Melbourne Instruments updates NINA synthesizer

Melbourne Instruments' flagship polyphonic analog synthesizer, NINA, has been updated with a new Multi-Track Sequencer mode that enables powerful pattern creation with step-based control and performance across four independent tracks, taking full advantage the synthesizer's 12-voice polyphony and motorized knobs.

NINA's major new firmware update introduces a new polyphonic, polyrhythm, polymeter sequencer with per-step parameter locking and front panel automation powered by Melbourne Instrument's revolutionary motorized knob technology. Additionally, this update adds 64 new noise sources to NINA's incredible synth engine, expanding the possibilities for greater sound design. The new noise types include various percussion hits, digital, metal and assorted noise types, as one-shot or loops giving more scope for creating percussive sounds.

The new sequencer mode adds time-based features like shuffle, micro-timing, clock multiplication, variable gate lengths, and probability options, offering fresh ways to control NINA's sound. The Multi-Track Sequencer mode is optimized for stand-alone use and as a powerful instrument when synchronized with other gear.
