Product Description
The Akai MINIAK Virtual Analog Synth is a powerful performance and production synthesizer that empowers you 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 keyboard shines on stage, the MINIAK is also at home in the production studio delivering 24-bit audio resolution.The MINIAK puts up to 8 multitimbral voices at your fingertips, each with 3 oscillators. You can create interesting and unique sounds and take advantage of more than 600 preset sounds and store up to 1,000 programs. The Akai synth also has 2 multimode filters, 3 envelope generators, 2 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, and 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.Under the hood A MINIAK program is a sound built from the MINIAK's internal oscillators, filters, and envelope generators.

In a synth, oscillators generate raw sound. Their output is fed into the filters, whose output is fed into the amplifiers. As the signal moves along that path, you can manipulate the mix at several points and apply modulations, envelopes, and effects to create a custom palette of sounds.Sound Generation The oscillators can produce different waveform types and shapes to c
