Review: Sorprendente la calidad del sonido Sonidos increibles y bancos de sonido accesibles desde la web. Potente sintetizador con sonidos imitando los analogicos El Arpegiador fenomenal Un buen equipo Review: I bought one of these back around 2014 or so and enjoyed it, it was one of my very many G.A.S. (Gear Acquisition Syndrome) purchases. Fast forward to 2017, I bought a motorcycle and sold off a bunch of my gear to help pay for the bike, the Mini Nova was a piece of gear I tearfully let go of. At the time I mostly just dabbled at synths so I was barely using the Mini Nova. Fast forward to now. After a lot of frustration at trying to sequence music with a DAW, I discovered the fun of sequencing synths in a "DAW-less" setup. I've dug out the few synths I kept, and bought two synthesizers from Modal Electronics. To avoid going on a further tangent, I sent both synths back, and realized I had enough refunded money to get another Mini Nova. I'm not selling this one. When I had my first Mini Nova, I was in awe at it's capabilities, and now that I've spent a lot more time tweaking different types of hardware and software synths, the Mini Nova continues to impress. I won't go into what the synth can do. Head to YouTube and watch some videos if you want a demo of what this little powerhouse can do. My main two reasons for scoring this synth so high are: 1. I find it's controls and workflow intuitive and 2. It sounds great. A lesser reason is this synth is fully polyphonic, and it's price tag puts it in competition with just a few other poly synths and a myriad of monophonic synths. To touch briefly on the Modal Electronics synths... One was a Skulpt. A great sounding synth that is cheaper and seemingly as featured packed as the Mini Nova, with a seemingly intuitive control layout, it frustrated me to no end. All it did was flash it's LEDs at me. I could almost never get the Skulpt's control app for tablet/smartphone to connect to the Skulpt. So all I had for feedback other than listening was blinking LEDs. If I did something wrong on the Skulpt, I had no way of telling what I did. When both the Skulpt and the other synth I had bought, a Craft Synth 2.0, kept crashing, I sent them back. Dealing with those made me appreciate the Mini Nova's controls so much more. The Mini Nova has a screen that shows you numerical values as you turn knobs! Such a simple feature, yet dealing with the ME synths has made me realize how I took it for granted. Furthermore, while some features of the synth, such as LFO's and patching, do require you to menu dive a bit, there's enough knobs to tweak the synth's sound, in both subtle and dramatic ways without needing to look at the screen. The toggle switch to the right of the synth dictates what the four small knobs do, and the text on them is clear enough that I don't have to look at the screen. But having the screen there is so wonderful. Moving on to sound, I'll compare this to one of my old synths, a first generation Korg Minilogue. Great sounding synth, even more hands-on than the Mini Nova. There's one nuance to the Minilogue's tone that makes me glad I've got the Mini Nova back in my arsenal, now that I'm playing synths so much more. Nearly all of the Minilogue's tones have a metallic edge in them. Sometimes that's preferable, so I'm not griping. But when it comes to dialing in a warm, smooth tone, the Mini Nova does so with ease, as well as edgy metallic tones or otherwise. Put simply in another way, until now, the Minilogue was my most tonally versatile synth. The Mini Nova trumps it easily in that department. Oh, and unlike so many other synths, the Mini Nova has an ENTIRE bank of BLANK presets!! I've used numerous digital synths that are fully loaded with presets. If you want to save a tone you dialed up from scratch, you need to delete a preset on said synths. Not so with the MIni Nova! I'm so glad that Novation realized tone tweakers like myself would want to dial in their own tones, while also enjoying some of the preset tones! I would recommend the Mini Nova to synth players of all experience levels. As an absolute beginner myself back when I bought my first Mini Nova, I was still comfortable enough with it to start creating my own tones from scratch on day one. While I've got a lot more experience in synth tweaking now, I still don't use the Mini Nova to it's fully capacity, so as long as one doesn't mind the digital nature of this synth, I'd even recommend this to an experienced synth player. I feel the Mini Nova is very unique with the features I've outlined: Very powerful and flexible, yet friendly and approachable to new synth players. Plus it's hardware feels rock solid. While I understand not many people like the mini keys, I don't mind them and they beat the touch pads found on other synths! ## Features - manufacturer: Novation - Item Trademark: NOVATION - Item Weight: pounds, pounds, 8.95, 8.95 - Item Category: Musical Instruments ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B009AK3NDW | | Body Material | Guitar | | Brand Name | Novation | | Color | Blue | | Connector Type | MIDI, USB | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (250) | | Finish Type | Painted or Lacquered | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00815301000136 | | Included Components | MiniNova synthesiser, Gooseneck microphone, USB cable,12V PSU | | Item Dimensions | 7.5 x 56 x 25 centimeters | | Item Type Name | Synthsizer | | Item Weight | 2.72 kg | | Manufacturer | Novation | | Material | Plastic | | Model Name | MiniNova | | Model Number | AMS-MININOVA | | Part Number | NOVSYNTHH02UKEU | | Set Name | Yes | | UPC | 815301000136 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | | Warranty Description | Manufacturer Warranty | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Novation - **Colour:** Blue - **Item dimensions L x W x H:** 7.5 x 56 x 25 centimeters - **Material:** Plastic - **Model name:** MiniNova ## Images ![Novation MiniNova Synthesizer NOVSYNTH02UKEU - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71LzyTXnrvL.jpg) ![Novation MiniNova Synthesizer NOVSYNTH02UKEU - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/6122Dl7mYOL.jpg) ![Novation MiniNova Synthesizer NOVSYNTH02UKEU - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71InYhrbQzL.jpg) ![Novation MiniNova Synthesizer NOVSYNTH02UKEU - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/717NMeMtjTL.jpg) ![Novation MiniNova Synthesizer NOVSYNTH02UKEU - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61w7Wx-rBmL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Did anyone buy the one with the bigger keys? $199 extra for bigger keys?? Worth it?** A: Yes, it really worth.... Bigger keys let you play it as a regular keyboard. Mininova`s are too small **Q: Do i need to run this through my computer via midi? or can i use it stand alone? sick of having to use programs, just want a plug and play synth.** A: It's completely stand alone. However there is no sequencer on board. It is not a workstation. great synth though. It does have a fantastic software editor that makes programing it very very easy but you do not have to use the software editor you can totally programme it by hand. **Q: My son composes music for his video games. He is looking for more than 8 bit sounds (no idea what that means) Would this synth be a good fit?** A: This is a professional synth. There are 100's of sounds. Check the Novation website. I thinks it's 36 bit data. He will fiddle this synth for years. **Q: does this mininova come with the microphone pictured for vocoder input?** A: yes, it comes with the microphone pictured. I myself haven't used the mic so I can't say anything about the quality of it. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by R***R on 22 October 2018* Sorprendente la calidad del sonido Sonidos increibles y bancos de sonido accesibles desde la web.

What an awesome synthesizer.. Unbeatable synth for this price range. Delivers crystal clear sounds with lots of live modulation controls. Very good bass voices, leads, pads, arpeggiators.. The good thing is, they have been releasing new sound patches then and then. So, whenever we need more presets, we can just download and install them.. If you are looking only for synth voices and you don't need piano or any realistic instruments, This is bang for the buck. Only thing is, the keys are small.. but its ok to play with these keys. It provides good look for the Instrument. ## Frequently Bought Together - Novation MiniNova Analogue Modelling Compact 37 Mini-key Synth – Tough, compact, powerful mini-synth with pitch-correcting effect vocoder, 256 onboard sounds and five effects per voice layering Blue - Dunlop MXR M222 TALK BOX w/4 Cables - D'Addario Accessories Guitar Pedal Power Supply - DC 9V Power Cord - 9V Power Supply for Guitar Pedals - Pedalboard Power Supply - PW-CT-9V --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pl/products/339428421-novation-mininova-synthesizer-novsynth02ukeu](https://www.desertcart.pl/products/339428421-novation-mininova-synthesizer-novsynth02ukeu) --- *Product available on Desertcart Poland* *Store origin: PL* *Last updated: 2026-06-04*
