MiniNova is the latest in the 'nova' range of synths dating back to the legendary Supernova series. It has the same incredibly powerful sound engine and synth effects as the Novation UltraNova which means it is capable of creating dirty-fat bass synth sounds, soaring leads, lush pads and vintage synth sounds. All this in a 37 mini-key form with a USB port and MIDI i/o so you can hook it up to your laptop and control your music software or connect it to another keyboard or sound module.</p> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="field-item odd field-item-1"> <div class="field-collection-view clearfix view-mode-full"> <div class="entity entity-field-collection-item field-collection-item-field-collection1 clearfix"> <div class="content"> <div class="field field-name-field-title field-type-text field-label-hidden clearfix"> <div class="field-items"> <div class="field-item even field-item-0"> <h3 class="blue-2c51a2">Tutorials</h3> </div> </div> </div> <div class="field field-name-field-desc field-type-text-long field-label-hidden clearfix"> <div class="field-items"> <div class="field-item even field-item-0"> <p><strong><span class="blue-2c51a2">Mininova – Selecting Sounds:</span></strong></p> <p><strong><span class="blue-2c51a2"><br></span></strong></p> <p><span>This tutorial gives you an overview of the Mininova's sounds and how to preview, edit and affect them.

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 into which you can plug a guitar or any other instrument and give it the same treatment; effects or vocoder.</p> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="field-item odd field-item-3"> <div class="field-collection-view clearfix view-mode-full"> <div class="entity entity-field-collection-item field-collection-item-field-collection1 clearfix"> <div class="content"> <div class="field field-name-field-title field-type-text field-label-hidden clearfix"> <div class="field-items"> <div class="field-item even field-item-0"> <h3 class="blue-2c51a2">Choose your sound - and get more for free</h3> </div> </div> </div> <div class="field field-name-field-image field-type-image field-label-hidden clearfix"> <div class="field-items"> <div class="field-item even field-item-0"></div> </div> </div> <div class="field field-name-field-desc field-type-text-long field-label-hidden clearfix"> <div class="field-items"> <div class="field-item even field-item-0"> <p>MiniNova has 256 onboard sounds and space to save another 128 of your own sounds.

Each of the 3 oscillators (per voice) have density/detune for fattening up sounds, virtual sync and 'hardness' - which acts as an additional lowpass filter. There are 14 filter types (and you can run 2 simultaneously), 6 envelope generators, 3 LFOs and 20 modulation slots where you can link modules of the synth engine together to shape sound.
