Enhance your sound design and music production with the innovative Nu:Tekt NTS-1 Digital DIY Programmable Synthesizer by Korg. This compact, yet powerful synthesizer kit invites you to immerse yourself in a hands-on experience of building and customizing your own instrument, with no soldering required and all necessary tools included. As the pioneering product from Korg's DIY-centric Nu:Tekt brand, the NTS-1 synthesizer is a testament to flexibility and portability, allowing you to integrate it seamlessly into any setup.The Nu:Tekt NTS-1 boasts a sophisticated digital oscillator, drawing inspiration from the MULTI engine found in Korg's renowned prologue and minilogue xd synthesizers. This oscillator is capable of generating a rich palette of waveforms, including Sawtooth, Triangle, Square, and VPM, and it's further expandable with custom oscillators developed using Korg's logue-SDK. This compatibility with content crafted for the prologue and minilogue xd means the NTS-1 is a treasure trove of sonic exploration.Shape your sounds with precision using the versatile multimode filter, offering Low pass 2/4-pole, High pass 2/4-pole, Band pass 2/4-pole, and OPEN mode, each with adjustable resonance. The single monophonic digital oscillator, one envelope generator, and three LFOs provide a robust foundation for sound creation, while the three stereo effect processors-inspired by the minilogue xd-deliver an array of reverbs, modulation effects, and delays to refine your sonic output.The NTS-1's arpeggiator is a source of endless inspiration, featuring multiple ranges, scales, and modes, including a captivating Random mode. Adjust the pattern length up to 24 steps and tweak the step duration when synced externally for intricate rhythmic sequences. The intuitive ribbon controller, straightforward interface, and clear display make playing and sound manipulation a breeze, while deeper parameter adjustments are just a combination of buttons and knobs away.Customization extends beyond the digital realm with the NTS-1. The unit's design allows for the attachment of custom side panels, encouraging you to personalize the physical aspect of your synthesizer. Connectivity is a strong suit, with AUDIO IN, SYNC IN, SYNC OUT, and MIDI IN connectors, enabling the NTS-1 to integrate with other hardware and software. Control it with external MIDI devices, process external audio through its effects, or synchronize it with other gear for collaborative performances.Portable and versatile, the NTS-1 is USB micro-B powered, ready to connect to a portable battery, computer USB port, or standard USB power plug, ensuring your creativity is never tethered to one spot.To elevate your music-making journey, the Nu:Tekt NTS-1 comes bundled with a suite of music software from Izotope, including "Ozone Elements" for song creation and mastering with AI assistance, "Skoove" to enhance your keyboard skills, "Reason Lite" DAW software, and a selection of software synths from KORG and other esteemed brands.With the Nu:Tekt NTS-1 Digital DIY Programmable Synthesizer, you're not just purchasing an instrument; you're unlocking a world of sound that is as expansive as your creativity. Whether you're a seasoned producer or new to synthesis, the NTS-1 is a compact powerhouse that promises to inspire and evolve with you.

Such a wonderful little machine. It packs a big punch in such a small frame. I hooked it up with my Korg Volca keys and it?s yin and Yang.

Thanks for the fast shipping and excellent product

For the price, this is an amazing little piece of kit. The effects are great, and I love the little one-voice digital oscillator. I've made some enjoyable and messed up sounds on it and aspire to do a little programming on it soon. Thanks!

Fun and worth every penny

This is an awesome little synthe with some powerful effects. Importing new effects and oscillators was easy. Assembling the NTS-1 was not difficult. It's worth the price for the effects alone!

Thanks Adorama for the quick shipping!

The NTS-1 is a fun little syth!

Purchased as a gift and Usps delays prevented it from coming in time for the holiday. My husband seemed to enjoy it though.  Worked as expected.
