Incredibly fun synth, even more so if it's your first hardware unit

So this is my first hardware synth bar OP-1, and I'm having loads of fun

The modulation matrix is just insane, and the variety of sounds you can get out of this thing is incredible.

Only thing that's bothering is sometimes your fingers can reach touch-sensitive buttons above the keybed(which feels beautiful+aftertouch) while playing, triggering some FX/Sequence by accident

Very, very happy with this little machine

A powerful instrument

It’s a very powerful and complex instrument and interface.

My pros are the infinite sound design possibilities .

I don’t have cons for the arturia minifreak or in general for the arturia products

It's well made and good sounding.

Stop making mini Keys !
