ABOUT THIS MANUAL
We don’t know whether you’ve got years of experience with electronic keyboards, or if this
is your first synth. In all probability, you’re somewhere between the two. So we’ve tried to
make this manual as helpful as possible for all types of user, and this inevitably means more
experienced users will want to skip over certain parts of it, while relative novices will want
to avoid certain parts of it until they’re confident they’ve mastered the basics.
However, there are a few general points useful to know about before you continue reading
this manual. We’ve adopted some graphical conventions within the text, which we hope all
types of user will find helpful in navigating through the information to find what they need to
know quickly:
Abbreviations, conventions, etc.
As the four rotary controls in the PERFORM area of the control panel are referred to
throughout the manual, we’ve abbreviated them to RCn, where n is a number between 1
and 4, referring to the control in question.
Where top panel controls or rear panel connectors are referred to, we’ve used a number
thus: [x] to cross-reference to the top panel diagram, and thus: {x} to cross-reference to the
rear panel diagram. (See page 5 and page 6 )
We’ve used BOLD CAPS to name top panel controls or rear panel connectors. We’ve
used LCD dot-matrix text to denote text which appears on the LCD at the
beginning of each parameter description and within the parameter tables, but Bold to
indicate this text within the main manual paragraphs.
Tips
These do what it says on the tin: we include bits of advice, relevant to the topic
being discussed that should simplify setting up the MiniNova to do what you want.
It’s not mandatory you follow them, but generally they should make life easier.
Extra Info
These are additions to the text of interest to the more advanced user and can
generally be avoided by the novice. They are intended to provide a clarification or
explanation of a particular area of operation.
Performance Parameter
P
MiniNova has a fantastic degree of flexibility in tailoring sounds, as you will see in
the second part of this manual where each individual parameter available in the
menu system is described. However, to avoid navigating menus during live
performance, the most useful and commonly-needed parameters are immediately available
for adjustment by the four rotary controls in the PERFORM area of the control panel. We
have clearly indicated these parameters within the parameter descriptions.
WHAT’S IN THE BOX?
The MiniNova has been carefully packed in the factory and the packaging was designed to
withstand rough handling. Should the unit appear to have been damaged in transit, do not
discard any of the packing material and notify your music dealer.
Save all the packing materials for future use if you ever need to ship the unit again.
Please check the list below against the contents of the packaging. If any items are missing
or damaged, contact the Novation dealer or distributor where you purchased the unit.
• MiniNova synthesiser
• Gooseneck microphone
• DC power supply unit (PSU)
• USB cable
• Software download card
Registering your MiniNova
You can register your MiniNova online using the registration card. You will then be able to
download the additional software you are entitled to as a MiniNova purchaser.
Power requirements
The MiniNova is shipped with a 9 V DC, 900 mA power supply. The centre pin of the
coaxial connector is the positive (+ve) side of the supply. The MiniNova can either be
powered by this AC-to-DC mains adaptor, or by the USB connection to a computer. To
obtain the best possible audio performance from the MiniNova we recommend using the
supplied adaptor.
There are two versions of the PSU, your MiniNova will be supplied with the one appropriate
to your country. The PSU comes with detachable adaptors; use the one that fits your
country’s AC outlets. When powering the MiniNova from the mains PSU, please ensure
your local AC supply is within the range of voltages required by the adaptor – i.e., 100 to
240 VAC - BEFORE you plug it into the mains.
We recommend you only use the supplied PSU. Failure to do so will invalidate your
warranty. Power supplies for your Novation product can be purchased form your music
dealer if you have lost yours.
If you power the MiniNova via the USB connection you should be aware that
although the USB specification agreed by the IT industry states a USB port should
be able to supply 0.5 A at 5 V, some computers - particularly laptops – are unable
to supply this current. When powering the MiniNova from a laptop’s USB port, it is strongly
recommended that the laptop is powered from AC mains rather than its internal battery.

Top view – controls
1. 37-note (3 octaves) keyboard with velocity sensing.
2. PITCH and MOD wheels: The PITCH wheel will return to the centre position
when released.
SELECT/EDIT section
3. Custom 2-row x 8-character LCD dot matrix display for patch selection and
menu access. The LCD also has a bargraph meter showing audio input signal
level, tempo indication in BPM and other status information.
4. TYPE/GENRE selector: Use this to select a subset of available patches.
5. SORT switch: allows you to order your set of patches by patch number or
alphabetically by name.
6. DATA detented rotary control: Used in patch selection, and to alter parameter
values within menus.
7. PAGE I and H buttons: these are used to step forwards and backwards
between menu pages.
8. MENU/BACK button: Press to enter menu system; within the menu system,
pressing again will jump back to the previous menu level. A ‘long’ press (> 1
sec) will exit the menu system entirely.
9. OK button: Used within the menu system for navigation (goes to next menu
level), and to confirm data entry.
10. SAVE button: Used to save alterations to patches.
11. Patch I and H : dedicated buttons to scroll through the currently available
patches. Pressing both buttons simultaneously for at least one second enters
DEMO mode.
PERFORM section
12. Rotary controls: 4 rotary “Tweak” controls for parameter adjustment. The
function of each control is determined by the setting of the PERFORM ROW
selector [13]. (Use of a rotary control in the manual text is indicated by ‘RCn’,
where n is the number of the control; e.g., ‘RC1’ refers to rotary control 1).
13. Perform Row selector: This 6-way switch determines the functions of the
four rotary controls [12]. An LED indicates the currently selected row, and the
parameters then available for adjustment are printed on the MiniNova’s top
panel. Moving the switch allows you to select any row of the table printed on
the panel. The first two rows assign the Tweak controls to parameters which
have been factory-selected by the Novation programming team for each Patch,
giving you immediate access to the most useful and striking sonic variations.
14. FILTER: this is a large rotary control intended to aid more expressive
performance when playing live. It always adjusts Filter 1’s cut-off frequency.
PAD section
15. PADS 1 to 8: a set of eight backlit, multicolour, pressure-sensitive pads,
which may be used in two primary ways – Animate or Arpeggiate. Additionally,
in conjunction with the FAVORITE button [17], they may be used as “Quick
Load” buttons to recall preferred patches.
16. ANIMATE/ARPEGGIATE switch: A 2-position switch (spring-loaded to
return-to-centre), which assigns the pads [15] to act as Animate controls or
Arpeggiator pads.
17. FAVORITE button: used to store and recall preferred patches in conjunction
with the eight pads [15].
18. HOLD button: modifies the action of a pad [15] in Animate mode by “locking”
it in an “On” state.
ARP section
19. ON: backlit button to switch the Arpeggiator on and off. When selected ‘On’,
the eight pads [15] enter Arpeggiator mode and the Arpeggiator LED in the
Pads section illuminates.
20. LATCH button: applies the Arpeggiator effect to the last note(s) played
continuously, until a subsequent key is pressed. LATCH can be pre-selected
so it is effective as soon as the Arpeggiator is enabled.
21. TEMPO control: sets the tempo of the Arpeggiator pattern being played. An
adjacent LED blinks to give a visual indication of the tempo, and the actual
BPM value is displayed on the LCD.
Misc
22. Dynamic Mic Input: an XLR socket for the connection of the supplied
gooseneck microphone, or alternative dynamic microphone (i.e., a mic not
requiring phantom power to operate). The mic can be used with the MiniNova’s
vocoder and VocalTune features, or routed to the audio outputs. This input is
overridden when a jack plug is plugged in to EXT IN {8} on the rear panel.
23. MASTER VOLUME: the level control for the main audio outputs and the
headphone output.
24. OCTAVE + and – buttons: these transpose the keyboard up or down one
octave each time they are pressed. Associated multicolour LEDs confirm a
transposition has been applied.
