Korg Nu:Tekt NTS-2 Oscilloscope DIY Kit + Patch & Tweak Book Bundle (Limited Edition)

Multifunction Synthesizer Tool Kit with NTS-2 4-channel Oscilloscope, Dual Waveform Generator, FFT Spectrum Analyzer, Tuner, USB-C Port, Battery Operation, and Patch & Tweak with Korg Book

Patch, Tweak, Build, Explore

KORG, in collaboration with noted publisher Bjooks, ("PUSH TURN MOVE", "PATCH & TWEAK" series...) is proud to present a fascinating KORG and ARP synth exploration experience in the form of this special, limited edition Bundle.

This bundle combines the NTS-2, a powerful new tool optimized for a variety of studio tasks, and the "PATCH & TWEAK with KORG" book, a comprehensive look at semi-modular synthesis through the lens of KORG and ARP's iconic synthesizers. Along with a multitude of artist interviews, patch tips, tutorials, historical explorations, and more, this book will teach you how to put the NTS-2's power to work in your studio as a companion to your synthesizers and audio gear.

Synth beginners and seasoned musicians alike will find the journey not just educational, but also inspirational and full of new discoveries.

Important Notice: The "PATCH & TWEAK with KORG" book on its own (*) is readily available for purchase at www.bjooks.com and from resellers internationally.

(*) Warning:
-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 oscilloscope, side panels, and stickers are not included.

An interactive bundle experience

The NTS-2 Kit and "PATCH & TWEAK with KORG" book were conceived and developed to complement each other, providing not only fundamental knowledge, but also the tools to guide and inspire synth lovers through their music journey.

The Nu:Tekt NTS-2 is a DIY multifunctional tool for musicians. Building on a 4-channel oscilloscope that makes it easy to monitor and analyze audio and Control Voltage signals alike, the NTS-2 also includes a flexible waveform generator and spectrum analyzer, as well as tuner functions that make it the ideal addition to any studio.

"PATCH & TWEAK with KORG"' is the latest title in the "PATCH & TWEAK" series from noted publisher Bjooks. It's a comprehensive guide to semi-modular synthesis and the music that it has inspired, presented with a focus on the MS-20 Mini, the groundbreaking volca modular, the reimagined ARP 2600 M, and the SQ-1 and SQ-64 sequencers. Dozens of tutorials, tips, and tricks cover everything from the basics to advanced sound design methods. Interviews with famous and emerging artists, insights from KORG and ARP engineers, and detailed timelines of KORG synthesizers and ARP's legendary keyboards, make this book a must-have for any synth enthusiast.

The book features a wide variety of tips and tricks that use the NTS-2's many functions to expand the power of your studio - just look for the NTS-2 icon!

NTS-2: The modern musician's Swiss Army knife

The NTS-2 kit is compact and easy to assemble (*), but don't let its size fool you - it packs a real punch! The NTS-2 is an oscilloscope, tuner, FFT, and spectrum analyzer that is accurate, intuitive, and incredibly useful. But that's not all - using its dual stereo IN, dual stereo THRU/OUT, and two separate OUTPUTs, you can wire it into your synth rig and use its dual waveform generators to give yourself an extra pair of oscillators or LFOs! It's the ideal tool for every synth lover and modular user - from beginner to pro.

(*) No soldering needed, the assembly process requires less than 20 minutes

The best companion for synth learners

Even though synthesizers are musical instruments first and foremost, learning about them is easier and more intuitive if we can use our eyes to supplement our ears. Studying waveforms, frequency and time relationships, audio signals, and control voltages become clear and immediate if we can see how they change and interact, not just listen to what they're doing. Seeing these signals come alive in full color as we patch and tweak gives our learning process a huge boost!

The oscilloscope, a tool for visualizing signals and voltages, has been around for many years - but as scientific instruments, they might not seem like something a musician could easily use. Not anymore - for the first time, an oscilloscope has been designed with the musician in mind! The 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 a matter of seconds. That way, your artistic focus can remain where it belongs: on making your music.
