Featuring a goosneck mic for the vocoder and vocaltune effects, 256 editable onboard sounds, eight animate buttons for performance enhancements and more....

    this is good ,well worth the price !

  • @mynmyself
    @mynmyself Před 11 lety

    yes, it has midi in and out. You can totally use any midi controllr with this,you could use even an mpc or fader controller, and of course, a bigger midi keyboard

    @chrissteenberg Před 11 lety

    It may seem that way but in fact they are already moving quite briskly out of the warehouses. I ordered mine two days ago and it is already sold out where I purchased it and I have seen it on many wish lists for this Christmas already. All in all things are not always what they seem.

    I hope one day USB midi will work instrument to instrument instead of connecting to a computer

    @CashewBestofNuts Před 10 lety

    On many synths you have to model the oscillation to make a kick snare or other hits

  • @chrissteenberg
    @chrissteenberg Před 11 lety

    The performance controller/midi full size keys are your friend and then you have full size keys . I am going to be using my Korg M50 with my mininova when it arrives on thursday.

    Hi DV247 TV,
    I bought the MiniNova, and i'm very happy with it!
    But i have a question! If i use Ableton , i have a VST-plugin made for the MiniNova!
    Very good, but can i use the sounds that are on the MiniNova IN Ableton?
    Because i don't see how, please let me know something! :D thanks!

    Would you recommend this as a first buy?

  • @Synthematix

    yea true! wonder if this ketboard has some sort of quantising, and bpm control?

  • @djyucatec
    @djyucatec Před 12 lety

    I like it---yep

  • @ElmoDkeyBrown
    @ElmoDkeyBrown Před 11 lety

    It is a hardware synth, the sounds it outputs are from its engine, its not a VST
    it would be compatible with FL
    And it can be used an a midi output
    Hope this helps :)

    @slipknot9157 Před 9 lety +1

    Im totally new to synthesizers, and am thinking of buying this. I noticed there's two jack imputes on the back. could you use a single jack straight from the synth into an amp ?

    • @robeen46
      @robeen46 Před 9 lety

      yes i use it that way too, works pretty well when im creating sounds back home.

  • @MEGASYNTH1
    @MEGASYNTH1 Před 12 lety

    If you you guys make a Reason Rack Extension to accompany this synthesizer as well as the software editor you are already making I am buying this synth immediately! Please consider it!

  • @xTobreex
    @xTobreex Před 11 lety

    I currently have a microkorg and using this for live performance. Is the mini nova worth the buy or
    should i just stick to the micro korg thanks please get back to me! paydays in 2!

  • @TomZentra
    @TomZentra Před 12 lety

    A shortcoming of the UltraNova is its limited display. To improve the quantity of information instantly available to a user requires either designing an expensive subsystem and using a large display, or a simple design with the genre type and a table with performance and editing control.
    What I do not like about the MiniNova is its small keys as on the miniKorg. The mini keys were the reason I sold my miniKorg, and they are the reason I am not in a rush to buy the MiniNova.

  • @WhiteFrequencyNoise

  • @aristocratmusic
    @aristocratmusic Před 11 lety

    I think the idea of being able to access certain sounds a little easier is pretty clever and a lot of companies do it.. but the giant knob is pretty ridiculous, hahaha.

  • @richardpenanet

    Does the MiniNova has the same patches as the UltraNova? I am particularly interested in the natural patches. Thanks.

    What I'd like to know and no one has been able to tell me is where do I get this mysterious software editor?? I went to Novation website and the only thing I was able to download was a MiniNova Librarian. So... Does anybody know where is this so called mininova software editor?
    Thanks

    Can you get a good electric piano sound out of it?

  • @TheGazzadj
    @TheGazzadj Před 6 lety

    Is this an actual standalone synth or does it need to go through a computer and DAW to hear sound or has it got external speakers???

    • @paupau93
      @paupau93 Před 6 lety +1

      TheGazzadj stand alone. I believe it can be hooked up to a computer but it won't work exactly like a controller.

  • @Synthematix

    that way one cable will do both in and out

  • @TheDarkDanny4
    @TheDarkDanny4 Před 8 lety

    Do you have to have a computer to mess around with this thing or can you still do most of that without one?

  • @RCmies
    @RCmies Před 8 lety

    I want to get this thing but I don't know what program I can use with it. Does FL Studio work?

    • @davidholmes3776
      @davidholmes3776 Před 8 lety +1

      You'll be able to sequence mininova from any DAW you fancy via midi (it's got din I/o & USB midi) I think the audio will have to be recorded into DAW separately via your audio interface.

    • @FlorisKeys
      @FlorisKeys Před 9 lety

      Viplounger Nope, but why would you want that? You can buy any 100€ midi-keyboard that plays much better than this fragile keyboard.

    • @jeevespreston
      @jeevespreston Před 9 lety +1

      Viplounger Yes, you can... the Mininova has MIDI in and out, as does the Nord Rack 2, you just need the right cables...

  • @Morne555
    @Morne555 Před 11 lety

    theres a bigger version called the ultranova with bigger keys and a better layout. The mininova is just a smaller and cheaper version.

    Why are certain sounds called "pads".....?

    • @RIVERVIEWIAM

      BlatendCrude I'm not sure, but I would assume because of their softer and less sudden envelope style and sound

    Wie auf dieser Seite d2xhy469pqj8rc.cloudfront.net/sites/default/files/novation/downloads/4635/mininova-userguidede.pdf
    beschrieben, habe ich mininova Librarian installiert.
    Es kommt kein Ton. Ich benutze also kein Midigerät, sondern nur unsren neuen Laptop mit Windows 10.
    Angeschlossen oder verbunden ist der Mininova als nur mit dem Laptop und der Steckdose.
    ob vielleicht der Realtek-HD-Audio-Manager falsch eingestellt ist?
    Soll hinten am Gerät exit-DC oder USB eingestellt sein?
    Was habe ich bis jetzt nicht beachtet?

      yeah, for like live performance. Can I hook it up to a guitar amp?

      @tommyd8041 Před 10 lety

      idk about a guitar amp but I use a little DI box that plugs into a PA.

    • @Fireblaze15
      @Fireblaze15 Před 10 lety

      If you hooked it up to a guitar amp. It might ruin it. The guitar amp is different from a bass amp. Playing a synth through a guitar amp is actually quite fun and interesting. If you turn on the distortion it gets even crazier. Like Skinny Puppy sounds.

  • @rockhead11

    I know this was made 7 years ago but having genres is beyond cheesy.....it’s actually annoying. some of these are already laughably outdated. Is “dubstep “ really a classic genre? 🤓
    That being said though, I feel that Novation makes excellent products.

    • @mountainstartemple6041

    This looks fairly disasterous for Novation.

  • @peterord
    @peterord Před 11 lety

    This is the exact opposite of the Korg Krome review. The voiceover was well-recorded, but the synth sounded really cheap, tinny and trebly. You need to use musicians to demonstrate an instrument's capabilities, not an amateur "noodler". Sorry, still love your cannel, anyway.

  • @SPAZZOID100
    @SPAZZOID100 Před 11 lety

    Basically a rip-off of the micro korg

  • @david130653
    @david130653 Před 11 lety

    Sonically, this thing may be the best thing since sliced bread (not heard one so I don't know), however, for editing and accessibility, the Roland Gaia and the new Studiologic Sledge leave this synth looking stupid. I am fed up of "performance matrix" setups. You can see the guy trying to demonstrate the VCA envelope and twiddling away trying to get the knob to latch to the programmed value - yuck. Try doing that live and you look stupid.
    As for the mini keys, don't get me started!

  • @bjcsupertortoise
