Basic settings
• Set input sensitivity via the Levels menu according to
the highest pedal level
• Select the Footswitch parameter in the Utility menu
and select Pedal (stomp) or Preset mode
• Select preset (if in preset mode)
• Activate/deactivate effect blocks pressing the effects
switches.
• Calibrate the expression pedal via the pedals menu
• Assign parameters to the expression pedal via the
Pedal menu
In this setup we use the preamp section of your combo
amp to generate the drive. We use the Line input on the
NOVA System and thereby bypass the NOVA Systems
drive section. An expression pedal is connected to pedal
in for real-time control of e.g. volume.
Connections
• Connect guitar to the input of the combo amp.
• Connect the effects loop “send” of the amp to NOVA
Systems Line input.
• Connect left output to the effects loop return (=power
amp in) of your amp. For a stereo setup connect the
NOVA System right output to the effects loop return
(power amp in) of the other amp.
• Connect an expression pedal to the NOVA System
Pedal in.
