Arturia’s PolyBrute Noir Edition follows Arturia’s long tradition of releasing limited versions of their hardware synths in black.

Arturia has been releasing some of the best synthesizers on the market in recent years. Now, their infamous PolyBrute synthesizer has joined the brands’ Brute Noir range of products, where it joins the MiniBrute 2, MiniBrute 2S, and DrumBrute Impact.


Limited Edition PolyBrute Noir

Since its release two and a half years ago, Arturia’s PolyBrute synthesizer has developed quite a reputation for itself. This Brute Noir Edition offers the same six oscillators, the same oscillators that make the PolyBrute a fireball of deep sound design.

Arturia’s PolyBrute is a 61-key analog synthesizer with a total of 6 voices, and the premium velocity-sensitive key bed is complete with MIDI aftertouch. The limited Brute Noir Edition retains all of the same functionality as the original synth; only it flexes a new, rather enticing black exterior made with dark wood while the metal components have had a black lick of paint too.

Furthermore, the 6 oscillators are complimented by PolyBrute’s extensive modulation control, in addition to the modulable dual filters. And each preset offers 2 sonic states that you can morph with the multi-axis Morphée controller and Morph knob. The matrix offers easy access to modulation sources, and you can add character to your sounds with three stereo effects engines.

The pitch & mod wheels on the PolyBrute Noir synth are now ionized black while the two filter types are now distinguished with green & orange knobs. These knobs now poke out of the all-black design and create minimal contrast in the new design, but they certainly don’t look out of place because they add a sweet accent. In fact, the original PolyBrute flexed a single white knob – rate control in the sequencer/arp – but this is now black too.

PolyBrute Noir is now available for $2699 while stocks last.
