NLS brings users the analog summing sound of three legendary consoles. Created in association with three of today's leading producers/engineers – Mark "Spike" Stent, Mike Hedges and Yoad Nevo, NLS captures the sound of:

- The SSL 4000G console belonging to Mark "Spike"' Stent (Radiohead, Björk, Muse, Maroon 5, Madonna)
- The EMI desk owned by Mike Hedges (The Cure, Siouxsie and the Banshees, Dido, Faithless, Manic Street Preachers, U2), heard on such timeless recordings as Pink Floyd's The Dark Side of the Moon
- The Neve 5116 console custom-made for Yoad Nevo (Bryan Adams, Pet Shop Boys, Sugababes, Goldfrapp, Air).

The Vortex is the first keytar to include a MIDI-assignable accelerometer. Now, you can get out from behind your keyboard stand and be just as visual as guitarists and singers with an instrument that will respond to your motion.

You'll be able to create incredible volume swells, amazing pitch bends, vibratos, filter cutoffs and more by tilting the Vortex's neck in the heat of the moment during live performances.
