Arturia MicroBrute UFO
Product information "Arturia MicroBrute UFO"
MicroBrute UFO is a tribute to the analogue renaissance that Arturia helped spark. A 100% analogue signal path, a fat Steiner‑Parker multimode filter and the legendary Brute Factor™ Drive deliver everything — from cutting leads to tectonic basses. This special edition impresses with a matte black casing and mars‑green accents — both a statement piece and a full‑blown studio tool.
Straight from the idea into orbit:
The intuitively laid‑out front‑panel controls, an 8‑pattern step sequencer (up to 64 steps each) and a patchable mod matrix invite limitless experimentation — all without menu navigation or software. Sync via MIDI, USB or CV/Gate, route external gear through the audio input — and it’s portable and playable with just one hand.
Whether youre an analogue beginner or an experienced patch pro: MicroBrute UFO inspires creative sound design whenever ideas flow.
BRUTE SOUND
From thick, untamed basslines and aggressive leads to wild, unstable overtones — the MicroBrute delivers a sound thats raw, edgy and unmistakably "Brute". The powerful analogue oscillator with continuously variable waveform mixing turns power into characterful tone.
100% ANALOGUE POWER
Harness the raw energy of analogue oscillators — refined with modern sonic aesthetics: Steiner‑Parker filter and Brute Drive provide uncompromising sound.
PATCHABLE MOD MATRIX
Modulate the MicroBrute by patching signal sources to destinations — or connect external equipment. Whether youre a Eurorack veteran or new to analogue synthesis: the MicroBrute UFO is addictive.
HANDS‑ON WORKFLOW
Analogue synthesis you can touch — optimised for modern music production. Sequence, patch and tweak to your hearts content — all without menus.

Arturia was founded in 1999 in Grenoble, France, and initially made its name with software emulations of legendary vintage synthesizers. In combination with specially adapted controller keyboards, Arturia created an excellent integration of software and hardware — the V Collection software suite has for years been the industry standard for virtual synthesizers.
With the analogue Brute product line, Arturia scored a surprise coup a few years ago and has since been at the forefront of the analogue synthesizer revival movement. In 2015 the BeatStep Pro became a bestseller in the sequencer/pad controller category. With the flagship synth MatrixBrute and the drum machine DrumBrute, Arturia now stands for flexible, powerful instruments with a distinctive sound and an absolutely intuitive operating concept.
