INTRODUCTION

The brand new NOVA Repeater delay pedal

NOVA Repeater is our new “no-frills-with-a-sound-that- kills” delay pedal. It’s just the right pedal for you if you are a demanding guitarist who wants instant, high quality and unique results, without any of the fuss! It features the same great sound quality that made our NOVA Delay the first choice delay pedal for Paul Gilbert, Doug Aldrich, Nils Lofgren and Allen Hinds. However, after listening to our guitar-playing community we have trimmed out any excess baggage while including additional features over the NOVA Delay. Finally, we wrapped all this power into a streamlined and very easy to use interface. In short: NOVA Repeater is the essential lean, mean, delaymachine!

Simple, yet effective

NOVA Repeater is all about simplicity. There are no hidden features or complicated functions – you just get the world’s best delays in an affordable and easy-to- use package. Yet it is also feature-rich; being the only pedal in its price range that has a dedicated tap tempo switch and our amazing audio tapping technology that

lets you set the tempo with your playing. And with six types of TC-quality delays and an unsurpassed feature set, NOVA Repeater is quite simply a bargain.

All new features

NOVA Repeater has three delay time ranges labeled for min, mid and max positions. These delay times have been carefully chosen to match the “sweet spot” times used by most guitar players, making it much easier for you to dial in the perfect delay time – even without a display.

The NOVA Repeater features two inputs for instrument or line level signals – which means you can use it equally well in front of your amp or in an effects loop. It also has a “KillDry” switch that makes it possible to use the pedal in a parallel effect loop. This is also a great feature for guitar players who use a mixer to prevent their dry sound from being processed. An FX.Level pot lets you adjust the wet level of your signal, which means that you won’t get annoying level drops on your dry sound – a common problem with other pedals.

INTRODUCTION

NOVA Repeater has a new multi-function knob that lets you control the amount of modulation as well as turn the modulation effect on/off. The chorus has been retuned making more dramatic modulation effects possible and, on top of that, a brand new vibrato mode has been added. This was a major request among NOVA Delay users and makes it possible to emulate classic tape delay wow-and-flutter or create lush modulated pads with a volume pedal.

Again, following numerous user requests, we added a new dual delay types such as 1/4 and 1/8 notes. This stereo delay is one of the secrets behind Steve Lukather famous 80’s sound – just be sure to set the delay time to exactly 400 ms.

NOVA Repeater also features a brand new adaptive dynamic delay that automatically sets the perfect threshold for ducking. No calibration is required – even if you decide to turn up the volume during a solo, NOVA Repeater will automatically adjust the threshold on the fly.

The bottom line

NOVA Repeater lets you focus on playing and always delivers exactly what you are looking for. Great sound, simple to use and more features than any other pedal at this price – what more could you ask for?
