The original MiniBrute earned its acclaim with massive sound and hands-on playability — and the Arturia MiniBrute 2 takes it even further. Featuring a 48-point CV patchbay, it delivers huge sound straight out of the box with no patching required, while opening up endless creative possibilities when you choose to explore modular routing. A KeyStep-style sequencer enables expressive, on-the-fly improvisation, and sync compatibility with DrumBrute and other modules makes MiniBrute 2 a natural fit for modern production workflows.
With dual Brute oscillators and the renowned Steiner–Parker filter, MiniBrute 2 builds on everything synthesists loved about the original. Even without using the patchbay, you can craft deep basses, aggressive leads, atmospheric drones, lush pads, and more. Seamless Eurorack integration transforms MiniBrute 2 into a powerful and flexible sound design instrument.
Equipped with 48 CV patch points, MiniBrute 2 is the ideal companion for a Eurorack modular system. When paired with Arturia’s RackBrute Eurorack case, the two units physically link together with multiple positioning options, placing your modules exactly where you need them for an efficient and ergonomic setup.
MiniBrute 2 integrates effortlessly with a wide range of music gear. Alongside its extensive CV patchbay for modular systems, it features traditional 5-pin MIDI and USB MIDI connectivity. Sync easily with DrumBrute, Akai MPC Live, Korg Volca modules, and more. An external audio input also allows you to route sounds through MiniBrute 2’s powerful analog filters and shaping tools.
MiniBrute 2 evolves from the legendary monosynth that reshaped the analog landscape with its mixable waveforms, Steiner–Parker filter, and iconic Brute Factor. Now reborn with a semi-modular architecture, it allows you to splice its sonic DNA and expand its raw analog power into the world of Eurorack modular synthesis.
Born from the lineage of its predecessor, MiniBrute 2 is an adaptable, dynamic instrument with massive connectivity and semi-modular flexibility. Designed to sound huge while remaining compact and self-contained, it is a synthesizer built to grow, evolve, and redefine expectations.
MiniBrute 2 hides nothing. Its front panel proudly showcases Brute oscillators, the aggressive Steiner–Parker filter, and the signature Brute Factor. Beyond the familiar controls lies a deeper sonic arsenal that rewards exploration and experimentation.
MiniBrute 2 thrives through adaptation and connection. Its extensive CV/Gate patchbay allows you to rewire, reshape, and reinvent the synth at any time. Fully playable without patch cables, it also offers safe, direct access to its internal routing for deeper experimentation.
Designed by passionate synth enthusiasts, MiniBrute 2 is an instrument made by musicians for musicians. Every component and control reflects a deep commitment to expressive, hands-on analog synthesis.
MiniBrute 2 adapts to your creative style, whether in the studio or on stage. Its expressive keyboard, arpeggiator, and sequencer support everything from live performance to intricate sound design and modular hybrid workflows.
MiniBrute 2 reaches its full potential as part of Arturia’s modular ecosystem. With patch cables included, a guided preset cookbook, and seamless integration with RackBrute, it becomes the heart of a powerful and portable creative system.
