Following in the footsteps of the titans, the KORG NAUTILUS uses the legendary nine sound engines of the KORG KRONOS and offers a completely new and very clear operating concept. The simple and elegant design of the synthesizer workstation guarantees an excellent overview of all areas, quick access to excellent sounds and flexible functions with maximum ease of use.
In contrast to the standard model, the NAUTILUS AT is equipped with an additional aftertouch function that allows lively modulations to be added to played sounds by applying renewed pressure on the keys. To support this particularly expressive style of playing, all of the NAUTILUS AT's sound programs have been optimized for its aftertouch functionality, allowing the full potential of its nine powerful sound engines to unfold.
The sounds of the Japanese-made synthesizer are divided into three important categories and give the instrument a distinctive character with standard, current and unique sounds. The latest generation of processors gets far more out of the nine advanced sound engines than was ever possible before. The SGX-2 piano sound engine known from the KRONOS has been expanded in the NAUTILUS with additional grand piano sounds and, in addition to the desired setting of string resonances and a gradation in 12 different velocity levels, also offers the option of changing the hall acoustics of the respective instrument. The SGX-2 and all other sound engines, such as the EP-1 Electric Piano Engine, the CX-3 Drawbar Engine, the HD-1 PCM Engine, the MS-20EX Analog Modeling Engine, the PolysixEX Modeling engine, the AL-1 analog modeling engine, the MOD-7 VPM/FM sound engine and the STR-1 physical modeling engine as well as all associated parameters can be controlled via the 7" TouchView display with 800 x 480 pixel resolution or can be easily configured using the retractable rotary controls in the control panel.
If you need help locating the corresponding sound in the instrument, the search and preview function makes it easier to browse through all the sounds, which are based on over 1,770 multisamples. Your favorite sounds and combinations that you often use can be saved in a favorites list using asterisks. This means you can have your favorite sounds at hand in a flash. The NAUTILUS also offers six freely programmable quick access buttons that can lead directly to specific menus or functions. Four predefined settings and four user assignments are available here.
A polyphonic arpeggiator with over 1,500 presets, a drum track with over 1,200 patterns and a step sequencer are available in every mode and, combined with the new sounds, enhance your performances in a contemporary way. All settings can be perfectly configured for live use, saved and recalled later in set list mode. An indispensable function in live operations.
The total of 16 effects processors and the 3-band EQ for each individual track are also easy to access thanks to the new operating concept. The expressivity of a sound can also be perfectly adapted to the respective requirements using the separate dynamics control in the control panel. In this way, sounds can be played either very dynamically and elegantly or powerfully with less dynamic range in order to be more assertive.
The instrument also comes with a download code for an extensive and free additional software offering. The KORG Software Bundle includes, among other things, the Ozone Elements software from iZotope, a trial subscription to the online piano school Skoove and software synthesizers from KORG and other manufacturers.
