It’s great for what it is. For me, it’s intended as my portable synth and it fills that role quite well. While the minifreak is great, it’s is coupled too tightly with its software for it to leave my desk. The microfreak is more standalone and only functions as a more traditional synth, which is perfect for me.
It’s not an absolutely stellar device, but I don’t need it to be. It’s a good mix of analog and digital functionality, which is also my preference.
TBH, it’s just a way for me to offload a couple more oscillators from my PC/DAW. Some of my more recent music is extremely synth-heavy so the fewer instances of software synths I have running, the better.
