When it comes to bang for the buck the Korg NTS-1 would be very hard to beat. I mainly bought mine for all the different effects. But it does so much more. Quite the powerhouse that fits in the palm of your hand!
You’d be forgiven for thinking that yeah. I certainly wouldn’t want to use it with just that but it’s a welcome addition for quick jams and previewing sounds
A veritable Big Bang of music creation, the ambient universe arising from a singular-ly small music box. (Agh! Someone stop me before I choke on my own grandiloquence! :p )
Fantastic jam, Chris. I just picked up the MK2 version to go along with my MK1... looking forward to some mind-bending jams with those two together! Cheers!
That sounds awesome and is exactly what I need to create a sountrack to a contact juggling/magic routine I'm making. I'll have ago with these settings and see if I can come up with something as cool as you have. Thankyou for writing your settings down.
Thank you. I'm currently working on a patch collection video for the Nts1 that has details of how to dial this in. Hopefully it'll be finished in the early new year
I just tried it. Amazing. One thing I added was Filter Knob A: 0.% and Knob B: 100% then slowly augment Knob A to 10-15%. It sounds like a second oscillator climbing. With enough practice, you can play an independent melody next to the drone.
Nice one, I hope you have fun with it 😁 I also made a video of 50 different patches for the NTS-1 if you need something to get you started ua-cam.com/video/pSlGfrfRvxw/v-deo.html
@@ChrisLodyMusic I followed your instructions above and this tiny black box is making the same glorious noises as in your video. Next band practice I'll sneak this in (connected to the microfreak) and blow some minds I'll be going through your 50 patches vid next. Thank you for making these videos
I just watched this video and tried the patch on my NTS1. WOW! I honestly never knew it could produce such huge sounds. inspired me to explore a bit more with it. Thank you for this video.
Amazing! I built mine today and can’t wait to really explore it. I’ve tried the effects out using volcas and am suitably impressed but what you have created here just with the NTS-1 is fabulous. Thanks.
Thank you. Yeah it's amazing what they managed to cram into this little thing. You might also enjoy my patch collection video for it ua-cam.com/video/pSlGfrfRvxw/v-deo.html
@@ChrisLodyMusic I'm about to do just that Chris (well actually a bit later as we have a visiting 8 year old nephew for a week and he wants his share of the internet and my time!). I have the NTS-1 now cabled correctly with my volcas thanks to Korg support and the sends work correctly now on the mix channels. I do have an issue with the kbd strip which only plays one tone irrespective of where in the scale I touch it. I don't expect to use the kbd strip much and am considering taking it apart but I'll try it first with a midi kbd (I've also raised a ticket with Korg). Other than that I am delighted so far with it. Looking forward to your other videos. Cheers. Lee
Strange that, must have been one of the pins not making contact by the sounds of it so glad it's working. But yeah the keyboard isn't great but at least you can use it to preview sounds now.
Beautiful. Subbed & shared, just purchased an NTS-1 & buffered mult to make a little FX custom enclosure with all the I/O broken out to full size but after seeing this, I might get another one purely for the sound 👌
@@ChrisLodyMusic I m purchasing a second hand nts-1 these days. I have seen lots of videos... But what you ve done here with this gem is beyond any expectation. True magic. I hope... first to own a nts-1, second to learn it and manage to connect midi keys and third... Reach 1/5 of your level. Keep it up
Thanks very much. I've made some patch sheets and a bunch of presets that might help you learn how to use it. It's got the details of how to creat this patch in there. That's here ua-cam.com/video/pSlGfrfRvxw/v-deo.html
Yeah they're pretty cool. I made a patch video for it though there is no way to store or share the memory fully so I resorted to oldschool patch sheets ua-cam.com/video/pSlGfrfRvxw/v-deo.html
This was fantastic 👍🏻 Was sort of considering one of these as an effects box but seeing this I think I will take the plunge. Great video thanks for sharing.
Thank you. Make sure you install the latest firmware if you want it for an effects box as it adds an option in the global settings that enables you to toggle the auto power off that kicks in after 15mins.
Gary P Hayes Ha Yes I wondered if anyone would notice that 😄 I have absolutely no idea what I was trying to do because I know it doesn’t react to that!
Thanks. Only the internal effects were used. There's a brief run down of how to set it up in the description, or follow Massive Monks in my patch collection here ua-cam.com/video/pSlGfrfRvxw/v-deo.html
Thank you. The sound is made with just the effects and oscillators that come pre-installed. If you'd like to know how to reproduce it you can find it in this video ua-cam.com/video/pSlGfrfRvxw/v-deo.html
Love this! Can you offer some advice, which may sound silly! I have the same unit, but I am getting so much hum/hiss from it. What leads are you using from the headphone out to your interface? I have a stereo 3.6mm jack splitting to two 1/4inch jacks, going into 1&2 inputs on my interface? I hope you can help!
Thank you. Yes I've had an issue with noise with it when I power it from the same computer as I'm recording it on, it's a usb ground loop. Assuming that's the problem you're having you can buy a 3.5mm audio isolator or a usb audio isolator. I'd recommend one but I haven't bought one yet. Instead I power it from an iPhone charger and I made a midi to 3.5mm adapter as a work around. I have it cabled in the same way as you btw
That's good to know it isn't just my unit. I also have a Modal Craftsynth I purchased at the same time, which is also giving the same issues on micro USB. I have a DI box and a few other noise cancelling bits in the post. I hope it cures it!
Pretty amazing, really impressed with the Gregorian chant-like deep bass starting at :11 . I was having a hard time re-creating it and found the Alt (Knob B) rotation did the trick for the VPM ("UPN" on the mini-screen) wave. What parameter is "Alt" changing to bring in that sound? The documentation says "varies by oscillator", thanks a lot Korg.
Ha yes, the manual is super vague on that information for some reason! The VPM oscillator is an FM pair with knob A being the modulation amount and knob B being the modulation ratio. So a sine waves pitch is affected by another sine wave, with the pitch difference and amount it’s being affected set by the two knobs. High modulation (A) will sound brighter with a high ratio (B) and bassy with a low ratio. Does that make sense? 🤷♂️
@@ChrisLodyMusic yes, that helps. I'm just getting started with FM synthesis, so these are new concepts to me, but I get the general idea. Thanks for the quick reply, looking forward to seeing more of these!
@@ChrisLodyMusic yes, I commented on that video a couple days ago, looks like we're both having lots of fun with this new device. Once I get a little more comfortable with the built-in oscillators and effects I'll try loading some of the custom stuff.
@@ChrisLodyMusic thanks. I was thinking of strapping the NTS to the side of an Akai Ewi solo to have something to play over the top off, like a drone or some sort of arp.
Oh sorry I didn't realise that was my own description. The way I've written that is super misleading sorry, I'll add an edit. What I mean is during the video I switch oscillator types starting at about 1:40 from VPM to waves and so on, the the overall effect across the whole video is a mix of those oscillator types as they combine through the long tail of the reverb. There is no mixing of oscillator types in the traditional sense
Thanks. Yes I've made some breakcore type stuff in the video I've linked to below using Renoise as a sequencer. It's got a good few midi CCs it responds to so it's great fun over midi ua-cam.com/video/ZtjwIXHHS8M/v-deo.html
Thank you. I've added some approximate settings to the video description. It's where I start off in the video anyway and then tweak a lot but it immediately gives that male voice choir sound. Hope that helps.
Ooh tough one. They are really quite different from each other but I suppose it hinges a lot on how much dawless work you do or if you own a hardware sequencer because the Nts1 doesn't have one where the Keys does. The Nts1 is capable of a much wider pallete of sounds but is only monophonic Vs the 3 note poly of the Keys. I've ended up using the Nts1 more as an effects unit to process other dawless gear than anything else. The effects are excellent it has to be said
@@ChrisLodyMusic yeah I find the effects of the NTS superb, but thanks for clearing out that it's not polyphonic. The sound of the NTS is amazing but I'm more into polyphony since I'm planning on hooking it up to my midi keyboard
Yes mine did that too. Luckily the latest firmware adds an option in the global settings to disable the standby mode so I'd suggest doing that. The update also adds a non legato option too
Yeah sure. You'll likely need an adapter because the input of most pedals is 1/4" mono and the output of the Nts1 is 3.5mm stereo. Also some pedals need a 1/4" mono plug inserted or they won't switch on. So maybe a Y splitter cable and a phono to 1/4" adapter. Should sound awesome :)
Can someone tell me what patch its listed as on the linked page? ua-cam.com/video/pSlGfrfRvxw/v-deo.html i couldn't find any listing with 'drone' or 'cinematic'
BIG SOUND from a small box!
When it comes to bang for the buck the Korg NTS-1 would be very hard to beat. I mainly bought mine for all the different effects. But it does so much more. Quite the powerhouse that fits in the palm of your hand!
Geez, I thought those keys were painted on just for looks! That thing's ridiculous! Ridiculously cool, 👍!
You’d be forgiven for thinking that yeah. I certainly wouldn’t want to use it with just that but it’s a welcome addition for quick jams and previewing sounds

Pretty amazing, really impressed with the Gregorian chant-like deep bass starting at :11 .

So you did, sorry I’m so bad with names 😄
Does it have a hold, or do you need to keep your finger on the ribbon?
There is a hold mode of sorts. If you change the envelope type to OPEN it will play constantly which is great for drones
@@ChrisLodyMusic thanks. I was thinking of strapping the NTS to the side of an Akai Ewi solo to have something to play over the top off, like a drone or some sort of arp.

Nice stuff 😍
// I'm using a mix of the VPM oscillator (read FM oscillator) the Triangle wave and the Waves oscillator.// How are you mixing different oscillators?
Layered by recording do you mean? The NTS1 can only load one oscillator type at a type so this is just done with the VPM type.
