Audio Processor for Listening Environment Improvement

Since 2003, Trinnov Audio has been providing solutions for optimizing listening environments in rooms and is considered a leader in this field based on assessments from renowned sound engineers and loudspeaker manufacturers. No other manufacturer offers such comprehensive solutions for correcting listening conditions, which include optimization of phase response, listening angle/height, bass management, and timing of individual speaker groups taking into account the listening position(s) in the room. NOVA is Trinnov Audio's latest, compact audio processor in a 19-inch rack format.

Upgrade from 2 to 6 channels
NOVA is very modular, allowing you to upgrade from 2 to 6 channels through a simple software update. Whether you add a subwoofer, a second pair of monitors or upgrade to 5.1, all you need to do is purchase additional licenses from your local Trinnov dealer and unlock your NOVA in just a few clicks.

Comprehensive monitor controller
Packed in a shallow 1U chassis, NOVA is deceptively powerful and covers all your monitoring needs from stereo to 5.1. NOVA handles analog and digital signals like no other monitor controller. Connect, align and seamlessly switch between sources and multiple sets of monitors, regardless of their format or connection.

Avid EUCON compliant and fully compatible with La Remote, NOVA allows advanced monitoring control and can easily be integrated to your production tools. It can be set up either as a full monitoring controller or as an embedded audio insert processing toolbox in the loudspeaker path.

Dante and AoIP
As a Dante device, connect NOVA easily within your audio network with low latency (down to 250 microseconds for the Dante network, >25ms for the processing). You can also use NOVA as your main audio interface along with the Dante Virtual Soundcard for direct DAW-to-monitoring integration.

The Trinnov app
With NOVA, the Trinnov User Experience changes dramatically. The first step is to download the Trinnov desktop application to update your software and/or install your software licenses. The app automatically finds your NOVA on the local network and gives you direct access to its user interface.

Streamlined user experience
The Optimizer technlogy is very sophisticated and powerful, but we made it simple to use thanks to a completely redesigned user interface. Our new modern web interface comes with built-in help and a clear menu structure. Using NOVA should be self-explantory, including a setup procedure that will guide you through the process step by step.

New hardware platform
NOVA is the first of a new generation of Trinnov products, based on an entirely redesigned platform, which combines greater modularity, higher performance, enhanced reliability and native support for Audio over IP.  

Improved 3D-Microphone
We improved the measurement microphone with your needs in mind for maximum efficiency, simplicity, and reliability. It is now equipped with phantom power, integrated memory and automated steps to facilitate calibration removing the need to manually input compensation files. 

New DAC and audio core
One of the most important development was the redesign of our main audio board, the Trinnov Audio Core. This new core is not only more powerful, it is also 5 times smaller and efficient. It effectively handles the audio processing and removes the need of an additional computing section and fans. The AD/DA section has also been redesigned around ESS Sabre chipsets. Noise and distortion levels have been reduced at all frequencies, allowing for more accurate monitoring.

La Remote
Use NOVA with our dedicated hardware controller "La Remote". Take control of every function of NOVA at the press of a button. Through an easy drag n drop interface, personalize "La Remote" to your workflow, and adjust the functions and labels of its seven buttons to suit your environment.
