This is not a 1:1 clone and will not load hardware presets.

Please note that this app's sound is closer to the A1, which is a different sound from the NL1/NL2X.

While we were inspired by their wonderful and iconic work; this app is not trying to copy those synths. We created something completely new. It's a synth for synth nerds :)
