7 – TONE Knob

Here, the “twelve o’clock” position is the default
suggested by TC Electronic. By turning the knob
counter-clockwise, the high-end frequencies are
attenuated. In most cases, this allows the repeats to
blend better with the overall sound.
The TONE knob is not just a regular bass/treble
controller. Its function and effect on your sound
depends on the selected delay type. Typically, you will
have a range from “grindy” to “studio quality” at your
disposal when going from counter-clockwise to
clockwise.

8 – MOD Knob

With the MOD knob, you can add modulation to the
delay repeats. Two modulation types are available:
Vibrato (VIB) and Chorus (CHO). Turn the knob
clockwise to gradually add lush chorus or counter-
clockwise to add vibrato. This easy-to-use feature
ensures that only the delay repeats are being
modulated.

9 – FX.LEVEL Knob

With the FX.LEVEL knob, you only adjust the level of
the delay repeats – not the dry signal. The dry source

signal is always passed 1:1 through the pedal (unless
you turn it off using the KillDry function).

Please note that with the FX LEVEL knob
turned fully clockwise, the sum of the delay and
the dry signal can boost your signal by up to 6
dB.

11/16 – TYPE Indicator and Button

Use the TYPE button to select between six different
delay types. To hear the default settings for each delay
type, set all knobs of the NOVA Repeater to 12 o’clock
position.

“Studio”: This is a standard high-quality delay line,
inspired by the legendary TC 2290. Try our suggested
defaults for a cool studio delay by setting TONE and
MOD controls to the 12 o’clock position.

“Analog”: The popular analog delay type is easily
recognizable by a slight coloration of tone and soft
clipping of the high-end frequencies. It is very easy to
make the analog delay type blend in the mix, even with
