Product Description
The MINIAK is a powerful performance and production synthesizer. The MINIAK empowers creative musicians with phrase and step sequencing, a built-in drum machine/rhythm sequencer, an arpeggiator, a 40-band vocoder, stereo effects, and a virtual analog synth engine developed in partnership with the world-class Alesis synth team. While the compact, portable synth shines on stage, the MINIAK is also at home in the production studio delivering 24-bit audio resolution. The MINIAK puts up to eight multi-timbral voices at your fingertips, each with three oscillators. You can create interesting and unique sounds and take advantage of the more-than-600 preset sounds and store up to 1,000 programs in the MINIAK. The synth also has two multi-mode filters, three envelope generators, two LFOs, stereo effects, and a 40-band vocoder. On top of all of this sound-melding power, the MINIAK has a comprehensive sequencer with step and dynamic real time phrase sequencing, a drum machine/rhythm sequencer, and an arpeggiator to aid in creating the landscapes and textures you’re after. Rounding out this complete instrument are high-resolution, 24-bit balanced 1/4" inputs and outputs. The MINIAK has a 37-key semi-weighted keyboard with velocity sensitivity for all-in-one performance. It can also be used as a sound source for MPCs, computer software, and keyboards via MIDI.

Akai Pro MINIAK Virtual Analog Synthesizer with Vocoder Reviews
| 13 of 13 people found the following review helpful By This review is from: Akai Pro MINIAK Virtual Analog Synthesizer with Vocoder (Electronics) over the years i've bought and sold quite a few 'budget' (under $1000) synthesizers. the MINIAK (/ alesis micron) is blatantly superior to all of them, despite the fact it's also among the least expensive. don't be fooled by lack of hype, it sounds AMAZING and has a lot of cool features others don't, a spectacular value for the price.things the MINIAK totally owns: - excellent SOUND QUALITY. this is a true synth, no ROM based samples, everything is built on a foundation of mathematical soundwaves (sine / triangle / square). the sonic fullness of these basic waves is noticably thicker than comparable synths. the akai (/ alesis) engine is fat, squelchy, can hit hard with humbling force or sound mellow, warm, and soothing, convincingly emulate many classic analog sounds, rip, sizzle, or envelop in complex rhythmic textures like nobody's business. - miniak's numerous filters sound very rich. you can mix pre/post filter levels in various complex ways...

Also, I needed something that I could jam out on with friends, etc. For the price I got,this is the perfect entry level synth. It's not too hard to program, but it has a lot of features that higher level synths have. It has pretty much everything you could want for a synth, and even a micro-sequencer. Personally, I prefer just using it as a synthesizer and sequencing on my computer. The one thing about this synth that is bad, is the vocoder. For me, the vocoder presets were just not good enough by themselves. I had to do a lot of tweaking to get them to sound good. Not to mention, for every vocoder patch, I had to get the analog gain wayyyy higher than it was set. Otherwise, no sound would come out of the synthesizer. Besides that, this is a great synth and for the price right now, a definite one to consider if shopping for one. EDIT: 2/2/12...

I bought this primarily as a hobby all in one synth. I am in school right now, and got rid of my gear and wanted something small, and capable (space was a concern, as my old gear took up an entire room in my home). The Miniak perfectly fit the bill. I was an owner of the original Alesis Ion, it was a good synth, but had an insane amount of problems. I really only sold it because of all the internal and external bugs, not the way it sounded, which was really good. Later, i also bought the Micron, it was a decent synth, but i hated the look of it, and the awkward setup, it also had alot of bugs. Now to the Miniak, it is a absolute shame this thing was discontinued, it is amazing, and sadly most people will probably never know. All the major gripes of the Micron & Ion are gone. I could get into details, but i wont, to sum it up, it has all the pro's of the Ion and... Read more |
