NF-1 Desktop Synthesizer

Imagine a compact synth that squeezes raw virtual analog power into a monophonic beast, using an all-pass filter to twist sounds into swirling, phase-shifted textures unlike any classic low-pass setup.

This desktop unit packs a single virtual analog oscillator for punchy leads and basses, paired with one LFO for rhythmic sweeps and modulation depth. Hands-on knobs let you dial in the VCO pitch, LFO rate and shape, filter resonance, and more, all feeding into a mono audio input for processing external signals alongside its own output. A standout CV/Gate input hooks right into modular rigs, giving precise remote control over pitch, while the sturdy metal chassis keeps it roadworthy at a portable size.

Fans on Reverb and demo videos praise its gritty, immediate sound and modular-friendly design, though some note its monophonic limit keeps it focused on leads over chords. It's a JMT Synth gem for noise experimenters craving unique filter effects without the bulk.
