Boasting a new keyboard, built-in sequencer, fresh sounds, and expanded MIDI capabilities, the NTS-1 mkII packs a gigantic set of features in the palm of your hand. Powered by an even more powerful processor than its predecessor, the NTS-1 mkII unlocks its full potential and welcomes a new wave of custom content through its upgraded logueSDK. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis DIY synth and effects unit is not just powerful but also versatile, a must-have tool for both studio and stage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNew Multitouch keyboard\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe NTS-1 mkII boasts a new 18-key multitouch keyboard, substituting the ribbon controller of the first generation, for precise playing and sequencing. This upgrade unlocks the ability to send MIDI note messages polyphonically, opening the doors to custom oscillators and effects leveraging the paraphonic potential of the NTS-1.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe center of your performance\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn addition to a powerful arpeggiator, the new 8-step sequencer opens a whole new world of musical possibilities. With live and step recording modes (with per-note gate length and velocity settings) available in combination with its new keyboard and easy octave switch, the NTS-1 mkII provides an intuitive and seamless performance experience. The NTS-1 mkII takes the sting out of forgetting your creative sparks. A new autosave function recalls all the parameters used in your last performance, including the step sequencer data, so you can pick up right where you left off. No more struggling to remember knob tweaks and pattern edits!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBut that’s not all! NTS-1 mkII has a MIDI OUT output so you can use its internal sequencer to control other gear in your setup. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePowerful new engine, sounds and effects\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNTS-1 mkII is an extremely powerful, flexible and fun-to-explore synth. While retaining the versatile features of its predecessor, this new iteration adds an array of new sounds, including new oscillator types and modulation possibilities, using its Audio IN signal as a modulation source to create FM, AM or RING sounds. The NTS-1 mkII is also an incredibly capable and expandable FX unit. In the mkII, we added many new Modulation (distortion, fuzz…), Delay (tape delay, BPM synced delays…) and Reverb effects, as well as handy oscillator OFF and Filter THRU functions, making it a uniquely versatile piece of gear that will cover all your needs at home or on stage. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExpanded connectivity\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIntegrating the NTS-1 mkII is now easier than ever. In addition to the SYNC IN\/OUT and MIDI IN, we’ve added a new MIDI OUT output for seamless connection and expanded performance possibilities with other gear. On top of that, most parameters on NTS-1 mkII have been made MIDI CC compatible for deeper control. It is also now powered through a new USB-C bus.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEven more DIY fun\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe new NTS-1 mkII retains the DIY kit format from the original, and offers new customization options with reversible anodized silver and metallic black side panels. And don’t worry, we’ve kept the same form factor and dimensions as its predecessor meaning custom sides, stands and other custom parts will still fit!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA new and more powerful logueSDK\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePowered by a new chip, the NTS-1 mkII has expanded processing power, making complex effects and oscillators more possible than ever before. A new development API is available for developers on Github, more information here.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCustomization and 3D data \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThanks to its DIY nature and open design, the NTS-1 mkII is a highly customizable synthesizer that you can modify in several ways. In addition to the open source logueSDK that allows users to build their own custom oscillators and effects, the hardware of the NTS-1 mkII can also be physically modified cosmetically and functionally. To help you get started with physical customization, we are providing the necessary schematics and instructions to personalize your NTS-1 mkII in many different ways! \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u0026gt; Specifications\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eKeyboard:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMultitouch keyboard \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSound generator system: \u003cbr\u003e1 VCO, 1 Multimode filter, 1 EG, 3 LFO\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEffects: \u003cbr\u003eMOD (CHORUS, ENSEMBLE, PHASER, FLANGER, SOFT CLIP, HARD CLIP, SINE FOLD, FUZZ), REVERB, DELAY\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eInput\/output jacks:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHeadphone \/ AUDIO OUT jack (3.5 mm stereo mini-phone jack), AUDIO IN jack (3.5 mm stereo mini-phone jack), SYNC OUT jack (3.5 mm TRS mini-phone jack, 3.3V output level), SYNC IN jack (3.5 mm TRS mini-phone jack, 20V maximum input level), MIDI OUT jack (3.5 mm TRS mini-phone jack), MIDI IN jack (3.5 mm TRS mini-phone jack), USB port (Type-C)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePower supply:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUSB bus powered\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eCurrent consumption:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e500 mA or less\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDimensions (W × D × H):\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e129 × 78 × 39 mm \/5.08”×3.07”×1.54”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWeight:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e122 g\/4.30 oz\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIncluded items:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUSB cable, Assembly Instructions\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Korg","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44431155560541,"sku":"BM4959112238107","price":265.05,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0736\/8179\/7213\/files\/front_slant.jpg?v=1778348915","url":"https:\/\/gearstage.store\/products\/korg-nts-1-mk2-programmable-synth-kit","provider":"GearStage","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
