Korg Nu:Tekt NTS-2 Oscilloscope Synthesizer Kit

Product Information

As well as being used as audio, these sounds can also be employed as control voltage sources and set to cycle continuously or operate as one-shot impulses. This means that you can turn them into LFOs, envelopes, triggers, and control voltage generators, making the NTS-2 a potentially useful partner for any patchable synth. Tuner - No comprehensive utility kit would be truly fulfilled without the inclusion of a precise and user-friendly tuner, offering multiple display modes for enhanced convenience. Imagine a device so compact that it nestles comfortably in the grasp of your hand, yet harbours a potent waveform generator, a spectral analyzer, and even tuner capabilities. With the NTS-2, the possibilities are as boundless as your creativity, awaiting users to assemble and unleash its true potential. Key Features: The Nu:Tekt NTS-2 is a DIY Swiss army knife for musicians. Building on a 4-channel oscilloscope, it includes a flexible waveform generator, spectrum analyser, and tuner functions that make it the ideal addition to any studio. Meet Korg artists and explore their musical relationship with semi-modular Korg synths. Discover their creative processes, glean useful tips, and be inspired by their integrations with other gear.

There’s also an FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) mode with a realtime spectrum analyser, along with a dual waveform generator. Each of the two oscillators can create sine, square, triangle, sawtooth, pulse and noise waveforms. Provides a deep understanding of each synthesizer with info on the production process, anecdotes and never-before-heard stories The contents of the book sold by BJOOKS and the book that will be included in KORG’S Bundle are exactly the same however the book cover is slightly different cosmetically (the one included in the bundle has a metallic finish).The NTS-2 kit and book were conceived and developed to complement each other, providing not only a fascinating insight into synth usage and history, but also the tools to guide and inspire synth lovers at any stage of their musical journey. In addition to the oscilloscope, the NTS-2 also features a powerful, real-time spectrum analyser. Selecting the FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) mode provides the means to analyse waveforms and signals, represented by the sum of sine and cosine signals. This unique spectral analysis is great for sound design, allowing you to clearly see tonal changes with ease. Dual waveform generator and precision tuner Featured Korg / ARP members: Fumio Mieda, Tatsuya Takahashi, Dina Pearlman, David Friend, and many others The oscilloscope, a tool for visualizing signals and voltages, has been around for many years. As scientific instruments, they might not seem like something a musician could easily use – but not anymore. NTS-2’s interface is simple, clean, and easy to use - rather than twiddling knobs and trying to understand obscure parameters, you can look at your signals and understand them in seconds. That way, your artistic focus can remain where it belongs: on making music. A music toolkit NTS-2 is an oscilloscope, tuner, FFT and spectrum analyser that is accurate, intuitive, and incredibly useful. It comes in kit form and can be easily built with no soldering, usually taking no more than 10 minutes! NTS-2 can be easily connected into your synth rig using the dual stereo IN, dual stereo THRU/OUT, and two separate OUTPUTs – then you can use its dual waveform generators to give yourself an extra pair of oscillators or LFOs!

FFT/Spectrum Analyser - In addition, the NTS-2 is equipped with a specialized FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) mode that includes a real-time spectrum analyzer. The Korg Nu:Tekt NTS-2 is a compact powerhouse combining a four-channel oscilloscope with a flexible waveform generator and spectrum analyser; the NTS-2 is the perfect addition to any synth enthusiasts setup. This limited-edition bundle includes a copy of the Patch & Tweak with Korg book, which explores the world of semi-modular synthesis with a focus on Korg synthesizers.As with most of Korg’s product catalogue, there really is something on offer for everyone. Their Volca units provide a great introduction to the world of hardware synths, being as affordable as they are intuitive & compact. At the other end of the scale, their Kronos workstations offer formidable world-class performance that’ll fit any bill, no matter how prestigious. The ultimate limited-edition bundle for synth fans, comprising the all-new NTS-2 oscilloscope kit alongside a copy of the new "Patch & Tweak with Korg" book. The book explores semi-modular synthesis and features more than 25 new exclusive interviews with Pete Townshend, Jean-Michel Jarre, Richard Devine and more. Dual Waveform Generator - The Nu:Tekt NTS-2 features a flexible Wave Generator mode with two oscillators, offering various waveforms like sine, square, triangle, sawtooth, pulse, and noise. You can adjust their shape, phase, and use them as sound sources or control voltage generators. When connected to a patchable synthesizer, the NTS-2 expands its power and opens up a world of possibilities. Enjoy new and exclusive artist interviews with Pete Townshend, Jean-Michel Jarre, Richard Devine, Andrew Huang, Panic Girl, Legowelt, Red Means Recording, Maude Vôs, Kabuki, Moe Shop, Kristin Hsiao, TALsounds, Robby Stambler, ALOO, ChrisLody, Olga Prudey, On High Mountains, and Loopop. Powerful connectivity - Embracing seamless integration into your setup, the NTS-2 provides a multitude of connectivity options. In addition to its 4-channel input and dual waveform output capabilities, it is equipped with dual stereo THRU/OUT ports, allowing you to keep it permanently connected to your system. This eliminates the hassle of repeatedly plugging and unplugging cables. With the NTS-2, you can effortlessly maintain your signal flow even when the device is powered off.

This book creates a deep understanding of how instruments interface with the outside world – ideas largely unexplored in manuals and online demos. Now that you have these instruments, how do you integrate them effectively with the gear you already have? What should your next steps be to maximize their power? You’ll learn lots of these strategies and more. The history of Korg and ARP Discover the full story of Korg and ARP synth with detailed timelines, beautiful imagery, and plenty of information. Interviews with members of the Korg and ARP teams shed light on the product creation process, and you’ll enjoy never-heard stories, anecdotes, and behind-the-scenes information Exclusive interviews Equipped with two oscillators (each with dedicated outputs); the NTS-2’s Wave Generator mode allows you to create a wide range of waveforms. Sine, square, triangle, sawtooth, pulse and noise waveforms are included, providing the ability to customise the shape and phase of each waveform for added flexibility. You can use the various waveforms as control voltage sources or use them within the audio range. They can also be triggered as one-shot impulses or be set to continuously cycle. The versatile nature of the waveform generator means you can use the various waveforms as LFOs, envelopes, trigger control voltage generators and even as a sound source.
