PolyBrute 12

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.

A centerpiece for your studio?

I had no prior experience with any of the -brute series synths. After a short while of getting acquainted with the Arturia way of thinking, which seems quite different from Korg and Roland, I was amazed to discover that the Polybrute is a very comprehensive instrument, as if someone had read your secret feature wishlist, with nothing left to desire? Well, no synth has so far become the one and only that includes all the timbres and behavior of the other synths out there. Indeed, at times you think, hmm, I wished it could do this or that. But then you realize: it is already in there, just hidden and maybe executed in a very "french" way. In summary, it is a very worthy polysynth combined with a more than worthy master keyboard - as expressive as a CS80, although maybe not always as immediate.
It can pull off all sorts of Minimoog-ish bass and lead tricks, its VCOs sound full and juicy, envelopes are fast enough for synth percussion. Together with the sub and the mod matrix it should be able to pull off even the most demanding Memorymoog sounds (except where saw plus ramp of VCO3 would be required, since the 3rd osc is only a sub). Its range is from clean to medium gritty. The Steiner Parker goes into MS20 territory. The East Coast wavefolding of the VCOs sounds great for triangle and saw waves and gives you some sort of a "poly Buchla" with patch memory. The concept of mixing pulse, triangle and saw with the highest flexibility is similar to the Moog One. This synth could not have been made in the 80s, yet it can replace quite a few of the 80s synths. Now controlled by a very sensitive and expressive master keyboard... Amazing.
