Arturia PolyBrute 12 Synthesizer

A 61-key 12-voice polysynth with stereo dual-filter architecture, near-infinite modulation capabilities, sound morphing capabilities and a groundbreaking Full Touch® MPE technology polyphonic keyboard that redefines musical expressiveness.

 

Continuing the legacy of its predecessor as one of the most powerful and expressive analog synths ever made the PolyBrute 12 goes a step further, redefining musical expressiveness with an expanded 12-voice architecture and groundbreaking Full Touch® MPE technology polyphonic keyboard. This synth isn't just an instrument; it's a conduit to unprecedented soundscapes.

Polybrute 12 takes in-the-moment sonic expression to a whole new level with a Full Touch® keyboard that tracks the position, pressure, and touch of each key and allows for exceptional precision and seamless polyphonic aftertouch across the entire key movement range.

From subtle nuances to powerful dynamics and momentum-sensitive envelope control, this keybed offers three distinct aftertouch modes which bring the musician into a direct and tactile connection with their sound. This, plus the iconic Morphée pad and ribbon control, means that each preset can be played in a truly multi-dimensional way - elevating expressivity for results which are simply breathtaking.

PolyBrute 12 is here, offering a colossal, rich, luminous and infinitely mutable sound that will define a new era of expressive analog synthesis.

 

Next-level expressiveness

PolyBrute’s Full Touch® MPE polyphonic keyboard brings unparalleled sensitivity and control, allowing each note to be modulated independently for incredibly dynamic composition. This plus the 3-dimensional Morphée pad, wooden ribbon controller and motion recorder, makes truly multidimensional modulation possible.

 

Limitless sound design

The 12-voice architecture of PolyBrute 12 combined with its analog oscillators, filters, advanced matrix and integrated FX allow for an infinite spectrum of sonic color to be explored. Choose between 768 dynamic presets or advanced end-to-end sound design and discover PolyBrute’s seismic sound.

 

Tactile workflow

PolyBrute 12 continues the tradition of hands-on, immediate control, offering a tactile and engaging sound design experience without the need for menu diving or shift functions. If you wish to tweak PolyBrute from your computer, you can do this too via the VST editor.

 

Build quality

Crafted with the finest materials, including black walnut wood, a next-generation keybed and striking aluminum exterior - PolyBrute 12 is designed to meet the demands of professional musicians.

Number of Keys: 61

This instrument has 61 keys, equivalent to 5 octaves, providing a wide range of tones for a variety of musical applications.

Aftertouch: Yes

Aftertouch technology on the keys allows musicians to add a new level of expression to their playing. When a key reaches the bottom of its stroke, the pressure exerted on the key can continue to be sensed and used to control various aspects of the sound, such as vibrato, volume, or tone modulation.

Envelope: ADSR

The ADSR (Attack, Decay, Sustain, Release) type envelope filter gives you precise control over the dynamics and shape of your sound. The ADSR components are detailed as follows: Attack: Specifies how quickly the sound reaches its maximum volume upon activation. Decay: Specifies the time it takes for the volume to drop from maximum to sustain. Sustain: Represents a stable volume level that is maintained as long as the sound is active. Release: Specifies how quickly the volume fades to zero after the sound has been released.

Modulation: Yes

Modulation allows you to change different aspects of the sound in real time, opening up a wide range of creative possibilities. For example, it can affect the pitch of the sound, creating a vibrato effect, or it can change the amplitude of the signal, creating a tremolo effect. It can also adjust filtering to create smooth transitions between frequency bands and dynamic textures. Modulation can also be used to change the character of the sound depending on the time or intensity of playing, giving the sound a lively and moving character.

Pitch Bend: Yes

The Pitch Bend allows smooth pitch changes, adding expressiveness to musical expression. Often used to create effects such as glissando or vibrato, this feature allows the player to make subtle or dramatic changes to the sound in real time. Pitch bend allows musicians to create smooth transitions between notes, increasing the dynamics and expressiveness of their performances.

LFO: 3

An LFO, or low frequency oscillator, brings electronic sound to life. It adds movement and interest to synthetic sounds and effects, playing an important role in both subtle synthesis and bold sound design. However, you won't hear the LFO itself because it acts as a modulator. This means that it does not directly affect the audio signal, but adjusts other parameters such as oscillator pitch and filter clipping.

Arpeggiator: Yes

The Arpeggiator transforms chords into sequences of individual notes played in various rhythmic and melodic patterns. Instead of playing the chords as a harmonic whole, the Arpeggiator breaks the chords into individual notes and plays them sequentially according to the selected algorithm.

Oscillators: 2

This dual-oscillator synthesizer offers a wide range of sonic possibilities that combine harmonic and non-harmonic tones. Users can adjust the frequency and amplitude of each oscillator separately, allowing harmonious layering of sounds, creating unison effects or captivating modulations.

Headphone Output: Yes

The headphone output allows direct connection of headphones for private listening. This output provides a convenient way to enjoy the sound without disturbing others or ambient noise.

Polyphony: 12

The polyphony of this instrument allows up to <%=tp_value % notes to be played simultaneously, providing rich and complex musical possibilities.
