Analog Physical Modeling Engine with multiple synthesis and oscillator types, Each oscillator type has flexible LFO and ADSR routing plus unique Texture and Mod controls that work as follows:
Multi-saw
Texture, control adds sub-oscillator
Mod, layers multiple sawtooth waves
Pulse
Texture, changes pitch of 2nd square wave
Mod, change pulse width
Oscillator Sync
Texture, changes pitch and tone of OSC2
Mod, sets pitch change amount
Ring Modulation
Texture, changes pitch of OSC1
Mod, changes pitch of OSC2
Frequency Modulation
Texture, sets Modulation amount
Mod, changes pitch of the Modulator
?Onboard effects processor with five types add depth to your sound
The effect types are: OFF (effect bypass,) Delay, VCM Phaser, VCM Chorus/Flanger and Distortion
?8-note polyphony allows complex chords and pads or switch to mono Mode for fat synth bass or solo leads

MiniNova is a compact, super-cool studio and live synth with the same sound engine as its big brother; UltraNova. It comes with 256 incredible onboard sounds that you can tweak with five knobs, or totally warp with eight 'animate' buttons. It has up to 18 voices with as many as five synth effects on each sound. MiniNova also has an onboard VocalTuneTM effect as well as a classic vocoder so you can recreate iconic vocal sounds from hip hop, urban and electronic music.
