Well, I finally got a Novation Nova. party! Can you tell I'm excited? I've lusted after the Nova for a bunch of years and now you can all join me in welcoming it to my little synth family. It came loaded with the latest 4.1 OS and was seemingly well taken care of by it's previous user. Up to 5 effects per voice and 6 audio outs with a stunning arpeggiator! With 6 voices you can have 6 arpeggiators going at once. Shocked Aside from using it as a synth I'll also be processing my Nord Lead 2 through it as it has 2 audio ins and 6 outs! With a 40-band vocoder on board I'm going to put vocals through it too. It sits nicely between my controller and computer monitors. It's very sexy......I love it!
I contacted Novation(now owned by Focusrite...unfortunately) and on the plus side the Nova has 24-bit internal A/D-D/A converters so it'll work nicely as an inserted outboard effect in Pro Tools as I do everything in 24-bit. On the negative side, since Novation is now owned by Focusrite they're really no longer making synths..just controllers...which means no OS updates for the Nova or SuperNova. Sad
I've combed the internet for a Novation user forum and there is none that I can find. It would be nice for Nova, SuperNova and Nova 2 owners to be able to trade patches and help one another. Anyone know of one they can point me to? If not maybe we can start one here, maybe a general Novation forum that spans all the ASM and Liquid audio synths???? Question What do you think Mosc?

Laughing congrats with your new machine!

As to a Novation forum ... that sure could be done, but I don't see a lot of novation related messages here and I think that should happen first?

Anyone having an opinion on this?

A Novation forum? Of course that is a great idea, but do we have many Novation heads here?

BTW, that Nova is looking good! Very Happy

....which is all the more reason to get a Novation forum here. That second link is like *nowhere*....there's not a decent place to share patches or help/contact any other users of these great synths. The Nova is sounding great, btw! Wink
