FX Mute
The FX Mute parameter determines how the Reverb and
Delay effects should behave when changing between
presets and when bypassing one of these effects.
Soft:
Delay and Reverbs will “ring out”
Delays have true spillover, meaning that if you e.g. have
a long delay time and the FX Mute parameter is set to
“Soft” the delays will continue even if you change to a
preset that holds completely different delay settings.
Reverbs can also spill over at preset change but will use
the settings in the new preset.
Hard:
Delay and Reverbs will mute.
Tap Master
A preset holds both a subdivision parameter that relates
to the global tapped tempo and also a fixed delay time.
The tap tempo master parameter defines how NOVA
System responds to the global tapped tempo at preset
change.
Preset:
With Tap Master in Preset mode the delay repeats will
play according to the delay time stored with the preset.
As soon as you tap, maybe to make a slight correction,
the tapped tempo plays according to the set subdivision.
Global:
With Tap Master in Global mode the current tapped
global tempo and the set sub-division applies instantly at
preset change.
Boost Lock
Range: On or Off
When Boost Lock is set to “on” you will be able to boost
the amount of dB specified by the Boost Max. parameter
on ALL presets.
EQ Lock
Range: On/off
When EQ is locked the current EQ will be used on ALL
presets.
Routing Lock
Range: On/off
If you always use the same routing you may prefer to
lock the current routing.
FactoryLck (Factory Bank Lock)
Range: On/off
NOVA System comes with a selection of factory presets
to show the many different sounds and effects you can
create with NOVA System. However, as you begin you
create you own bank of presets you may prefer not to be
able to select factory sounds in a live situation. In that
case set Factory Bank Lock to “on”. You will then NOT
scroll through factory banks when you use the bank
up/bank down functions.
SpeakerSim (Speaker Simulator Filter)
Range: On/Off
With the NOVA System speaker simulator you are able to
emulate the attenuation of high-end frequencies that
naturally occurs when playing through guitar-speaker
cabinets.
Use the speaker simulators ”on” option when you
connect the NOVA System outputs directly to recording
inputs of an audio interface (e.g. TC Konnekt), or when
plugging directly into a mixer.
