A reference for bass and lead synthesis, after its legendary analog ancestor. Mini V’s sound goes above and beyond in terms of detail and drive.
Mini by name, Massive by nature
From classic prog and funk to mainstream pop, hip-hop and electronica, everyone fell in love with the Minimoog.
The Minimoog put the essentials of wall-filling modular synths into a package everyday musicians could afford, and take to the gig. The rest is history.
While Minimoog was not the first synthesizer, it was definitely the one that got most people’s attention. Robert Moog, whose name is synonymous with synths, had already seen his modular systems succeed and even cross into popular musical culture thanks to musicians like Wendy Carlos and Keith Emerson. Towards the late 1960s, though, demand for a truly portable and user-friendly way to get that soaring sound was building, and sales of the large and expensive modulars were slowing.
Vintage controls, thoughtfully enhanced
The original Minimoog featured a no-nonsense layout that yielded instant sonic gratification. Mini V starts there, and ends in a phenomenal sound ranging from creamy to monstrous, with extensive options for advanced sound treatment when you need it.
Three’s Company
Three oscillators cover the frequency range and waveforms of the hardware, for truly phat leads, basses and pads.
From the ground up
A rebuilt engine for Mini V explores the coveted non-linearities of the analog circuitry in a way that aligns Mini V with its historical namesake like never before.
Keep the bass
With Filter Bass Compensation you can crank up the filter and resonance of Mini V without sacrificing its classic monosynth baritones.
Choose an age
Introduce some circuit decay and detuning with the Vintage Knob, a continuous control that allows you to fine-tune your synth's calibration from supreme precision to 40 year-old attic-find.
Drive & feedback
Impart presence and crunch with the drive knob or recreate the classic effect of headphone reamplification, but be careful not to take it too far.
Modulation & effects
Create evolving movements & vivid sonic coloration without leaving Mini V’s interface; 1 arp, 2 modulators, 3 effects and 4 channels for custom keyboard expressivity.
The advanced Panel
Go from raw and unrefined to completely customized at the touch of a button. Mini V’s Advanced panel lets you dive deep into its modulations, keyboard response and effects for advanced sound design that takes this classic monosynth into the next generation.
Access in-depth modulation that rewards imaginative routing as well as a simple yet effective Arp, great for creating hypnotic melodic lines, rhythmic effects and revolving basslines.
Preset library
Enjoy an expertly-crafted selection of 150+ presets, from classic bass synth lines to brawny leads - find that perfect analog punch with ease.

The fact that it is polyphonic is really cool. What I like most about this plugin is the way it is configured; it stays very true to the original, but also provides tasteful new tools which can be very useful indeed.Gramatik
