Modor NF-1

The Modor NF-1 represents an evolution in the realm of virtual analog synthesis. Though the synth is a digital DSP, it maintains the framework of classic virtual analog synthesizers.

The NF-1 may be digital, but that doesn’t mean it’s not capable of some warm, beefy sounds. It features three independent oscillators with ten waveforms each, a 12dB/oct resonant filter section, a formant filter with 3 morphing vowels, an effects section comprised of a comb filter and delay, and a modulation section boasting four 3-stage envelopes, two switchable LFOs, and a powerful modulation matrix.

In addition to the standard MIDI IN/OUT/THRU and volume/modulation pedal connections, the NF-1 features 8 voice polyphony, three separate playing modes, and a total of 448 patches.

    Modor NF-1 demo
    In this demonstration, the Arturia Keystep sends a simple arpeggio to the Modor NF-1. Switching through presets with the arpeggiator running provides a glimpse into the breadth of sounds the NF-1 produces, including analog-style acid squelch, glassy FM bell tones, plucky Karplus-Strong, and glitchy digital delay.
