Novation Nova Desktop Synth

This is an essentially new, ex-demo unit that was hardly demo'ed. It came to me by way of a rep that wanted a guitar I had in my shop but didn't want to part with cash. Since I'm not a synth person and my shop mainly sold guitars, the Nova pretty much sat there unloved.

It is currently running Nova OS 4.1 which raises the the base polyphony from 12 to 16 voices, adds the DoubleSaw waveform (with phasing, detuning, and unison), nine new special filter types, adjustable unison, and a knob pass-through option.

UTub link is actual unit running the demo sequences. Sorry for the the pitter-patter of rain on the tin roof!

Here is some info on it.

Novation has basically re-packaged the SuperNova into a desktop performance module and dubbed it the Nova. It uses analog Sound Modeling (ASM) to create stunningly clean but analog-like sounds. "3 completely independent oscillators, a variable noise source and 2 ring modulators per voice. This combined with the Nova's 12 voice polyphony means that there are 36 Oscillators, 24 Ring Modulators and 12 Noise sources available at once. All these waveforms can be combined in the Mixer section allowing the creation of very fat and complex timbres." There's also over 130 modulation routings. There are two inputs for filtering external sounds, a 40 band vocoder and 42 simultaneous effects including Distortion, Comb Filter, Chorus, Phaser, Flanger, Delay, Reverb, Panning, Tremolo and EQ.
