Hey peps:

I'm buying a synth reeaal soon and it's probably goin to be novation nova vs k-station. I know the first thing out of your mouth is try both and see which works for you. I unfortunatley can't try em =( So im relying on ya'll!

Again, i'm trying to make some kewl trance lines to add to my tracks.

Not taking the price difference in hand, what can the nova offer that is so much better than the k?

Thanks =)

Andrew

nova is multitimbral, and i think k-station is not. hence you�d have more parts to play with from the nova.

The biggest difference is that the K-station is monotimbral and has FM. The Nova has 6 parts and more polyphony but lacks the fm. That's the only differences I know about.. Personally I would go for the Nova

'dems the differences! The FM is nice but it's an effect for the oscillator... not even TRUELLY modeling FM, (kinda like the waldorf uq)... it's nice but it's not very editable.

more parts more voices in the nova... expanded editability... GET THE NOVA. It's brilliant and not too much more for the power.

nicer filters? I'd bet my firstborn they're the same. ASM synth engine in both, no?

Are those differences really big? I've never touched hardware so... ;P

I just love the layout of the K!!

they don't sound the same to me, K-station sounds fuller and richer from the off. Better UI (a proper source mixer!) but less features, I'd still take the K over the Nova any day, regardless of parts/voices.

One semi-major issue:

With the K station, could i pop in the power cord and throw on some headphones and go (for saving my own sounds)? Or would i need any more junk? Since I travel alot, that would be great.

Thanks,

Andrew
