Korg Nu:Tekt NTS-2 Oscilloscope Synthesizer Kit

Product Information

Behringer has wasted no time in announcing faithful clones of the Sequential Prophet VS (appearing as the Pro VS Soul), the Oberheim OB (appearing in monophonic form as the UB-1 Spirit) , the Roland Jupiter-8 (appearing as the Saturn), Moog Minimoog (appearing as the Model D Soul), Roland JP-8000 (appearing as the JP-4000 Spirit), and the Korg Monotribe (appearing in a new synth 'inspired by' the original unit, the Hirotribe Soul). Finally, there's the big B's take on the EMS VCS3 which was one of the first portable synths. However, compared to Behringer's AKS Soul it’s a giant. 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. 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. The NTS-2 comes in kit form so you can build it for yourself in less than 10 minutes (with zero soldering required). The perfect companion for any synthesizer; the Nu:Tekt 2 features dual stereo inputs and two separate outputs, allowing you to use the waveform generators as additional oscillators or an LFO. The streamlined interface allows you to adapt to the various onboard tools with ease; allowing you to process and visualise signals in seconds. The compact design of the NTS-2 can be powered by 2 x AA batteries or via the USB-C connection for maximum portability.

Modes: Single, Stereo (Input1L-INPUT1R, Input1L - Input2L, Input2L - Input2R), 4ch, XY(Lissajous, 2ch) 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 The fourth release in Korg's DIY-focussed Nu:Tekt series is bundled here with a special edition of Kim Bjorn's Patch & Tweak book, including interviews with Korg synth designers and players. These sounds can be used in the audio range or as control voltage sources, and they can be set to cycle continuously or act as one-shot impulses; that means you can turn them into LFOs, envelopes, triggers, and control voltage generators, as well as sound sources. Attaching the NTS-2 to any patchable synthesizer instantly expands its power in useful ways, making it an analogue synth player’s dream tool.

Korg Nu:Tekt NTS-2 Overview

Patch & Tweak with Korg is a Korg-focussed take on Kim Bjørn’s popular series of synth books. This edition focusses heavily on Korg’s current range of semi-modular synths, including the MS-20 Mini, Volca Modular and ARP 2600M, as well as the SQ-1 and SQ-64 sequencers. The book isn’t just about the oscilloscope but does a good job of telling some of the history of Korg’s synths, exploring how artists and producers use them – including new-age icon Kitaro and YouTuber Andrew Huang – as well as making suggestions for how you can explore creative new approaches including analysing sounds with the NTS-2. It’s an excellent companion piece to the scope. 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. A flexible Wave Generator mode makes NTS-2 much more than an oscilloscope. It has two oscillators with dedicated outputs. Each oscillator can create a variety of waveforms – sine, square, triangle, sawtooth, pulse, and noise – whose shape and phase can be adjusted to suit many applications.

Tuner NTS-2 wouldn’t be complete without a precise and easy-to-use Tuner with multiple display modes! 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!
