It ships with 256 outstanding patches that you can tweak using five knobs - or completely warp with MoroderNova's eight touch-activated Animate buttons. MoroderNova also sports an onboard voice-tune effect as well as a classic vocoder. The net result is a powerhouse of a synth in a tidy, trim package.A powerful synth engine with great-sounding effectsNovation's MoroderNova has the beefiest synth engine ever put into such a compact synth. You get 14 waveforms (square, sine, sawtooth, pulse, and triangle, plus variations), 36 wavetables, plus 20 digital waveforms. Each of the three oscillators (per voice) sports Density/detune for fattening up sounds, Virtual Sync, and Hardness - which functions as an additional lowpass filter. Speaking of filters, MiniNova is fitted with 14 different types (you can run two simultaneously), six envelope generators, three LFOs, and a modulation matrix with 20 slots in which you can string synth engine modules together to create a sonic beast. Effects? Definitely. With MoroderNova, you can add up to five effects to each voice - that includes distortion, reverb, compression, EQ, chorus/phase, delay, and Novation's proprietary Gator effect.Expressive performance potentialNovation's MoroderNova has unique and powerful sound-shaping capabilities for such a compact keyboard. You get knobs, naturally, that let you tweak your sounds, but you can also "animate" sound using eight back-lit buttons that trigger modulations in the synth engine that warp your patches in real-time as you play. There's a large knob for filter cutoff so no matter what else you are doing, you always have instant control over the filter. MoroderNova also sports a 33-pattern arpeggiator, and you can use the eight buttons to jam with these patterns, creating completely new sequences in the process.Novation MoroderNova Limited Edition Synthesizer Features:Massively powerful mini-synth with UltraNova sound engineIncludes 30+ iconic patches created by Giorgio Moroder (Donna Summer, Top Gun, Scarface)Voice-tune and classic vocoder effectsTweak and warp your sounds in real-time with touch-activated Animate buttons256 amazing sounds onboard, instantly searchableLayer up to five effects per voiceComes with editing software and a software patch librarianRun guitars andother instruments though the vocoder and effectsAlso functions as a 37-key controller keyboard with MIDI I/OLimited Edition: only 500 have been made
