NAUTILUS pushes the boundaries of what a performance synth and workstation is capable of. With the power of nine engines to drive a new approach to sounds, plentiful sampling, audio recording, effects, and processing power, there is simply no other synth that delivers more to explore sonically, with the workflow to get you there faster than ever. Korg spent years refining all our digital, analog, processing, and hardware technologies and delivering them in a way that helps the musician connect with their instrument. The result is the incredibly powerful, one-of-a-kind NAUTILUS.
The NAUTILUS features nine dedicated sound engines to realistically reproduce sounds such as pianos, electric pianos, organs and more.
To start, the enhanced SGX-2 piano sound generator offers delicate
expressiveness to capture all the nuances of the acoustic piano,
and NAUTILUS features the most piano libraries ever put into one
product; with 12-step velocity-switched sound, string resonance and
more. The EP-1 electric piano sound generator realistically
reproduces seven different famous electric piano sounds. The CX-3
engine – the heart of our sought-after CX-3 reissue -covers the
distinct sound of classic tonewheel organs. Add to that MOD-7
VPM/FM synthesis, the PolysixEX and MS-20EX for analog modeling,
and the STR-1 for physical modeling, and you have essentially an
engine for any type of sound you’re looking to get. Used together
in Program or Combination mode, these distinctive engines create
completely new timbres.
The approach to the included sound on NAUTILUS, started with
Korg setting aside our preconceptions of what sound should be like
on a conventional music workstation, and instead focused on pushing
the boundaries of sampling and programming to create a brand-new
classifications of programs that we divide into three groups:
“Unique” sounds:
The NAUTILUS brings you distinctive sounds including phrase loops,
prepared pianos, found percussion and more. Many seldom heard-of
musical instruments found in different regions around the world can
be difficult to play, but distinctive phrases played on these
instruments are featured on the NAUTILUS. Use these phrases as-is
in your songs—let your imagination be your guide. The NAUTILUS
features sounds that were sampled for the first time just for this
instrument, including prepared piano sounds created by placing
different objects between piano strings and recording samples, or
“found percussion” sounds made by turning ordinary items into
instruments to be struck. Not only do these novel and mysterious
sounds provide an unexpected flavor to your songs, they offer broad
possibilities for sound effects used in film and TV music as
well.
“Current” sounds:
The NAUTILUS also offers the freshest sounds that blend in well
with today's music scene, including synths, drum kits, special
effects and more. For synths, be sure to check out the EDM, electro
and chiptune sounds for starters. Also, the NAUTILUS features more
than 50 kinds of drum kits—sounds that most strongly reflect the
changes in music over time. The special effect sounds offer useful
material like drums added to dance music to create beats—sounds
that you can put to use right away.
Standard sounds:
We’ve brought together all of the most important sounds a
workstation needs including piano, electric piano, guitar, bass
guitar and more, covering all genres. For the newly sampled piano
sound, we’ve also recorded the lovely sonic ambience of the studio,
and you can mix the piano and ambience sound as you like with the
new ambience sound. A new electric piano model with a
characteristic thick sound has been added, which works great for
funky playing styles. We’ve also added many phrases that let you
play back actual performances of guitar and bass parts that
keyboardists will find useful.
With the DYNAMICS knob, you can instantly control the changes in
volume and tone in response to how hard you play the keyboard
(velocity); and you can customize this knob in real time to match
the keyboard playing feel required for each style and song. Even
when playing the same sound, you can turn this knob to get the
feeling of playing a completely different sound. By finding just
the right setting for your playing style, you'll uncover even more
of the possibilities that the NAUTILUS offers.
When you activate the DYNAMICS knob and turn it to the left, the
keyboard responds more softly to your playing, giving you a wide
range of dynamics. This allows for delicate, expressive playing
when accompanying a piano solo or vocals, which directly reflects
the dynamics of your performance. On the other hand, turning the
knob to the right gives a stronger, more flat dynamic response.
This brings out the sound when you’re playing in a band or
ensemble, which works best when performing with a more even
feel.
The six RT (real-time) knobs at the top left of the panel give you direct control over changes to the PROG and COMBI sounds. A variety of functions are assigned to each knob that lets you enjoy making changes to sounds, such as the filter cutoff and effect depth, the gate time, tempo and swing of the arpeggiator or drum track, the type of snare drum and more. In COMBI mode, you can group timbres and control their levels with the knobs. Further, you can press these knobs into the panel to lock them in place, preventing them from being accidentally changed while you’re playing. For instance, you could use this to enable only the knobs you often use onstage and push the ones in that you do not need.
For the NAUTILUS, we have completely rethought the user
interface, considering that panel controls tend to become denser as
more functions are added. The interface of the NAUTILUS lets users
find just the things they’re looking for once they understand the
principles.
The MODE button lets you see what you’ve selected in each mode on a
single screen, from PROG and COMBI to the set list, sampling,
sequence and global modes. Each mode has tabs for each function,
and the PAGE buttons offer more detailed editing with consistent
operations. With the user-friendly navigation of the NAUTILUS, you
can press the MODE button at any time to return to the start if you
get lost. A dark mode is available for the display, using black as
the primary color to reduce eye fatigue.
Six quick access buttons are also available as shortcut buttons.
The NAUTILUS further offers four templates as a continuation of the
previous user-friendly features, which can be used to select modes
like PROG and COMBI, as transport buttons for sequencer playback
and recording and so on. You can also select your own settings as
you like. What’s more, you can freely assign functions you
frequently use and save them in one of four sets.
Four scenes of arpeggio patterns and drum track sets are made available that perfectly match each PROG and COMBI preset sound. These are useful for switching between scenes while they’re played, for use when improvising during performance, or for expanding your vision when composing music starting from a sound.
The nerve center of the NAUTILUS is KORG’s enormous eight-inch
(800 x 480 pixel) WVGA color TouchView display.
In addition to simply selecting a sound or choosing a parameter
with the touch of a finger, the enhanced Touch-Drag ability allows
more detailed control of parameter values. Interactive instruments
and panel graphics provide the ability to do everything from
adjusting the lid of a grand piano to connecting patch cable on a
semi-modular synthesizer model.
The TouchView display also hosts a convenient new Search Function,
allowing you to search for (and preview) sounds based on their
titles.
NAUTILUS can organize all of the resources you need to get
through a song—or a set—using the Set List mode. Using the Set List
mode, the TouchView display can host 16 color-coded touch-screen
buttons; each one can instantly call up the appropriate Preset,
Combination, or Sequence—regardless of mode!
You can also select different button colors, such as when you want
to change the colors within a song while playing live. This is a
powerful feature for situations that require quick and accurate
control. The Set List mode even adds a nine-band graphic EQ,
allowing the overall tone to be tweaked to match the venue.
Using KORG’s Open Sampling System, NAUTILUS can quickly sample
an external audio source, regardless of whether NAUTILUS is in the
Program, Combination, or Sequencer modes. The Open Sampling Mode
can even resample the performance of the NAUTILUS itself. The user
sample bank, which extends the convenience of the EXs sample
library to user samples, allows custom samples to be loaded and
played, taking advantage of the gigantic SSD capacity.
AIFF, WAV, SoundFont 2.0, and AKAI S1000/3000 format samples can be
loaded into memory via USB memory. Additionally, you can use a USB
Ethernet adapter to exchange large amounts of sample data with your
computer at high speed. Instruments or samples that you've
previously created on your PC can be used to construct a music
production setup based on just the NAUTILUS itself.
NAUTILUS features a sequencer/recording section that offers both
16 MIDI tracks plus 16 audio tracks; a great resource for putting
together a dazzling performance or a brilliant production. MIDI
sequencing makes it easy to capture ideas, inspiration, and
pro-quality phrases using the Drum Track, or RPPR (Realtime Pattern
Play/Recording) functions.
The 16-track audio recorder simultaneously captures up to four
tracks of 16-bit/24-bit uncompressed data at a sampling rate of 48
kHz. Play along with recorded tracks, add effects, and then
resample the NAUTILUS itself and place the resampled WAV files
directly in a track. When polishing your tracks, feel free to use
mixer automation and editing functions such as copy, paste, and
normalize to get the results you want.
NATILUS provides 16 internal effects to add impact to your sonic
creations. Each of the 12 Insert effects can be applied to
individual or multiple timbres in a combination, or to individual
or multiple tracks of the sequencer. In addition, two Master
effects can be applied to sends 1/2, and two Total effects can be
applied to all tracks at the final stage of the sound.
A separate three-band EQ is provided for every timbre, for every
sequencer track, and for every audio track for adjusting subtle
tonal balances or for creatively modifying the overall sound.
nanoPAD2
Any class-compliant USB-MIDI controller can be connected directly to the NAUTILUS. Assign functions to a Korg USB MIDI controller with pads (nanoPAD, nanoPAD2, padKONTROL) to play drum parts.
When you switch program sounds during a performance to get ready for the next section, or when you switch from Program mode to Combi mode, the sound that's currently being output is always given priority and its effects are maintained during the program change, ensuring a seamless transition with no dropouts. This function has also earned extremely high praise from pro musicians.
The keyboard on the 88-key model of the NAUTILUS uses a
four-stage real weighted hammer action made in Japan, called the
RH-3. This action is heavier on the lower notes and lighter on the
higher notes for superb playability. The 73-key model features a
much-requested light-touch synth keyboard from C to C, as with the
61-key model. This key action lets you play organ parts with plenty
of glissandos, as well as synth solos that take advantage of the
keyboard’s wide range.
The 88-key model is fitted with luxurious wooden side panels, and
the 73-key and 61-key models a completely new design with
impressive curves that rise from the bottom of the unit to the
sides, patterned after the NAUTILUS’ namesakes: the Nautilus
submarine and the cephalopod mollusk. All of these elements make
the NAUTILUS a distinctive instrument onstage as well, brimming
with personality.
