Novation's most affordable hardware controller to
date, Nocturn is an intelligent plug-in controller that promises to
unleash the full potential of all your favorite instruments and
effects. Featuring the latest Automap Universal 2.0 software, exclusive
to Novation controllers, Nocturn provides automatic, instant and
intelligent control of all automatable plug-ins within every major
sequencer, including Pro Tools.
Nocturn features eight
touch-sensitive rotary encoders, each equipped with a bright eleven-LED
ring (ideal for laptop DJs working in a dark club environment). These
are accompanied by eight user-assignable illuminated buttons and a
smooth, professional 45mm cross-fader. The finishing touch is
Novation's unique 'speed dial'; a touch-sensitive rotary encoder that
instantly takes control of whatever your mouse is focused on.
Featuring
a revolutionary new 'heads-up transparent control GUI', Automap
Universal 2.0 places a transparent control map across your computer
screen, to be recalled or hidden at will. Little or no user setup is
required and plug-in control can be exactly the way you want it, no
matter what music software you use. Just boot up the plug-in and you'll
see at a glance how the parameters are automatically assigned to each
of Nocturn's controls. An instant click and control 'learn' function is
also available for quick re-assigning of controls, or for creating your
own controller map in seconds. Multiple page options mean that you can
assign a potentially infinite number of parameters for each plug-in.
Automap
Universal 2.0 also categorizes all your control maps. A simple browsing
facility lets you review all open plug-ins, then quickly switch to
controlling one of them. Automap Universal 2.0 also supports standard
MIDI protocol, providing the same transparent display for quick and
simple assigning of MIDI parameters. This ensures Nocturn can also turn
its hand to controlling a hardware MIDI device, any non-automatable
plug-ins, or your sequencer mixer. Once a 'MIDI map' is created, it can
be saved and recalled via the same map browsing facility. A growing
number of maps will be available to download from www.novationmusic.com
Nocturn's
spacious and tactile control layout, side-mounted USB socket and
ultra-low profile allow it to sit neatly in front of your QWERTY
keyboard or on a larger keyboard such as the SL61. Large, rugged rubber
grips hold it steady while you let rip with your favorite music
software.
Combined, Automap Universal 2.0's heads up transparent
control GUI and Nocturn's touch sensitive dials remove the hassle
inherent in controlling multiple instruments and effects, allowing you
to flow intuitively from one plug-in to the next, leaving you free to
focus on what matters most — your music.
