Arturia Mini V3 Overview
The Arturia Mini V is a meticulous recreation of the most recognisable mono synth of all time. Utilise the classic three-oscillator magic that brings iconic lead and bass sounds into your mixes, with added features such as expanded modulation options, a standalone LFO, a range of FX, and much more that cement this synth's place in the professional contemporary.
Flexible and timeless, the sound of the Mini V fits seamlessly into any style of music. Thanks to True Analog Emulation, Arturia has brought the analog warmth of vintage circuitry to the digital realm. Furthermore, they have developed Mini V in partnership with the creators of the original to produce a musical experience that brings all the magic it did when it was first brought to market in the 70s.
Presenting three sonically accurate oscillators, a super rich ladder filter, and everything else you should expect from an accurate recreation, the Mini V sounds authentic. Whether you're flying through retro solos or getting to grips with some serious bass, Mini V brings it all in a modernised interface with a no-hassle workflow including adjustable polyphony, versatile effects, and modulation options.

Faithfully recreating the original Mini's straightforward layout, the Mini V offers the same instant sonic gratification with a few new tricks up its sleeve. With a varied sonic palette ranging from lush to aggressive, the Mini V can serve up leads, basses, pads, brass, strings, and special FX with ease. Three oscillators cover the frequency range and waveforms of the hardware, Arturia has added hard sync, precise fine-tuning, and key tracking on the second oscillator. The famous 24dB ladder filter makes an appearance and is carefully recreated in all of its glory. Enjoy the crisp transients, and aggressive snap of the Mini V's envelopes. Once purely monophonic, the Mini V now offers up to 32-voice polyphony at the flip of a switch and unison mode triggers multiple voices from a single note for huge sounds. Finally, just like the original, the mixer supports external audio input to bring practically limitless sonic potential.
Modern advanced features
To keep up with modern demands, Arturia has injected various contemporary features into the Mini V. Configure up to eight modulation routings between a wide selection of sources and destinations, now you can approach the Mini V like a mini modular and define sounds in new weird and wonderful ways. Bring motion to your sounds with a standalone LFO. Excite your sound with a range of elegant effects, including a vocal filter for talkbox effects, a chorus, and a ping-pong delay with independently adjustable stereo channels. Create up to four custom automation curves in the Motion Recorder and assign each to any of the parameters on selection, presenting a new way to bring movement to your sounds. Lastly, a multi-pattern, tempo-sync-able arpeggiator brings groove to your mix.
Powered by technology
Using proprietary modelling algorithms, Mini V is able to recreate the iconic instruments down to the component parts to create unrivalled realism and immersion. Unmatched in analog emulation, Mini V is powered by TAE and Phi technologies. TAE offers component-level modelling to accurately present the characteristics and behaviour of the instrument, whilst Phi's state-of-the-art physical modelling brings the acoustic properties into the virtual world for hyper-realism. The result is truly a next-level sound that is indistinguishable from the original to add to your productions.
