Novation UltraNova Contest Update - We Have a Winner!

Hi everyone! I just wanted to let you all know that we have a winner for the UltraNova contest! Apologies for the delay in the announcement. The contest ended on January 19th, just before we were all hit by the NAMM storm. I want to thank everyone who entered. Novation tells me this was one of their best contests yet, with over 1600 entries! Go MATRIXSYNTH! :) Novation promoted the contest on their social channels, while I promoted it here on MATRIXSYNTH. That said, I am extremely happy to announce that the winner of the contest is a reader of the site! The winner does wish to remain anonymous, which I totally understand and respect, being the anonymous mr. matrix myself. :)

I want to thank Novation for hosting the contest and giving a chance for my readers to win a free Novation UltraNova. BTW, if you haven't already, be sure to check out my lengthy UltraNova review here. Novation offered to host the contest as a follow-up to the review.

Thank you Novation, and thank you to everyone who participated!
