Hello World: programming the Korg NTS-1 (part 1)

I just got the Korg NTS-1 for my first Quarantine Birthday, and while it sounds really good for a tiny digital synth, I'm really interested in the SDK and learning how to write custom Oscillators and Effects for the Korg 'logue platform.
In the first video in this series, I'm assembling the little flat-pack synth, ( it even comes with a tiny tool, just like IKEA furnitures ) and setting up the development environment on my MacBook Pro.
PART 2 is Ready!

that minions thing was really trippy. amazing video!

[@oakfox]

love the animation :D

instant subscribe :-)

Thanks for the tuto!

Bonjour from Tokyo Olivier. This video is really great, thank you, can't wait to see you go through this journey. Have a good day, et bon courage !

[@OlivierOzoux]

Merci!

[@luga1398]

@@OlivierOzoux Bonjour, you haven’t posted lately but I hope you are doing fantastic. KZbin brought me back to this video. Since then, I completely switched my career and became a dev. Your work and Oscillator Sink work had a big impact on introducing me to the pleasure of programming through synths. Don’t know what you’ll do in the future, but I’m sure it will inspire someone, sometime, somewhere. Wish you the best

[@djdigital3806]

Just got one still in the box, didn't know I had to download file on it, Thanks!

[@OlivierOzoux]

You don't have to, but yeah you can get plugin oscillators and effects for it.

[@MrSlipstreem]

It's good to see someone assembling it properly. Screwing the corner pieces to the base first makes it so much easier. :-)

[@OlivierOzoux]

Ha, I tried to remember how the pieces came together and what an alternate order would have been. Thankfully this is more IKEA style flat-packing than actual DIY

[@ireadysucks3026]

@@OlivierOzoux is ikea not diy?!?!

[@napotronix]

I'm expecting mine in the mail next week so doing some preliminary research on the programming stuff. Never coded a line of DSP and haven't used C++ for about 30 years, but we'll see how it goes :D This was a nice little primer, thanks.

[@matthewcody1757]

Im just waiting on one to come by courier , as here in Aus because of all the strife in the world thats happening right now ,they have been kinda hard to order , so thx for this as i was wondering how to do this . Im looking forward to getting it to use with my SQ1 and Ocoast etc

[@zobbo123]

Just what I needed. Thank you !

[@ezContents]

This is a great video! I love your screen casting effect.

[@richcolour]

This is how to share your screen on YT. Excellent!

[@victorderrick2983]

You probably dont care at all but does any of you know of a way to log back into an instagram account? I was stupid forgot the login password. I would love any assistance you can give me.

[@victorderrick2983]

@Max Alfonso I really appreciate your reply. I found the site through google and im waiting for the hacking stuff atm. Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will reply here later with my results.

[@victorderrick2983]

@Max Alfonso It did the trick and I now got access to my account again. Im so happy! Thanks so much, you saved my ass :D

[@fortheloveofnoise]

Very well done video, I think I am going to wait for a good deal on a used Minilogue XD Module though.

[@GuidoGautsch]

The xd is excellent but what makes this little box so cool is the audio in, so you can use it as an FX unit (and something the xd doesn't do!)

[@pianoarennzimimikopi]

日本語の翻訳があったので助かりました。 とてもわかりやすかったです

[@klausfruhlingsbirne9433]

Hello Olivier, thanks a lot for the beautiful explanation. Unfortunately I can t go further after the step "make", because in my case it creates just the "build" folder and no "waves.ntkdigunit". I am pretty new with the programming worls, and I would be really happy if you could share with me any idea where the problem could be,,, all the steps before I made them carefully, also on a mac. Thanks

[@iosmusicman]

Cool stuff thanks. I love your little workers video. I would love to know what it took to create that (tools and man hours). Cheers. Lee

[@OlivierOzoux]

I have a couple of stop-motion videos on the channel where I show off some of that

[@iosmusicman]

Aha. I see you have a link at the end as to how you make the videos . Superb.

[@iosmusicman]

@@OlivierOzoux yeah sorry I noticed then at then end and replied to my own question. I then posted on the stop motion. Thanks for sharing. Lee

[@infinitedigits]

Have you been able to program any effects, could you share code you've written for effects? I've cloned their main repo but they don't have a demo for any effects. :( They have the skeleton code that logue-sdk includes for the effects template, and I found the headers with the effects API...but I really would love some demo code to get a better foot to start on with programming an effect.

[@OlivierOzoux]

I'm just diving into this, but I'm a general purpose programmer, not an audio/synth expert. I'll share what I've learned, but it might not be much.

[@jamesbritt5597]

Same. The SDK seems to assume one knows exactly what to code/change/add. I've tried a few semi-random things and gotten nowhere. They need to offer more complex examples with comments explaining the reasoning.

[@re8et355]

Please, would it be possible to upload the complete install procedure for linux?? I can't find a guide other than github repo readme files...

[@shoseinen]

Hi! Do you have plugins to share? Thank you!

[@faceitnow3473]

I can't seem to download a thing from the Korg site. What is the Software pass. The software pass is needed to go ahead with the download of the additional settings. How do I get the downloads to work? When I try to download the librarian all I get is the PDF manual??

[@st0rmchild]

Are you in Japan? I have a couple of those glow in the dark figures and I've only seen them here. The stop motion animation was a nice touch!

[@OlivierOzoux]

I’m in LA, but I got them at a Japanese store in little Tokyo, so almost? 😎

[@feronous8207]

Where is part 2 through 1000 :) .

[@OlivierOzoux]

Working on part 2 right now. Actually gave example code working. Hopefully shoot tomorrow, and edit this weekend, but we’ll see

[@feronous8207]

@@OlivierOzoux your awesome!

[@tgroppi]

Great production

[@PabloSintesMartinez]

Very easy... if you know what to do. For me, your video tutorial was chinese (in Braille). Would you explain it STEP BY STEP... and SLOWLY? Otherwise... it's useless.

[@re8et355]

I'd like a linux guide too, the clone procedure is the same on linux but a coherent guide is missing somehow.

[@city3015]

Why so complicated?

[@OlivierOzoux]

You’re asking me or Korg? As development environments go, this is actually pretty simple...

[@vasil3089]

your toys are kinda creepy dude
