12 – PRESET Button

Press the PRESET button once to enter Preset mode. Press it several times to step through presets. In Preset mode, you can store and recall up to nine different presets. In bank mode up to 18 (2x9) presets can be stored.

Please also refer to the section “Limiting the Number of Presets” in chapter “Presets” of this manual.

13 & 16 – EFFECT Buttons

Use the EFFECT buttons to switch the two effects on or off individually and to set the effect type for each Engine. Press an EFFECT button once to engage that effect’s Engine. Press and hold an EFFECT button to disengage that Engine. Please note that it is not possible to disengage both Engines at the same time. If only one Engine is active and you disengage that Engine, NOVA Modulator will automatically engage the other Engine.

If you want to fully switch off both Engines (i.e., bypass the pedal), use the ON/OFF switch.

Press an EFFECT button several times to select between the different effect types. The available types

are Chorus, Tri-Chorus, Flanger (LED red), Through- Zero-Flanger (LED green), Phaser, Tremolo and Vibrato.

14 & 17 – VARIATION Buttons

The various effect types have so-called variations. E.g., for the Tremolo, there are “hard” and “soft” types. The Chorus has phase tilts. You will find additional information on these variations in the manual section describing the effects.

18 – SPEED LEDs

When LFO SYNC mode is not active, you can change the speed of the two engines individually using the SPEED knobs and the TAP TEMPO switch.

Only one Engines SPEED LED will be lit at any time as the TAP TEMPO switch directly controls the tempo of the other Engine.

(See also the “LFO Sync mode “off” example on page 26).

When LFO SYNC mode is active, the same speed is applied to both Engines. In this case, the speed is
