The Filter Resonance control (F1Res) affects both filters, regardless of which filteris currently selected for adjustment.Edit menu - Submenu 5: VoiceThe MiniNova is a multi-voice, polyphonic synthesizer, which basically means you can playchords on the keyboard, and every note you hold down will sound. Each note is termeda ‘voice’, and the MiniNova’s DSP engine is sufficiently powerful to ensure that you willalways run out of fingers before you run out of voices! However, if you are controllingthe MiniNova from a MIDI sequencer, it is theoretically possible to run out (there are amaximum of 18 voices internally). Although this is likely to happen only rarely, users mayoccasionally observe this phenomenon, which is termed ‘voice stealing’.The alternative to polyphonic voicing is mono. With mono voicing, only one note sounds ata time; pressing a second key while holding the first down will cancel the first and play thesecond – and so on. The last note played is always the only one that you hear. All the early
