ADDITIONAL FEATURES

LFO Trigger

Every time the NOVA Modulator is switched on using the ON/OFF switch, the LFO is re-triggered. This is a nice feature that allows you e.g. to sync the tempo of a Tremolo to the tempo of a song and to make sure that the sound is “spot-on” all the time.

Example:

Bypass the NOVA Modulator.

Select the Tremolo effect for Engine A and activate Engine A (the EFFECT switch LED is lit).

Select e.g. 1/8 as subdivision by setting the TIME/FILTER knob within this interval:

Tap the tempo of the song in quarter-notes using the TAP TEMPO switch.

Press ON/OFF in tempo, e.g. on the count of “one”.

The LFO trigger works on all effects. You can e.g. set a Phaser to start at its lowest point and peak on the next “one” count.
