  • The introduction of motorized knobs overcomes the mismatch that conventional synthesizers present when changing patches. NINA’s knobs instantly update to predefined positions anytime you change patch, and adjust automatically during console operation, patch morphing, and modulation to accurately display current settings.
  • The motorized knobs feel exactly like conventional analog potentiometers, but with the ability to instantly switch between a rotary dial and a multiple position switch to better cater for what you’re controlling and the amount of variance required.
  • The tune controls use this feature to switch between coarse step detuning, which works like a rotary switch, and fine detuning, which feels just like a standard potentiometer.
  • The motors can also change the amount of resistance that you feel, creating a tighter feel, or change positions to add end stops, zero detents and notched effects.
  • The controllers are incredibly precise with more than 16,000 steps of stable accuracy across a single rotation. This level of control allows for super-accurate recall and precise tuning adjustments, giving you the ability to finesse the sound exactly as you desire.

  • 3 Oscillators per voice (2 analog VCOs, 1 digital wavetable)
  • Oscillator 1 and 2 waveforms morphable between triangle, sawtooth, and blend with the pulse wave
  • Suboctave mode for VCO 1 square wave
  • Hard Sync Oscillator 2 from VCO 1
  • Fine and Course tune control with up to 8-octave range
  • 96 kHz 24-bit wavetable oscillator resolution
  • User loadable wavetables
  • Selectable Fuzz & Noise sources—Pink, White, Oscillator 1 and 2 XOR (Fuzz), or external input
  • LFO with selectable shapes, modulatable rate and level controls

  • Classic 4-pole transistor ladder VCF
  • Modulatable resonance, available as a matrix destination
  • Extremely overdrivable, or perfectly smooth low-noise modes
