SUGGESTED SETTINGS

This section is a short guide on how to achieve different kinds of compression and gating with NOVA Dynamics. In these examples, we will only look at a single engine. Start out by setting all controls at a 12 o’clock (center) position. This is always an excellent starting point.

Notice that the calibration of the pedal and the general output of your pick-ups has a huge influence on where the Threshold knob should be positioned.
