NOVATION ULTRANOVA Demo Unit

via this auction

I think this is the first used one I've seen come up for auction.

"UltraNova is a Nova series analogue-modelling synthesizer with a powerful effects processor. It is a single-part synth taking the legendary Supernova II synth engine as a starting point and packing it with the latest technology. It now has brand new features including wavetable synthesis, even more powerful filters, a software editor and a revolutionary new touch-sense performance mode.

The 'Nova' family was born in 1998 with the Supernova, which was the first of a series of powerful synthesisers. These quickly became industry standard 'big-synths' which are still used by countless artists and sound designers.

* Single-part synth engine with up to 18 voices, 14 filter types, 36 wavetables and five effect slots
* Eight assignable touch-sensitive rotary controllers, with one large knob to instantly give you fine control of any parameter
* Touch and Tweak controls enable totally new sound-shaping and performance options: Trigger envelopes, LFOs, filters and effects just by touching the encoders
* Tried and tested, stage-ready 37-note keybed with aftertouch
* Bus power from USB
* 12-band vocoder (with included dynamic gooseneck mic), and loads of controls
* Free software plug-in editor gives you full visual editing control
* The included Patch Librarian lets you organise, store and share unlimited patches
* Built-in two-in, four-out USB audio interface - stream high-quality audio to and from a host computer and control your monitor mix, all from UltraNova
* Full connectivity for stage and studio.
* Balanced line-level and stereo S/PDIF outputs, plus MIDI In, Out and Thru ports"

Jupiter-4 Promars Duet (Improvisation)

YouTube via maisonvague | December 16, 2010 | 4 likes, 0 dislikes

"Before beginning a new project I often start with a series of improvisations based on ideas I'm interested in working with. I then study these improvisations, learn what works, what doesn't, and then refine them into more finished compositions. This video is a recording of such an improvisation. It is a sort of journey... searching... finding... accepting... rejecting... embracing... then turning away. It's all there: the good, the bad, and the ugly.

It was recorded in one take, with the Jupiter-4 arpeggiating a B-flat minor chord prior to starting the camera (although I didn't check to see if the pitch was really B-flat minor! The Jupiter was drifting really badly the day I recorded this).

Apologies in advance for the length. It's a bit too long. I considered fading it out after around 6:40... but then decided to just let it run on until the end for any brave souls out there willing to sacrifice ten minutes of life watching it. It's kind of nice to hear the theme come back, a bit more solid than before - except I forgot to disengage the High Pass Filter on the Jupiter, which is a pity... but with improvisation, there's no turning back!

Hope you enjoy it!
