Overview of some of ARTURIA’s software, hardware and hybrid instruments
After recreating so many legendary analog synthesizers by translating these classic
instruments into sophisticated DSP algorithms, the time was right for ARTURIA to
introduce an analog synth of its own, the MiniBrute. But
reproducing
analog circuitry is
not the same as
designing
great-sounding analog circuits, so we enlisted the aid of Yves
USSON — an extremely talented analog circuit designer and synthesizer enthusiast
whose work spans three decades.
Besides being a talented researcher in bio-molecular microscopy, his clones of the
Moog modules, as well as ARP or EMS and his own designs, are highly renowned in the
“modular” world and continuously produced under license by specialty manufacturers.
What’s more, he’s always willing to share his considerable experience, and pass along
his knowledge to others. All his schematics stay open to the D.I.Y.

his works can be found on the “Yusynth” project website

, and he casts a long, and
welcome, shadow on the major Internet forums devoted to analog fanatics.
