Arturia PolyBrute 12 is an expressive polyphonic analog synthesizer, equipped with a 61-key FullTouch keyboard. Continuing the legacy of its predecessor, one of the most powerful and expressive analog synthesizers ever created, the PolyBrute 12 takes a step forward, redefining musical expressiveness through an expanded architecture with 12 voices and a revolutionary polyphonic keyboard featuring FullTouch® technology. This synthesizer is not just an instrument; it is a bridge to unprecedented soundscapes.
A patented keyboard architecture, developed over the years: FullTouch® describes the dynamic response of the keyboard's aftertouch – capable of capturing the exact position and acceleration of each key across the entire range of movement.
With three new aftertouch modes, the PolyBrute 12 invites a style of performance that evolves and breathes; allowing composers, artists, and synthesists to express their inner creative voice with an unparalleled delicacy and detail – for a sound that can range from extremely subtle to infinitely expansive in a single movement.
These, along with the Brute oscillators, the elegant intuitive modulation matrix, and the advanced software companion, make the PolyBrute 12 a synthesizer for all time – a union between raw power and human touch.
The most expressive synthesizer With a FullTouch® keyboard, multi-axial Morphée control, ribbon controller, and three inputs for pedals – this instrument offers more modes of expression than anything else available.
Unlimited sound design Next-generation oscillators, ladder and Steiner-Parker filters, innovative preset morphing, 32 effects, and the modulation matrix open up unmatched sound design possibilities.
Seamless integration with DAW Thanks to PolyBrute Connect, transitioning from detailed sound design to production and from composition to performance has never been easier. Manage patches and easily import new presets and sound banks.
Expanded architecture with 12 voices Create complex and rich harmonic structures, dynamic sound layering, and performances with a split keyboard using the PolyBrute's expanded voice architecture.
Renewed sound library The PolyBrute 12 library includes hundreds of bi-timbral presets with morphing, utilising the extensive set of features – 480 presets, to be exact.
