Is the Novation Mininova a good value for money?
The MiniNova is sort of a mini powerhouse because it can do so much in such a small package. It is one of the cheapest synths I’ve had the chance of reviewing, but it doesn’t feel cheap at all. It’s just a good overall synth which could sound a little better, but is generally a great value product.
Is the Mininova editor available as a plug in?
The MiniNova editor is available as a plug-in only, not as a standalone application. PLEASE FIND THE INSTALLERS AT THE BOTTOM OF THE RELEASE NOTES. This software package includes the latest Novation USB driver, MiniNova editor and MiniNova librarian. Updates firmware to 1157.
Which is better Yamaha Tyros 5 or Novation Mininova?

How big is the Novation Mininova sound system?
