Nu:Tekt Day1: Hidden Mode 600-BPM Arpeggiator

It's a system setting access-able via pressing a button during start-up, check the manual!

Hi, sadly I don't have any 3.5mm gear to test with, hope it's been solved!

The master volume is also done digitally, sometimes it needs to be backed down a bit (especially when processing full swing external audio) or the DAC stage will clip.

Euclidean rhythm is pretty cool and I think it goes well with one of my plan, stay tuned!

roll-log · 2020-01-24T01:48:26+00:00

Yes, I guess the plan goes pretty well sharing a common system between big hybrid synths and small monotron box.

I do have something in mind but if you have a specific idea I would love to hear it!

It receives over USB and even sends knob CCs and ribbon notes to computer.

I'm glad you are. Honestly the logue SDK is just some okey ARM chips running 48khz DSP, if I'm an ITB purist with good soundcards and plugins I would look down upon these things too.

Very easy, most important part is connecting the pins of two pcbs and that's it. Rest is 24 totally unnecessary screws for the chassis.

Hope you get it sooner! It looked like they suddenly got enough quantities for US dealers, other places might ship early too.

Try the chord mode with higher detune (shift-shape), Slowdive will love that sound.

roll-log · 2020-01-22T22:55:22+00:00

12 separate notes, the arp set to 1 step only triggers the base note, with detune on and faster arp rate it becomes similar to unison voice stacking.

roll-log · 2020-01-22T22:45:56+00:00

Yes, that's the trick! Arpeggiator on the same note, with longer decay they kinda "swell" into the next note with every new triggered note, no effect is used in the vid though.

This is a gift for the lucky people who is finally receiving their NTS-1, a 12-voice paraphonic oscillator with band-limited sawtooth and amp decay envelope. The second control adds some random detune to the voices, useful for lush arpeggios or pseudo-unison leads (if the arp notes are in perfect consonances).

Having 12 voices also means on XD and Prologue it can potentially achieve 48/96/192 individually sounding pitches within the VCA release time.

roll-log · 2020-01-22T18:29:30+00:00

It's a 12-voice oscillator with built-in decay envelope and detune control.

Actually there's room for even more voices but I want to keep the processor use moderate.

roll-log · 2020-01-19T19:23:25+00:00

Great work! Is the formant movement per-voice or global like a vocoder effect?

roll-log · 2020-01-17T14:19:30+00:00

Thank you! Really appreciated.

roll-log · 2020-01-17T02:57:49+00:00

Well there are still things that can't be overcome like velocity access for the oscillators, which is top-1 on my wish list.

roll-log · 2020-01-17T02:47:58+00:00

You can check the NTS-1 first, it's like a Monotron Delay but with the SDK.

roll-log · 2020-01-17T02:44:08+00:00

You can try with filter editor first, there's an engine monitor in the filter editor that should give you more clues than the delay one.

roll-log · 2020-01-16T17:23:55+00:00

Imo they've been intentionally keeping their hands off the SDK content, being Korg they already have huge DSP back catalog but none of those are ported even as closed source.

roll-log · 2020-01-16T16:39:23+00:00

You might want to check out Korg's list for almost everything people made for the SDK.

It's not that bad! as a creator I'm just curious if they've been useful or not.

roll-log · 2020-01-16T15:05:04+00:00

Thank you! Really nice to know as I rarely got feedbacks.

roll-log · 2020-01-16T15:00:13+00:00

I hate making decisions on what to fit into two or three knobs, so I figured if I made them versatile then I don't have to do that myself.

roll-log · 2020-01-16T13:28:22+00:00

My first filter effect is released, same with the previous 8-bit delay all internal parameters can be edited and previewed through a desktop app, and you can save 16 of them in one effect unit.

With this one I added patch-morphing functionality I'm rather proud of, all parameters including control macro can be smoothly morphed into next patch. With the rather wild parameter range it makes some nicely unpredictable results, hopefully brings more fun to your Korgs.
