Seen them live twice. Amazing band :)

Thanks for your comment. Novation rules!

Yep. Although I transposed some patches due to key range, they're completely internal sounds.

silentman0831 Thank you. Really impressed. Can't wait to get mine in the post ;)

Yes, Power Windows is one of my favorite XD

please read the specification section. global.novationmusic.com/synths/ultranova# For your reference, if you need full key, the one you have to choose is Ultranova. On the other hand, the one with mini key is called miniNova. I haven't felt any latency when I do pitch bend.

Jan Martin Ulvåg they look narrow as fuck in the video. i have large hands & fingers. and i already looked at the spec page.

They are full size and a nice Fatar keybed.. Far superior to the Korg keys.. I also have large hands and fingers and this keybed is great

Of course! though I don't know if you can tweak parameters using knob and fader of external controller...

Cool :) I would sit the Novation above the midi keyboard at gigs anyway so all the knobs and parameters will still be right in front of me :) Thanks for the help :)

The sound engine is exactly the same. Mininova misses the built in audio interface the Ultranova has, and the layout of the synth is vastly different, of course.

There's no favorite function on this synth. However, you can search patches by category and genre. You'd better sort patches with librarian software on PC for smooth select.

silentman0831 thank you for the info :) cheers

Quite different machines(I have both) The X-Station synth engine is nowhere as powerful as the Ultranova but does have more front panel controls. Also the X-Station is only available in 25, 49 and 61 key sizes.. The Ultra's 37 key size is a great compromise of range and portability

4:55 Get Wild / TM NETWORK, 5:36 Fukai Mori / Do As Infinity. Both are Japanese group.

+silentman0831 !!! Thank you !!!

+Derek Ferrell Thanks for comment! There's an article about patch compatibility. us.novationmusic.com/answerbase/are-ultranova-and-mininova-patches-compatible-on-either-synth

Thanks for the response and for the really helpful article. Still trying to decide between the Ultra and the Mini. Great video!

Yes! Do you like Rush? I'm a big fan of Rush.

Huge) I like them up until their 1989 era pretty much. And the track after that is early Dream Theater, another band I love :)

It's up to you! IMAO I don't buy mini key one since it's hard for me to play...

I bought the Ultranova haha I think it was the best option!

+ugirl2 Since this is single timbre synth, there's no kind of drum kit or drum machine. But it has some patches of drum parts, like snare drum, electro kick, or something like that.

yeah thats what im looking for just a beat to play to

You think so? but you can refine sound because this is synthesizer. Let me hear your performance. I'm looking forward to it!

I guess you have one don't you.He is just scratching the surface.

Peres Dixon sounds like church on a sunday. If you have an Ultra Nova and know what it can do, this is a bad Advert for this power house Synth. ROCK IT OR LEAVE IT

It's true have a look at other videos examples.
