SECRET BONUS VIDEO
So I actually recorded and edited a 21 minute video with me talking through the various function blocks on the MIniFreak, but since there is so much to this synth, I decided to totally scrap that approach and just edit all the noises and jams I came up with together into this, and let other videos I'm in (see below - also see Arturia's own tutorial series with Matt Pike which is great) actually explain it. It's a deep machine so I'll let it speak for itself.
