The synth is based on a powerful audio digital-signal-processor chip which implements a unique, bandlimited synthesis algorithm for accurate NES sound emulation without the aliasing, noise, and poor audio signal quality associated with products that use inexpensive microcontrollers and crude PWM \/ RC-low-pass-filter-based DACs to generate chiptune sounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Arcano NES Poly Chiptune Synthesizer's analog audio signal path has been designed to closely resemble that of the NES for an authentic chiptune sound that includes the subtle nuances of the original audio signal produced by the classic game console. The Synth also allows users to create a custom patch using MIDI CC messages to edit 16 sound parameters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Arcano NES Poly Chiptune Synthesizer is built to last. Unlike most synthesizers, the NES Poly was designed without cheap electrolytic capacitors, which degrade and fail over time. All of the synth's audio-signal-path capacitors are high quality, audio grade film capacitors, and all of the non-signal-path capacitors are ceramic and are thus not susceptible to the degradation and failure that plagues their electrolytic counterparts. All of the exposed traces and soldering pads of the NES \u003cspan\u003ePoly\u003c\/span\u003e's printed circuit board are gold plated to prevent corrosion. The NES Poly features a rugged die cast aluminum enclosure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Arcano NES \u003cspan\u003ePoly\u003c\/span\u003e Chiptune Synthesizer is assembled in Florida, USA. The printed circuit board is fabricated in Washington. The electronic components are sourced from a global supply chain that includes 12 countries. The lead-free solder is made in Texas. The aluminum enclosure is made in Louisiana. All orders ship from Florida, USA.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1384\/6351\/files\/NESpolyConnectors_480x480.jpg?v=1591653082\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e(Does not include cables.)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Arcano NES \u003cspan\u003ePoly\u003c\/span\u003e Chiptune Synthesizer may not work with some MIDI controllers. Please verify your MIDI controller has a standard MIDI DIN out and is able to output MIDI data on channel 1. The Synth's USB connector is for power only, not for MIDI-over-USB control. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlease ensure your shipping address is secure.
