Novation Ultranova: The Sound Designer's Dream

The Ultranova was designed to push the limits of sound design. With three oscillators, noise generator, and ring modulation, it allows you to create rich, layered sounds. Its classic waveforms and state-of-the-art wavetables offer endless creative possibilities, from classic to totally innovative. The two routable multi-mode filters and a 20-slot modulation matrix, with 6 envelopes and 3 LFOs, ensure almost unlimited programming capabilities to sculpt your sound to perfection.

Polyphony and Advanced Control for Your Music Production.

With a polyphony of up to 18 voices, the Novation Ultranova handles complex synth lines and rich chords flawlessly. The intuitive interface offers direct control over the powerful synthesis engine for deep sound editing. Shape your sounds as you like, then perfect them with the 5-way multi-effect processor. The powerful modulation matrix lets you connect any source to any destination, giving you the freedom to create almost any sound you can imagine.

Touch n' Tweak: Expressiveness and Performance

Ultranova's patches are not static: each is configured with up to eight parameters, which can be modified or completely transformed using the touch-sensitive encoders. Tap to trigger subtle movements in your sound or to radically transform it into something completely different. This "Touch n' Tweak" feature makes the Ultranova an exceptional tool for both live performance and studio sound exploration.
