I know this is completely unrelated but have you updated the Nova to the latest OS? It is really worth it. You get more polyphony, extra filter and oscillator types etc.
The vocal/formant presets that come with the new OS are quite good too.

THe update is free and is user installable. Just download it, put the nova into update mode and play a sysex file from your sequencer.


Getting a hold of another power supply is indeed tricky. Provided the problem is down to a bad power supply and not something inside Nova.

I'd have both checked out by a certified tech. But most techs nowadays are board swappers. makes their life easier.
