Nova - Your tone is everything
The sensation of weight, the grandiose design and overall
build quality instinctively tell you these aren’t just ordinary
stompboxes. They’re so much more – the essence of your
tone!
Built upon the legacy and knowledge of TC’s world-
renowned effects processors the Nova pedals raise the bar
for guitar effect pedals and redefine what it means to be
“state-of-the-art”. The ND-1 Nova Delay offer
uncompromised studio quality effects in a compact floor-
based design.
With 6 different stereo delay types and the option to store
up to 9 presets customizable by an array of style
parameters ranging from vintage tape to digital delay this
pedal easily serves all delay requirements of modern guitar
players who want to create unique sounds.
The ND-1 Nova Delay pedal features 6 different delay
types: Delay Line, Dynamic, Reverse, Ping-Pong, Pan and
Slap-back.
Three different types of modulation (light, medium and
heavy) can be applied to any of the delay types. The
modulation is applied to the delay repeats only which
makes the Nova Delay unique compared to setups where
a delay pedal is used in conjunction with a chorus pedal.
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.
Nova Delay Features:
• 6 studio-quality delay types
• Up to 9 storable user presets plus manual mode
• Easy switching between modes and presets
• Audio Tapping™ - audio-generated tap tempo
• Modulated delay
• True delay spill-over
• Easy color control
- from tape style over analog to digital
INTRODUCTION
SETUP EXAMPLE - MONO/STEREO
5
This setup illustrates how to use the Nova Delay
pedal in a mono setup (one amp only) or stereo
setup (two amps). Effects as reverb or delay are
usually placed as the last effects before the
amplifier. Therefore, - place all drive and
modulation effects prior to the Nova Delay pedal.
If you use the amp/amps to create
overdrive see the “SEND/RETURN
example on the following page.

SETUP EXAMPLE - SEND/RETURN
This example illustrates how to connect your
Nova Delay pedal as a send/return effect in
an effects loop. This is the correct placement
of the Nova if you use the pre-amp section of
the amp for overdrive sounds.
Expand this setup to stereo by connecting
the Nova pedal right output to the return of a
second amp.

Connections
1 - Power
The Nova Delay require 12V DC 300 mA. Use the
power supply provided in the product box or a power
supply with similar specifications.
2 - Inputs
1/4” mono jack connections for signal input. Use left
input for mono signal or use both left and right inputs
for connecting a stereo signal.
3 - Outputs
1/4” mono jack connections for signal output. Use left
output for mono or both outputs for stereo.
Switches
4 - On/Off
This switch has two functions.
- Press and release immediately for standard on/off
function.
- Hold and release for 2 seconds to switch between
manual and preset modes.
5 - Tap Tempo & Audio Tap Tempo
The delay time is always calculated using the current
global tempo and the selected subdivision.
The global tempo can be entered in different ways:
- as dialed using the DELAY knob
- as tapped by tapping the TAP TEMPO switch
- as tapped using the Audio Tap TempoTM feature
Audio Tapping:
Audio tapping is entered by holding down the TAP
TEMPO switch and feeding audio to the input e.g. by
hitting guitar strings.
See also the example in the chapter describing
“Subdivision”.
Example - Tap Tempo using the TAP TEMPO switch
• Tap 1/4 notes on the TAP TEMPO switch.
The TAP TEMPO LED will indicate the tapped
tempo.
This can be done in both “off” and “on” mode.
OPERATION
Example - Tap tempo by audio
• Press and hold the TAP TEMPO switch. When the
outputs are muted, play steady short 1/4 notes on
your instrument. The TAP TEMPO LED will indicate
the tapped tempo.
• Release the switch again.
That’s it - you have now entered the global tempo by
audio.
Knobs
6 - Delay
Adjusts the delay time. When the DELAY knob is in 12
o’clock position the delay time is not altered.
Turn counter-clockwise to reduce the delay time and
clockwise to increase the delay time. The maximum
delay time vary depending on the selected delay type.
Delay Type Max Delay Time
Delay Line 2290ms
Dynamic 2290ms
Reverse 1000ms
Ping Pong 2290ms
Pan 2290ms
Slapback 300ms
7 - Feedback
The FEEDBACK knob sets the amount of delay
returned to the input of the delay line. The higher the
setting the more repeats.
8 - Color
Full control and perfect replica of the source signal
may be the advantage of a digital delay. However, the
delay repeats may at times blend much better if the
high-end frequencies of the repeats are colored.
9
OPERATION
10
The complex Nova Delay color filter allows for shaping
of the delay repeats in styles ranging from tape drive
over analog to digital.
9 - Mod/Level
In addition to the coloration of the delay repeats
controlled by the COLOR knob, you may also add
more or less pitch modulation to the delay repeats.
Pitch modulation on delay repeats is typically known
from older tape-echoes. Three styles of modulation can
be selected pressing the MOD STYLE button.
10 - Mix Level
Sets the overall mix between the dry signal and the
delay repeats.
Selectors
11 - Manual - In manual mode the pedal plays exactly
according to the position of the controls.
12 - Preset - In preset mode the pedal plays according
to the recalled preset. Therefore, if you come from
manual mode the position of the knobs may not match
the currently recalled values.
• Press PRESET once to enter preset mode.
The current preset number is shown. E.g. “P1”
• Press again immediately after to scroll through the
presets: P1, P2, P3......P9, P1, P2 etc.*
When going from manual mode to preset
mode, the position of the knobs probably does
not match the current values.
* It is also possible to scroll through presets using the
TAP TEMPO and ON/OFF switches. Please refer to
the manual section “Additional Features”
