Levels menu
Basics
• Press LEVELS to access
• Set values using encoders A, B and C
• Change pages using encoder D
Where nothing else is stated the range of the level
parameters is -100 dB to 0 dB.
Volume
Range: -100 dB to 0 dB
Level control that can be positioned either pre or post
effects processing. The position of the volume control is
set by the Position parameter (see also routing
schematic).
Input Gain
Range: 0 dB to 24 dB
Guitars have different output levels. So has pedals you
may have placed before the NOVA System. This is how
you set the correct gain.
• Switch on any pedal in your signal chain that is
placed prior to NOVA System and may boost the
signal
• Strum your guitar as hard as you do when you play
• Adjust the line gain until the “0” appears:
• Then back off a few dB:
• The correct gain is now set and you have unity gain
through NOVA System.
Clipping indication
If you change the input gain considerably, e.g. by
switching to a different guitar or changing levels on a
pedal placed before the NOVA System, the input of the
NOVA System may be clipping. This is indicated by the
small dot in the far rightmost side of the numeric display:
Left Output & Right Output
Range: -100 dB to 0 dB
Individual level control for left and right outputs. These
levels can be set per preset.
Input
Range: Drive or Line
Selects the input. Select “Drive” if you have connected
your guitar to the Drive input and want to utilize the
NOVA Systems Drive effect block.
Select “Line” if you have connected your guitar to the
Line input. (see also routing schematic).
Volume Position
The Volume parameter is typically controlled by an
expression pedal. If you connect an expression pedal to
the pedal input the pedal will control this parameter per
default.
The Volume Position parameter defines where the
volume is controlled. The options are:
Pre: The volume is controlled right
after the Drive section
and before the effects. This allows for effects such as
Delay and Reverb to “hang”, even if you lower the level
using an expression pedal.
Post: The volume is controlled after the effects. This
means that the volume of the entire signal, including
effects, is controlled.
