About Novation
Novation’s main mission is to help artists shape and express their own sound. In other words, it’s about empowering electronic music producers to unleash their creativity in the world of music production.
Since 1993, when Novation’s first iconic synth, the Bass Station, was born, they haven’t stopped striving to lead the way in sound creation for electronic music. Perhaps it’s because the music industry is a self-made world that has given rise to everything from Novation’s widely acclaimed and iconic Launchpad,
with billions of views on YouTube, to synthesizers that carry a unique sonic influence. Behind the scenes of countless musical works that drive the music industry, Novation wants to be the force that propels the creative potential of individuals and many future musical works.
We understand well that music creation takes time. It’s much like a journey. Our role is to make it easy to start and, at the same time, make it endless. Your studio is a refuge, a place to immerse yourself, experiment, explore, and fully express yourself. This is why we have a passion for diversity. The more tools you have, the more dimension your space gains. Therefore, we collaborate with our fellow innovators in the music technology world, such as Ableton, Amplify, Elektron, Roland, Korg, Splice, Melodics, and many others. All of us, together, strive to ensure your creative space is as efficient as possible.
And of course, it’s not just us carrying out these missions. Novation has 7 other brands with the same goals
