Building on its acclaimed predecessor, this premium 61-note flagship instrument doubles the polyphony to a massive **12-voice bi-timbral architecture** and introduces a revolutionary, custom-engineered **FullTouch MPE keybed**. Housed in a striking aluminum chassis with premium wood accents, the PolyBrute 12 is a sound designer's playground and an elite performance centerpiece.

What makes the Arturia PolyBrute 12 a masterpiece of synthesis?

The PolyBrute 12 redefines how musicians interact with analog hardware by turning key pressure and physical gestures into multi-dimensional sound modulation. Every single preset features **seamless patch morphing**, allowing players to smoothly interpolate every knob, slider, and internal parameter between two entirely distinct sonic states (State A and State B) in real-time. Backed by pure analog warmth and staggering mechanical control, it bridges the gap between classic vintage synthesis and future-focused MPE expression.

Key Performance & Sound Design Features

-   **Revolutionary FullTouch MPE Keybed:** Tracks the exact velocity, depth, and pressure of your fingers across the entire travel of each key. Unlock 5 expressive aftertouch modes—including mono, polyphonic, and custom envelope-triggering configurations.
-   **Titanic Pure Analog Voice Architecture:** Driven by 2 analog Brute VCOs per voice, a multi-mode noise generator, a sub-oscillator, and cross-modulation FM sync.
-   **Dual Morphable Filter Configuration:** Features a gritty, state-variable **12dB/oct Steiner-Parker filter** and a creamy **24dB/oct Moog-style Ladder filter** that can be routed in series or parallel.
-   **The Iconic Controls (Morphée & Ribbon):** Instantly twist textures utilizing the **3D Morphée XYZ touchpad** alongside an elegant, front-facing **wooden ribbon controller** for fluid pitch bends and custom modulation tracking.
-   **The 12x32 Modulation Matrix:** The brains of the operation. Route 3 LFOs and 3 loopable ADSR envelopes to up to 32 destinations with 64 dedicated patch connections—offering modular-synth complexity with digital recall convenience.
-   **Polyphonic Sequencing & Motion Recording:** Program complex patterns via a **64-step polyphonic sequencer/arpeggiator**, or record your hands-on knob movements in real-time with the built-in Motion Recorder.
