NOVA System by TC Electronic presented by Steffen Brix

Here you can hear and see my setup of the NOVA System with 2 amps.. the NOVA has a lot more possibilities than I use - but I'm just one of those guys who likes it very simple :) I mainly use the NOVA System simply because of the great sounding wet effects - and because of the stereo pitch shifting posibilities! And also the small size and weight of this thing is great!

There's only great things to say about the NOVA...the setup, the design - both hardware and software-wise and the sound quality is excellent.

Check it out for yourself :)

Hej Steffen. Wonderful tone. Do you have the external pedal plugged into the drive input or the line input? I have not tried external distortion or overdrive with my Nova System yet and I want to use an external OD sent to a low gain DIST on the NS. Does it take pedals well? Tak! Joe

@ImageRiver

Hey and thanks!

I've always played into to the drive input....but with that said I never use the drive in the Nova... so I don't know how it works with other drives. But it will make your sound more midrangy... for better and for worse. Try out the excellent EMMA Stinkbug for great drive-tones :)

WHY YOU USES THE "FIRST" INPUT IN THE FENDER TWIN REVERB IS BETTER???I HAVE TOTAL SAME GEARS!!!

@MONDOCHITARRA

I'm not sure I understand your question? I think both channels sound equally good on the Fender Twin Reverb..

Hi Nice sound !!!!Do you use Nova on FX loop or front of amp????Thanks.

[steffenbrix]

@odissey04

in front of the amps...

@jr51501 While there is some degree of lag with any unit of this type, I don't see it as an issue with the Nova. Your reference to lag is probably more about the design of the footswitches. Instead of engaging when you step on them, they engage when you release them.  So you press the footswitch just before you want to switch, and when you release the switch the change takes place. It's easy to get used to, and I've found that I actually prefer it that way.

@reallybored32 I haven't tried the m13, but after getting to know my Nova System, I can't imagine ever liking the sound of anything from Line 6 more than I like the Nova. I've had some experience with a few Line 6 products and I don't dislike them; I just think the sound of the Nova is superior. It doesn't sound like something trying to emulate something else.

@ImageRiver It does take pedals very well. I never thought I would want more than one pedal for OD/distortion until I got the Nova System and tried both an OD and a heavy distortion in front of it. Sounds good even when I also add the built-in Drive with both pedals engaged, and with everything in front of the amp. I've had mine for a few weeks now and so far haven't even found the need to try it through the amp's effects loop.

Hey man are you related to Hans Brix?

[reallybored32]

Hey man please respond! i need some help to choose between this and the line 6 m13. i play lots of classic rock, and progressive rock, like rush, EVH, yes, led zepp, and some occasional gnr stuff. i have a strat and a marshall jcm 800 which i love the drive on. which is better if i want the use the drive on my amp and still use the effects and OD from the pedal. THANKS!

Hej Steffen.

Hvis man bruger Dual Delay og man sætter begge tempo på lad os sige det du har med en forskel på 15ms.

Hvad vil den gøre hvis man så laver Tap Tempo? Vil den så sætte begge delay tider til det samme eller stadig holde dem adskilt med 15ms??

[jr51501]

hello

cool sound

could you explain me about the lag.

Is it true?

please...explain it.
