The new Liquid Analog Sound synthesizers from Novation are simply the best sounding, best value, coolest looking, and downright easiest to use synths in their class.
KS5 61-Key Synthesizer Features
•
Semi-weighted with aftertouch keyboard
Superb Liquid Analog sound based on enhanced K-Station engine
Unique Hypersync editing for instant sync and effects settings
4 part multi-timbral with 4 individual outs
16-voice polyphony
16-band vocoder and 4 arpeggiators
All 33 Knobs, sliders, and buttons transmit MIDI for instant control
Audio Input for processing of External Signals
400 memories (200 pre-programmed) and 100 performance memories (50 pre-programmed)
6 high quality simultaneous FX on each part: Reverb, Chorus, Phaser Delay, Panning and Distortion, EQ Filter
Sustain and Expression pedal inputs
Awesome Sonic Performance
Being the pure pleasure seeker that you are, you'll appreciate that both these instruments feature Novation's chilled and unique Liquid Analog Sound. Phatt? Oh yes. Gut-wrenching bass? And then some.
Three powerful oscillators combine with waveform "doubling" and clever single cycle wave replay for mega phatt sounds with no loss of polyphony, while FM algorithms take care of the metallic and percussive sounds.
Want more? — You've got it, as these superb synths are also capable of producing classy electric pianos, organs, basses, and leads, plus, you can use an external audio source as an oscillator waveform or route it through the mixer, filter, and envelope sections. Cool.
Awesome Sound Modeling
When it's pumpin' the last thing you need is a user interface that gets in the way. Slows you down. Turns you off. No fear of any of that here. Thirty-three knobs and sliders get you immediate access to where the action is, plus the large, blue and silver 2 x 20 character backlit LCD screen accepts full descriptions for program and parameter naming. That's right — no more cryptic messages. Recall a named factory preset, tweak, pull it, bend it to get "your sound" and instantly save it in any of the 400 program or 100 performance locations.
But a great sound and easy to use nature are only the start as the KS4 and KS5, with typical Novation flair and genius, have other real cute tricks under the hood.
Hypersync™ to the Beat
Taking a staring role is Hypersync. Another unique Novation technology, Hypersync means no more individually selecting and adjusting multiple parameters to create MIDI clock/tempo synchronized effects.
Just grab and turn the powerful Hypersync edit control to apply templates (either factory stored or user created), of musically inspiring synchronization and effects settings. Within minutes, you'll be using Hypersync to create complex audio motion effects that are perfectly locked to the tempo of your composition. It sounds great. It is time saving. It works.
Simultaneous Effects and More
You want more? How about 24 simultaneous effects with a distortion that will make your ears bleed? A flexible reverb and a synchronized stereo chorus with incredible depth, are just a few of the effects available.
Add to this the 4 stellar arpeggiators, which can be combined with the 2 LFOs to create jaw-dropping audio motion effects, a funky 16-band Vocoder for robot and talky effects, handy drum maps plus the superb semi-weighted with aftertouch keyboards, and you've got 2 of the the slickest, highest quality synths available today.
