It has the same synth engine as its big brother—the UltraNova—and comes with 256 awesome sounds so you can get started straight away. If you want to dig deeper, it's got a fully editable Nova-class synth engine (derived from the legendary Supernova series in the 1990s).<br></font><h3><span style="font-weight: bold;">Is MiniNova for You?</span><font face="Arial"><br></font></h3><font face="Arial">MiniNova's compact size, massive sound and performance/editing controls make it perfect for producers, gigging musicians and anyone creating music with computers—it can also be a 37-key controller keyboard with MIDI I/O. The voice-tune and vocoder enable you to recreate classic vocal effects, as well as brand-new voice-bending possibilities.</font><br><b style=""><h3>Choose Your Sound<br></h3></strong><font face="Arial">MiniNova has 256 onboard sounds and space to save another 128 of your own sounds. You can quickly search for sounds by selecting the type of music you're making, or the type of sound you're after whether it's bass, lead—hip-hop or techno. MiniNova comes with a free software Patch Librarian so you can store as many sounds as you want on your computer. If 256 is not enough, there are numerous soundpacks for MiniNova assembled by renowned artists and sound designers. These can be downloaded free from Novation.</font><br><b style=""><h3>Tweak, Warp and Arpeggiate Your Sound<br></h3></strong><font face="Arial">MiniNova can do things other synths can't. It has knobs which allow you to tweak and edit the sounds, but it can also "animate" sound with eight backlit buttons. These trigger "mods" in the synth engine that can warp sound in incredible ways as you play. There is also a large knob for filter cutoff so you can get instant control of the filter whatever else you are doing. MiniNova has an arpeggiator with 33 patterns. You can use the eight buttons to jam with these patterns, creating totally new sequences in realtime.</font><br><h3><b style="">Classic & Brand-new Vocal Effects</strong></h3><font face="Arial">MiniNova takes vocal effects one step further. As well as a vocoder, it has voice-tune—or the "Cher" effect. This means you can talk into the mic and play the tune you want your voice to follow on the keyboard. You can also run your voice through MiniNova's effects engine, adding reverb, distortion, chorus/phase, gator compression or EQ. This doesn't need to be limited to your voice; there is an input which you can plug a guitar or any other instrument and give it the same treatment; effects or vocoder.</font><br><b style=""><h3>The Synth Engine & Effects<br></h3></strong><font face="Arial">MiniNova has an enormously powerful synth engine, unheard of in such a compact synth. There are 14 conventional waveforms to choose from (square, sine, sawtooth, pulse, triangle and combinations), 36 wavetables and 20 digital waveforms. Each of the three oscillators (per voice) have density/detune for fattening up sounds, virtual sync and "hardness"—which acts as an additional low-pass filter. There are 14 filter types (and you can run two simultaneously), six envelope generators, three LFOs and 20 modulation slots where you can link modules of the synth engine together to shape sound. MiniNova can add up to five effects to each voice, including distortion, reverb, chorus/phase, delay, compressor, EQ and Novation's unique gator effect.</font><br><h3><b style="">Editing Software Included</strong></h3><font face="Arial">Editing sounds in such a powerful synth can be overwhelming, so Novation created a software application that gives you visual access to the synth engine. The MiniNova Editor works as a plug-in within your DAW or music software. You can fully edit MiniNova using the hardware, the software just makes it more simple to see what you are doing.</font><br>", "value":"449.99", "priceMin":"449.99", "priceMax":"449.99", "priceSavingsMaxPrice":"0.00", "priceSavingsMaxPercent":"20", "inventory":"8", "brand":"Novation", "reviewStarImageUrl": "https://static.musiciansfriend.com/img/brand/mf/cmn/Sprit-Sm-Stars.png", "reviewStarRating":"4.5", "reviewStarRatingInteger":"9", "reviewHowManyReviews":"16", "usedOrNew":"new", "discontinued":"0", "onOrder":"0", "clearance":"0", "canBeSold":"1", "accessoryCategories":"site1LJS,site1HAR,site1LIC", "stickerText": ""}
