NOVATION SUPERNOVA II
Owner's Manual

MODE SECTION The lower parameter is �Input/sw 2�. In this case with a value of Audio in. This parameter determines what the Input/sw 2 input is going to do. Use the lower Data knob to adjust this parameter. In the Audio in position the Input is configured to accept external audio signals. In the Switch position the input is configured to work as a Footswitch input. In this case a Footswitch that is normally open. In the Switch-I position the input is configured to work as a Footswitch input. In this case a sustain pedal that is normally closed. The range of this parameter is Audio in, Switch & Switch-I. This parameter is memorised as Global. Page 10 looks like so:

Pedal/sw 3

Pedal-R

The parameter is �Pedal/sw 3�. In this case with a value of Pedal-R. This parameter determines what the Pedal/sw 3 input is going to do. Use the higher Data knob to adjust this parameter. In the Pedal-R position, the input is configured to work as an Expression Pedal input & can mapped into any controller using the Pedal/breath parameter on page 4 of this menu. In this case an Expression Pedal with the control output on the ring of the pedal jack. In the Pedal-T position, the input is configured to work as an Expression Pedal input & can mapped into any controller using the Pedal/breath parameter on page 4 of this menu. In this case an Expression Pedal with the control output on the tip of the pedal jack. i.e. a Korg EXP2 Expression Pedal. In the Switch position the input is configured to work as a Footswitch input. In this case a Footswitch that is normally open. In the Switch-I position the input is configured to work as a Footswitch input. In this case a sustain pedal that is normally closed. The range of this parameter is Pedal-R, Pedal-T, Switch & Switch-I. This parameter is memorised as Global. Page 11 looks like so:

Vel sensing Knob mode

Hard Pickup

The higher parameter is �Vel sensing�. In this case with a value of Hard. This parameter alters the velocity curve of the Supernova II keyboard. Use the upper Data knob to adjust this parameter. This is global & applies to all modes. In the Hard position, large Velocity changes are required to create a big change in response. This is good for weighted & semi-weighted keyboard actions. In the Soft position, not so large Velocity changes are required to create a big change in response. This is good for cheaper keyboard actions. The range of this parameter is Hard & Soft. This parameter is memorised as Global. The lower parameter is �Knob mode�. In this case with a value of Pickup. This parameter determines if the values of Knob parameters jumps immediately to the actual position of the Knob as soon as it is turned or if the Knob has to pass �though� the value of the edited parameter before the knob starts editing the parameter. Use the lower Data knob to adjust this parameter. In the Normal position the value of the parameter being edited jumps to the value of the Knob as soon as a knob is turned. This is good when creating sounds as the parameters are always �Live�. In the Pickup position no change to the parameter being edited will take place until the Knob is turned so that the it has passed �through� the value of the edited parameter, thereby �picking it up�. The knob then becomes �live� & will start editing the parameter & will start to transmit the appropriate controller. The range of this parameter is Normal & Pickup.

NOTE:

When this parameter is set to �Pickup� mode no controller data will be sent & no edits to the parameter by Knob movements will occur until the Knob parameter has been picked up.
