Novation Peak Synth - Eight Voice Analogue / Digital Polyphonic Module

Product Overview

The Eight Voice Novation Polysynth with Three New Oxford Oscillators

The Best of Both Worlds
The Novation Peak is an eight-voice polyphonic hybrid analogue/digital synthesizer featuring three of the New Oxford Oscillators for each voice. By being high-quality NCO's (Numerically Controlled Oscillators) the oscillators sound completely analogue but gain the flexibility of the digital realm with 17 digital wavetables. They are able to cross-modulate in a recursive loop allowing them to be a linear FM source.


Analogue Where It Matters



Digital Where It Counts
Peak has a resonant multi-mode analogue filter for each voice and three distortion points for each voice in an analogue signal chain - pre-filter, post-filter and global. It is also capable of receiving polyphonic after-touch giving you even more options for expression. The FX section includes reverb, delay and a chorus along with an on-board arpeggiator.


Create New Sounds from Scratch



Refine Them to Perfection
Novation have also added a 16-slot modulation matrix with 16 direct assignments in the main controls, intuitively arranged for patch design and sound editing. We have three ADSR envelopes and two LFOs for each voice and two animate buttons to give live performers one-touch transformation of patches.


Connect to Almost Anything



Vintage?…Modular?…Game On!
Peak can also connect to modular gear via CV input and has MIDI I/O for standard 5-Pin DIN MIDI connections. It can also be connected to your Mac or PC where you can store and edit unlimited patches.

There is also a stand for Peak available HERE.

• A colossal amount of distortion: Three distortion points for each voice – pre-filter, post-filter and global – in an analogue signal chain.

• Control expression: Peak is capable of receiving polyphonic aftertouch, which puts expression right at your fingertips.

• Cross-modulate oscillators: The three New Oxford Oscillators for each voice can become a linear FM source using either the analogue-sounding NCOs (Numerically-Controlled Oscillators) or digital wavetables. They are also able to cross-modulate in a recursive loop.

• Huge modulation system: 16-slot modulation matrix and 16 direct assignments controlled from the front panel, cleverly arranged for intuitive patch design and sound editing. Three ADSR envelopes and two LFOs for each voice.

• Easily switch modulations: Two animate buttons give live performers instant one-touch transformation of patches.

• Mind-blowing sounds on-board: Reverb, delay and chorus at your disposal, and there’s also an arpeggiator.

• Connect to hardware and software: Connect and sync to your music software and MIDI-compatible hardware. CV modulation input used to slot together modular systems.
