Powerful synth sound with a deep history
Nobody does synthesisers like we do. That's why everybody has used them.
Radiohead, Massive Attack, Orbital, Nine Inch Nails, Giorgio Moroder, Jean-Michel Jarre, Hudson Mohawk, alt-J and Arca.
That's just a handful of the artists who have used Novation synths. After all, we're the guys behind Bass Station and Supernova. Our design consultant is none other than Chris Huggett, the man who designed OSCar and WASP.
Synth heritage doesn't come richer than ours. Add to that our 23 years of innovation and expertise, and you've got the modern Novation synth range.
Check it out.
You tend to think 'I couldn't possibly compete with the big company stuff', but maybe you can and it's actually quite satisfying to have a piece of the market and have people say 'I prefer this, I like what you've done here'.

Peak
Our eight-voice desktop polyphonic synthesiser with three New Oxford Oscillators for each voice.
The oscillators sound completely analogue by being high-quality NCOs (Numerically-Controlled Oscillators), but gain the flexibility of the digital domain with 17 digital wavetables.
Peak has a resonant multi-mode analogue filter for each voice, and three distortion points in an analogue signal chain.
Circuit Mono Station
Circuit Mono Station is a scheming, manipulative little beast of a machine, with a deafening roar to be tamed. It’s infectious to use, quick to engage with and capable of some unpredictable and rather dangerous results.
Featuring three types of analogue distortion effects, a really nasty ring modulator, a girthy sub-oscillator and step automation for all 53 parameters, Circuit Mono Station sounds bloody disgusting. Having the same workflow as the Circuit sequencer and synth, it really is the potty-mouthed child of Novation.
Bass Station II
Our famous pure analogue monosynth, designed for bass then reworked to kick out a much bigger sound.
Harness two oscillators and a sub-oscillator, select between two exceptional-quality analogue filters and get creative using a step sequencer, pattern-based arpeggiator and powerful modulation section.
Bass Station II comes with 64 incredible preset sounds, but has space for 64 more and lets you archive and swap sounds whenever you like.

MiniNova
All the power of UltraNova in our simple and compact mini-keys synth.
Search for sounds as you perform, add five effects to 18 voices and use straightforward controls to delicately tweak or totally warp any sound in an instant.
MiniNova has 256 killer sounds onboard, but you can add 128 more and even use VocalTune™ to make your own voice into an instrument.
UltraNova
Our analogue-modelling synthesiser, based on the legendary Supernova II.
The advanced new synth engine in Ultranova is inspired by a classic, then enhanced by wavetable synthesis, even more powerful filters and an optimised effects engine that lets you put five epic effects on every sound.
Create while you perform more easily than ever before, using revolutionary new touch-sensitive controls and a built-in audio interface that lets you browse, tweak and save your sounds on the spot.
