18-note multitouch keyboard for upgraded playability
The NTS-1 mkII takes its performance capabilities to the next level with a brand new 18-key multitouch keyboard. This replaces the ribbon controller found in the previous generation, providing precise playing and sequencing. With this upgrade, you now have the ability to send MIDI note messages polyphonically, allowing you to explore custom oscillators and effects that take full advantage of the NTS-1's paraphonic potential.
Step sequencer and arpeggiator - ideal for performances
With the inclusion of a powerful arpeggiator and an 8-step sequencer, the NTS-1 mkII opens up a world of musical possibilities. The newly added sequencer features both live and step recording modes, each with per-note gate length and velocity settings. Combined with the intuitive multitouch keyboard and easy octave switch, the NTS-1 mkII ensures a seamless and effortless performance experience.
New and improved engine, sounds and effects
The NTS-1 mkII is an incredibly powerful, flexible, and enjoyable-to-explore synthesizer. While retaining the versatile features of its predecessor, this new iteration introduces a wide array of new sounds. With new oscillator types and modulation possibilities, you can utilize the Audio IN signal as a modulation source to create FM, AM, or RING sounds.
Furthermore, the NTS-1 mkII serves as an impressive FX unit. It offers an expanded selection of Modulation effects such as distortion and fuzz, as well as various Delay effects including tape delay and BPM synced delays. With the addition of handy oscillator OFF and Filter THRU functions, this versatile piece of gear truly covers all your needs, whether you're at home or on stage.
Forget about struggling to remember your knob tweaks and pattern edits. The NTS-1 mkII features a convenient autosave function that recalls all the parameters used in your last performance, including step sequencer data. This means you can pick up right where you left off, eliminating any frustration caused by forgetting your creative ideas.
Versatile connectivity options
Integrating the NTS-1 mkII into your setup is now easier than ever. In addition to the SYNC IN/OUT and MIDI IN ports, a new MIDI OUT output has been included for seamless connection and expanded performance possibilities with other gear. Moreover, most parameters on the NTS-1 mkII are now MIDI CC compatible, offering deeper control over your sound. With the inclusion of a USB-C bus, the NTS-1 mkII is conveniently powered, ensuring a hassle-free experience.
