With its powerful engine, NTS-3 allows you to play individual Kaoss effects or seamlessly combine up to four effects simultaneously, which can be saved for future use.

Unbound playability
NTS-3 is not just an effects unit; its unique interface brings a new, fresh dimension to your performances with superior playability in a compact body that can be taken anywhere. Drawing inspiration from the renowned intuitive ease of use underlying all Kaoss products, NTS-3 uses the iconic X/Y pad to drive performance-focused features like Mute, FX Depth and tap BPM, combined with a creative Latch function to separately control several effects at the same time.
Unparalleled customization and LogueSDK
NTS-3 offers unbound onboard editing and customization options, and also uses an open development API available on GitHub that allows users to develop and create brand new effects via its dedicated LogueSDK, allowing for virtually unlimited possibilities and new effects becoming available for the platform – a true game changer! Users can then load these new custom effects into their NTS-3 via the dedicated Kontrol Editor application for macOS and Windows.
Connectivity
As a performance-focused effects instrument, NTS-3 brings comprehensive and flexible connectivity options. Using the Sync in/out connections, playing in sync with other devices is fast and easy. In addition, an internal switch also allows these connections to double as MIDI in/out for even more connectivity options that adapt to your style and workflow.
Nu:Tekt DIY fun
True to the DIY nature of every Nu:Tekt product, NTS-3 Kaoss Pad Kit is really safe and easy to assemble: no soldering is required and the assembly process takes less than 20 minutes. To add some extra creativity to the assembly process, Korg includes reversible metallic black and Kaoss-reminiscent metallic red side panels so you can further personalize your NTS-3.
