| I love my Nova, it's a great synth, great FX, great filters, awesome little machine. All the knobs send to midi too, so you can use it as a controller for your soft synths too. There are tons of patches available for download over the net. A great buy, it won't let you down. |

| I love my Nova too. The Vengeance soundset is awesome but with such a great interface it's easy to program your own sounds. It's great for all kinds of sounds. Unison and VCO style oscillator mode in the newest os are really cool. |

| yes, the nova is a little beast. It can produce drum sounds, leads, pads verry well. There are so manny reviews no need to mention the power of nova.:thepirate |

| is there much difference between the nova and supernova? I realise the supernova has more voices and a few more options, but is the sound very different? (asking people who have played with both) |

*faps* My buddy/co-producer Vadim has Nova. It is the . I seriously love that thing, I always joke about borrowing it for a while... but one of these days I will.
You made a wise purchase off the ebay. :D |

Supernova 2 is pretty different than Supernova 1/Nova. SN1 and Nova are pretty similar. SN2 has 42 band vocoder/an amazing OSC section with a lot of fine tuning parameters - not found in Virus or Q - it's serious, a lot of features here/IO digital possibilities/powerful programable arpeggiator including to send arps via MIDI out/powerful FM algorithm with 3 operators (almost an DX21 with its 4 operators - other synths only have 2 operators) etc. The sound from SN1/SN2/Nova have the same character (Oberheim sound) and a liquid filter (I like it), but the filter is very different than found on Virus B/C (MACHO filter). |

| I hated my supernova... honestly, in my opinion, the only hardware synth worth having around is virus. |

It's not the synth. It's the user.

By your request, here's the few demo sounds i posted earlier on another Nova topic:
http://www.mkdr.net/novademo/
Nothing special, just few basic sounds to show off the famous character of the synth(no additional fx or eq or anything). Theres also a clip with all sounds from Nova and Drumstation(+2 drumsamples), but those sounds are processed with outboard stuff..
:)
The range of sounds you can do with Nova is awesome and the inputs are very usefull if you have some other synths to hook thru it. |
