter. Good. There are enough Moog transistor ladder filters out there and the Moogerfooger version is and obvious addition if you really want it.

Well done & congratulations Yves Usson, Nyle Steiner & Arturia."
