help Novation Peak FAQ
Is the Novation Peak analog or digital?
The Novation Peak is a hybrid polysynth: it uses Oxford Oscillators controlled digitally, then runs through an analog multimode filter and analog distortion stages. That design gives it wavetable flexibility while keeping an analog signal path character.
How many voices does the Novation Peak have?
The Peak is an 8-voice polyphonic desktop synthesizer. Each voice has 3 oscillators, which makes it strong for pads, stacked leads, and complex bass patches.
Does the Novation Peak have a keyboard?
No. Peak is a desktop module, so it needs MIDI or USB control from a keyboard, sequencer, or DAW. Novation later released Summit, a related 16-voice keyboard synth with a larger panel.
What kind of effects are built into the Novation Peak?
Peak includes onboard effects such as reverb, delay, and chorus, plus modulation options from LFOs and envelopes. The effects are important because many Peak patches are designed as complete sounds rather than dry oscillator presets.
