New In Nova 2
Nova Version 2.0 software introduces a number of new and improved features. If you are
familiar with Eclipse, then use this list to locate more information on each topic. You can find
instructions on how to install the new version of Nova software on Page 503.
Shelving and High/Low Pass Filters for Parametric EQ
The upper and lower bands of parameteric EQ can now be switched to a shelf or a high/low
pass filter, see Page 141.
New Stereo Channel Operation
Configuration of mono and stereo input channels and mix busses is now very simple:
Any input channel may be mono or stereo LR. This decision is made when you patch inputs
to the control surface (from the PATCH IN grid) allowing you to decide “on the fly” whether
input channels are mono or stereo, see Page 238.
Any mix bus (including Matrices) may be mono, stereo LR or stereo LRC. This decision is
made when you assign channel types from the PERSONAL CONSOLE BUILDER, see Page
225.
Channels feature a true stereo dynamics section and Balance/Width control. The LR or LRC
components may be deployed to the Smart Panel in order to edit the left, right and centre,
see Page 184.
New Functionality for the Fader Strip Pots
The rotary control (pot) on the Fader strips can now be switched between one of the three
modes: Gain, Pan or User:
• Gain – can control either analogue Gain or digital Trim.
• Pan – adjusts left/right pan on mono channels and balance/width on stereo channels.
It can also switch between dependent panning (to all stereo busses) and independent
panning (to the selected bus) making it easy to setup independent pan for Aux sends.
• User – can be assigned to any variable parameter – for example, EQ Gain,
Compressor Threshold, etc.
For details on Pot. configurations and assigning the User pot, please see Page 120.
Personal Mix Memories for Auxes
A “Personal Mix” saves the send levels, panning and routing for a particular Aux. This allows
you to save a different monitor mix for each musician working on the show. For example, if
you have different drummers who work on different nights of the week, you can save a
Personal Mix for each performer, see Page 387.
New Linking Methods: Smart Link and Fast Link
Channel linking can now be configured from the console, using Smart Link mode, as an
alternative to the Link Channel display, see Page 411.
Fast Link creates a temporary link group in order to update a parameter across several
channels on the fly. This can be quicker than using Copy and Paste. See Page 418.
