TC electronic SDN BHD NR-1 User Manual

Built upon the legacy and knowledge of TC’s world­renowned TC 2290 Dynamic Digital Delay and leg­endary reverb processors the release of the Nova
pedals raises the bar for guitar effect pedals and
redefines what it means to be “state-of-the-art”. The
ND-1 Nova Delay and NR-1 Nova Reverb offer
uncompromised studio quality digital effects in a
compact floor-based design.

Your tone is everything. TC knows you have numerous
choices when considering effects that will capture
and enhance the sounds that are in your head. Many
manufacturers offer digital delay and reverb solutions,
but none can compare with the overall performance
and tonal quality of TC’s Nova series.

ND-1 Nova Delay

The ND-1 Nova Delay pedal features 6 different
delay types: Delay line, dynamic, reverse, ping-pong,
pan and slap-back and each of these types can be
combined with a delay style ranging from vintage
tape to modern digital delay. This unique feature allows
you to mix and match your delay type and style to
create unique sounds.

The Nova Delay has two settings: Manual, which rep­resents the current position of the knobs and Preset,
which is a stored sound that can be recalled at any time.

Both single delay and dual delay lines can be applied
to any type and style using the tap tempo switch or
delay time knob to determine the speed of the delay.
Three different types of modulation (light, medium
and heavy) can be applied to any of the delay types
– a feature originating from the legendary TC 2290
Dynamic Digital Delay processor.

The all-new Audio Tapping™ technology enables you
to set the tempo of the delay by playing a rhythm into
the pedal while holding down the tap tempo switch.
You can now set the tempo of the delay using your
most important asset: Your
playing.

Other great Nova Delay features include the ability to
choose between ms (millisecond) and bpm (beats
per minute) readout, decide if you want spillover on
none, one or both settings and turn global tempo –
where tap tempo determines the delay time on both
settings - on and off.

NR-1 Nova Reverb

The NR-1 Nova Reverb features 5 different reverb
types: room, spring, hall, plate and specials. Choose
between anything from the warm vintage sounding
Classic Spring to the pristine and stunningly realistic
TC Classic Hall or any setting in between.

The Nova Reverb has two settings selectable via the
two footswitches: Manual, which represents the cur­rent position of the knobs and Preset, which is a
stored sound that can be recalled at any time.

The Nova Reverb also has a unique new feature
called DynaMix™. DynaMix™ acts as a dynamic duck­ing effect that turns down the reverb while you’re
playing and turns it back up again when you’re not
playing. This prevents the sound from getting muddy
– especially when using large hall reverb types – but
will still give you that huge live venue effect while the
notes decay. The DynaMix™ effect can also be
reversed, so the reverb is turned up while playing
and gated when the input signal falls below a certain
level, producing a truly unique and out-of-this-world
effect.

Features

• 5 studio quality digital stereo reverb types

• Two switchable settings: manual and preset

• DynaMix™ - dynamic ducking reverb
