Introduction
Guitarists everywhere – start your engines, because
your tone is about to take a new turn! Introducing
NOVA Drive, TC Electronic’s new dual engine, digitally
controllable, true bypass overdrive/distortion pedal,
featuring the awesome analogue drive circuit ported
from the acclaimed TC NOVA System.
NOVA Drive brings you the great sounding analog
circuits from NOVA System, with all the digital control
that modern guitarists demand. The result: a classic
“old-school” sound that will send shivers down your
spine and paint a wide grin on your face at every riff,
lick and face-melter, along with digital control options
that enable you to integrate NOVA Drive into your set-
up and tailor the sound with total precision, giving you
more control, more confidence, and ultimately a better
performance. Finally, you have a platform to create,
store and recall all the distorted and overdriven sounds
you could ever need: NOVA Drive.
Features
Programmable All-analog Drive Circuit
Most guitar players know that analog circuits sound far
superior to digital ones – but the control options that
the digital domain brings are just too convenient to
ignore. NOVA Drive brings you the best of both worlds.
True Bypass
The true bypass design of NOVA Drive makes sure the
pedal won’t mess with your tone when you don’t want
it to. You can also select a high-quality buffered
bypass.
Extensive Routing Options
The extensive routing options of NOVA Drive allow for
a wide tonal palette – and a chance to let your aural
imagination run wild! Route the guitar signal through
the engines in any desired order. And even when the
results should be unexpected, they will always sound
great and enhance your music.
