<!-- SC_OFF --><div class="md"><p>Hi guys, I want to buy a first analog synth to get started with sound design. I wanted to know if the microfreak was a good first synth. </p> <ul> <li>I already have a full size keyboard (Roland FP-10) so the fact that the keys are very different is no issue for me, even a good perk</li> <li>I wanted to experiment sound design with simple stacking analogue oscs. Yes, it offers many different types of oscillators <strong>but it only has 1 with very broad tuning</strong> which I'm not sure is great to get started with. This is the main thing that is preventing me from jumping into it.</li> </ul> <p>On the other hand there is the microbrute or the monologue, but they are not polyphonic and I would like to play some chords occasionally.</p> <p>Or is there another option around that price range (I can extend it a bit if necessary better pay a bit more for something that will be more use to me than pay less rn and let it sit in my closet).</p> <p>I am also wondering if the microbrute is only targeted to play dirty aggressive sounds or if it is more polyvalent than that and can play nice cute sounds. Cause I can buy a refurbished one for 140€ rn</p> <p>But again I'd prefer a synth without traditional piano keyboard since I already got mine</p> </div><!-- SC_ON --> submitted by <a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/vinz243"> /u/vinz243 </a> <br/> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/synthesizers/comments/igtrjy/microfreak_as_a_first_synth/">[link]</a></span> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/synthesizers/comments/igtrjy/microfreak_as_a_first_synth/">[comments]</a></span>
