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. OK, not exactly a synth in conventional terms but given that it's coming from Korg and is a sequel to its NTS-1 build-it-yourself synth, it's certainly worth a mention here, even if the centrepiece of the hardware isn’t a synth engine but a 4-channel oscilloscope…

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.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! Display modes: Single, Stereo (Input1L-INPUT1R, Input1L - Input2L, Input2L - Input2R), 4ch?XY(Lissajous, 2ch)

Frequency Range: 1Hz~10kHz, Hz/NOTE mode switchable, [1ms~10s,sec/BPM switchable(pulse, envelope mode)] 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. Tuner Discover the history behind the two companies, with detailed timelines and a whole host of facts and interesting information on your favourite synths. From the production process to the inspiration behind the synths; this book has it all. Complete with interviews from both the Korg and ARP teams; explore the never-before-heard stories, anecdotes and behind-the-scenes information. What’s IncludedA detailed look at semi-modular synthesis, Patch and Tweak with Korg is based around our popular range of patchable synths: MS-20 mini, ARP 2600 M, and Volca Modular, as well as the SQ-1 and SQ-64 sequencers, and the NTS-2 Oscilloscope. Featured Korg / ARP members: Fumio Mieda, Tatsuya Takahashi, Dina Pearlman, David Friend, and many others Frequency: 1Hz~10kHz, Hz / NOTE mode switchable, [1ms~10s,sec / BPM switchable(pulse, envelope mode)]
