This trio is designed for synth playing and experimenting. With the included stand, you'll be playing your new Peak synth right away, and the included Decksaver cover ensures it'll stay protected when not in use.

Novation Peak 8-Voice Desktop Synth
Peak is an 8-voice desktop polyphonic synthesizer with three New Oxford Oscillators for each voice. The oscillators sound completely analog by being high-quality NCOs (Numerically-Controlled Oscillators), but gain the flexibility of the digital domain with 17 digital wavetables. They can also become a linear FM source using either the analog-sounding NCOs or digital wavetables, so they are able to cross-modulate in a recursive loop.

The synth has a resonant multi-mode analog filter for each voice, and three distortion points for each voice—pre-filter, post-filter and global—in an analog signal chain. Peak is capable of receiving polyphonic aftertouch, which puts expression right at your fingertips. Reverb, delay and chorus effects are at one's disposal, and there is also an onboard arpeggiator.

The modulation system puts a 16-slot modulation matrix and 16 direct assignments in the main controls, cleverly arranged for intuitive patch design and sound editing. There are three ADSR envelopes and two LFOs for each voice, and more elaborate movements and secondary "via" assignments are made just a few menu button presses away. In addition, two animate buttons give live performers instant one-touch transformation of patches.

Peak connects to modular systems via a CV modulation input, and has MIDI I/O on five-pin DIN ports, so other MIDI gear can be connected. Via USB, Peak can be plugged into Mac or PC, where unlimited patches can be kept using the Components software. Track Select buttons jump between banks of eight tracks/channels, and the bottom row of buttons map to Mute, Solo or Record Arm. The top two rows of rotaries, meanwhile, are freely MIDI mappable—yours to assign as you see fit.

Novation Decksaver Peak Cover, Clear
Decksaver protective covers are designed to make your gear last. Manufactured from super durable polycarbonate, a tough transparent plastic with hard-wearing qualities, Decksaver covers are an essential investment to keep your gear in pristine working condition. Decksaver covers are also precision moulded for an exact fit while accommodating cables, and are rigorously tested to shield faders and controls from dust, liquid and accidental impact at home, in transit and in the booth.

Novation Peak Synthesizer Stand
Peak Stand lifts the Peak Synth off the desk (from a choice of two angles) for better placement of controller keyboards or pad controllers. The pair of stands is made of die-cast aluminum, and there are rubber feet on all the corners that come into contact with the desk. Peak Stand ships with four hex bolts, which—accompanied by the pair of stands—replace the wooden ends supplied with the Peak synth.
